What do you love about design?
Even after doing it for 20 years, I still get a buzz when I have a new creative brief to think about.
Why do you teach?
It feels good to share some of the knowledge I have acquired over the years. Plus I get a creative kickback that inspires my own work.
Tell us about your design career outside of Shillington.
Graphic design has taken me far and wide, from studying and cutting my teeth in Melbourne, to design studios in London, Fabrica in Italy and then on to the Amsterdam design scene. My work is as eclectic as the places in which it has been created.
What or who are you loving right now?
Not new, but new to me: Studio Frith—the award-winning, London-based studio of Frith Kerr. I’m loving their artful branding and typographic prowess.
If you were a typeface, what would you be?
Depends on the brief: whether it’s for Sarah the designer, Sarah the mother or the Sarah of my imagination.
