Issue #04: Worth 

Eye on Design #04 is the “Worth” issue, filled with stories that question the way we value design—measured in money, power, influence, and feelings. Come along as we:

• Chart the rise of design’s women CEOs.
• Calculate empathy as a budgetary item.
• Scratch our heads over the whole Universal Basic Income thing.
• Map the trail of designers flocking to the West Coast.
• Figure out who’s making money in graphic design—and how the hell they’re doing it.

Sneak peek at the Table of Contents:

• New global survey of gender equality at design conferences—you’ll want to see our tally of the speakers who got the most time on stage.
• Rare conversation with 1970s aerosol artist PHASE 2, whose flyers defined hip-hop style.
• Road trip to the lab where the world’s most valuable shade of red is being made—we have the photos to prove it.
