There’s a nimble team working behind Good Company magazine, a small handful of us who put together the biannual print magazine celebrating the intersection of creativity and business. Under Grace‘s direction, we aim to tell stories of underrepresented points of view, and the person bringing the vision and spirit of those stories to life is our Art Director, George McCalman.
George is brimming with a skill set in his artistic journey that makes him a Jack of all trades in design, and his varied projects — including a monthly illustrated column with the San Francisco Chronicle — season his work at McCalman Co. and make his eye for unique and smart design sharper by the day. Today we’re thrilled to have George sharing a glimpse into his process for designing and art directing Good Company, as well as his creative path and how it’s influenced his work over the years. And I’ve already picked up a new favorite tip from my fellow collaborator: “Try: all of it.” —Kelli
