As I got older, my fondness for their colors and songs turned to admiration as I learned more about them. Flight patterns, color dimorphism, adaptive radiation—all carefully curated through time and evolution. It made me realize that what I love about birds is what I love about design: each feature is created with intention; each change has purpose. I center research in my process to uncover the beautiful secrets of change—to create revolutionary work that's never been seen before.
So let's take flight and evolve beyond what is already known.
