Life Lessons from a Large Man


Sometime around 2006 I discovered the blog of Aaron James Draplin and I’m a better designer for it. Draplin creates timeless designs and provides memorable commentary from his studio in Portland, OR. He’s had a hand in designing many of the products I love from the branding for Coal Headwear, to the creation of Field Notes, and even t-shirts for Patagonia.
Whether you’re a designer or just breathing air on this little blue planet, do yourself a favor: watch this man speak. His ramblings are worth the price of admission, which is free – ‘aint the internet great? So take the time and learn something. I’m a better man today because of the shit that comes out of his mouth.
