S2 E06 - Spencer Nugent - Lets Talk Design

This week on Lets Talk Design I met with Spencer Nugent, founder of the widely popular ‘Sketch-a-day’ educational channel. Spencer's passion for sketching has led him to write a range of popular books as well as become an educator on Hector Silvas's Offsite online design education course. On the podcast, we discuss Spenser’s design philosophy where he considers the detrimental effect of being too self-critical as a designer. We also discuss the environment that led him to create ‘Sketch-a-day’. Further, we discuss whether anyone can be great at sketching or if it is a pre-determined skill. Spencer also discusses his contribution to Offsite, discussing who this course is best suited to. Finally, we discussed the long-lasting effect his platform will have on the wider design community. I hope you enjoy the podcast, and if you do would you consider subscribing and sharing the podcast with a friend to help grow the platform. If there is someone you would like to see on the podcast reach out to me through the comments section or through social media, and I will be happy to get them on.
