Your creative hotline with Ayden Lindsay and Ty YamamotoIn Episode 13, 'Can’t Ctrl+Z That!', we dive into the magic of handmade elements in design. With AI taking over everything (seriously, it’s getting a little creepy), some designers are bringing back that ‘human touch’—whether it’s with actual hand-drawn stuff or just a messy, perfectly imperfect brushstroke. Because let’s face it, every design still needs a little bit of human chaos to make it work!We picked Neue Haas Grotesk for our Font of the Week and reviewed our posters.
