Honoured to have had another opportunity to collaborate with the incredible team InVision to produce a new series of illustrations for the handbook Business thinking for designers inspired by the story of Alice in Wonderland.
The overall theme of the book was around Alice as the designer going on a difficult adventure: From a 'normal', 'regular', 'grayscale' world to uncovering a new brilliant universe with a greater understanding of her surroundings, how everything fits together, and how to thrive. Throughout her journey, she encounters new friends, a few foes, and challenges. Metaphorically highlights how one could bring a business mind to design, and transform the company and your career.
The book is written by Ryan Rumsey, a veteran of Apple and Electronic Arts design. Pleasure to have collaborated with Aaron Stump of Invision on the creative direction on these illustrations
