    I've been noticing something fascinating happening in design right now – While AI innovation rushes forward, there's this equally powerful pull back towards handcrafted work and genuine connection. But, rather than feeling pressured to chase every trend (who has the time!?), through insights from Creative Boom's latest industry report this episode shares which 2025 design trends actually matter for small creative businesses, and how they might best complement what you already do brilliantly. These insights from leading design studios reveal opportunities that play to your natural strengths rather than working against them – and isn't that the kind of trend worth paying attention to?   Key Moments: [01:53] Introduction to Creative Boom's 2025 design trends report [03:03] The importance of balancing trend awareness with authentic creative values [04:14] The AI-Human Balance: AI moving beyond ideation to final outputs [06:09] The counter-movement: returning to handcrafted, human-centered design [07:43] The #StarterPackNoAI movement as an example of reclaiming creative space [09:22] The return to physical experiences and creating meaning in a digital world  [12:28] The craft renaissance: personalisation, sustainability, and technology integration [14:25] Design experimentation and breaking away from template-driven sameness [16:30] "Minimalist Maximalism" as an emerging visual approach  [18:50] How these trends create opportunities for small creative businesses   Notable Quotes: "The most successful creative businesses don't blindly follow every trend but thoughtfully incorporate relevant elements that align with their own authentic approach." "This isn't an either/or situation but a rebalancing, where we're getting clearer about where technology adds value and where human creativity remains irreplaceable." "Your greatest asset isn't about how well you follow trends—it's your capacity to create work that only you could make, infused with your combination of skills, experiences, and perspective."   Resources Mentioned: Read: This Week's Full Journal Post Previous Episode Mentioned: What's Really Working On Instagram In 2025 Read: Creative Boom Report, by Katy Cowan: "Design trends for 2025: creative leaders share their vision for the year ahead" Read: Metricool's 2024 Social Media Report Ref: Photographer - Pippa MacKenzie's LIFE photo albums Ref: Design Agencies Mentioned: Wolff Olins Global (Brand Consultancy), Red Antler (Marketing Agency), Rosie Wilson-The #StarterPackNoAI Movement (Illustrator), Jamhot, Fold7Design, Design LSC, Tavern, Bedow, How Studio, DesignUps, SomeOne Website: www.philippacraddock.com Email: news@philippacraddock.com   Share Your Insights: I'd love to hear which of these design trends resonates most with your creative business.

Welcome to The Spark—your weekly creative pick-me-up from The Creative Boom Podcast. Every Thursday, we bring you a shorter, snappier episode filled with inspiration, creative news, and practical tips to carry you through the week. Whether you need motivation or insights, we've got you covered! This week on the podcast, we had the absolute pleasure of hosting Christopher Doyle, who brightened up the winter gloom with his Aussie warmth and charm. He opened up about something we don't talk about enough in the creative industry: The Great Unknown. What is it, exactly? If you haven't tuned in yet, make sure you do. But to give you a taste—it's that constant barrage of brilliant design work online. You're having a great day, feeling good about your work, and then bam, you see something that's so good it stops you in your tracks. Sometimes, it inspires, but other times, it chips away at your confidence. In our chat, Chris offers some great advice to help combat that common feeling. Now, let's move on to this week's creative news. First up, Oxford University Press has announced its Word of the Year for 2024: brain rot. It captures the collective unease over endless scrolling and its impact on mental well-being. Defined as the decline of intellectual sharpness due to an overconsumption of trivial online content, it struck a chord, particularly with younger generations navigating the highs and lows of digital life. In tech news, wearable devices like smartwatches and health rings are making waves in personal health tracking, with proposals for integrating them into NHS care. While they've been praised for encouraging healthier habits, doctors caution against overreliance on these gadgets, reminding us that no device can replace professional diagnostics. Still, the shift towards at-home care keeps the debate alive. Over on LinkedIn, AI-generated writing has quietly become the norm, with more than half of long-form English posts now likely written by AI. While these tools make polished posts a breeze, critics worry about the loss of authenticity. On a platform often dominated by corporate speak, though, it seems the line between human and machine-generated content is getting blurrier—and perhaps, for some, that's okay. In our Spotlight segment, Creative Boom celebrates the resilience and growth of its community in 2024. Illustrator Marloes Devries shared how saying no to misaligned projects led to her best financial year yet while also helping other artists by passing on opportunities. It's a reminder that success isn't just about output; it's about making thoughtful choices and leaning into the support of your community. For our Book of the Week, we're recommending How Life Works by Philip Ball. This fascinating read explores the cutting-edge world of modern biology, from reprogramming cells to redesigning living systems in ways evolution never imagined. It's an inspiring look at how these scientific leaps are reshaping what we know about life—and hinting at what might be possible in the future. Now for our Tip of the Week: as the festive season approaches, managing the end-of-year chaos is key. Ruthless prioritisation is your best friend—focus on what must get done, communicate clear boundaries to clients, and let go of the rest. A little self-care doesn't hurt either. Wrap up strong, and you'll be set to start 2025 on the right foot. Looking ahead, we've got Joseph Parsons joining us on Monday. By day, he's a graphic designer; by night, he's a stand-up comedian about to go on tour with his new gig, Re-designed. Don't miss it—it's bound to be a riot. After Joe, we'll chat with Jessi Brattengeier from The New York Times, and then we'll round off the season with our festive Christmas Special featuring some familiar faces. Until Monday!

Welcome to The Spark—your weekly creative pick-me-up from The Creative Boom Podcast. Every Thursday, we bring you a shorter, snappier episode filled with inspiration, creative news, and practical tips to carry you through the week. Whether you need motivation or insights, we've got you covered! This week, host Katy Cowan sat down with Khyati Trehan, a designer and 3D visual artist currently based at Google Creative Lab in New York. Khyati shared a glimpse into one of the most innovative creative spaces in the world—a rare treat! What stood out most was how she juggles working at the cutting edge of technology, collaborating on personal projects like visual designs for her sister's music, and decompressing with reality TV. She opened up about how she avoids burnout while staying energised and inspired, even in the high-pressure environment of Google. Khyati also discussed generative AI, emphasising that while it's a tool to enhance creativity, "writing prompts doesn't make you an artist". For her, AI is a collaborator, not a replacement, expanding what's possible without diminishing the joy of creating. If you've ever wondered how someone can stay ahead and balance so many creative pursuits without losing momentum, this episode is for you! In Creative News this week, Spotify unveiled new features for video podcasting, including ad-free viewing for Premium users and an audience-driven payout model. With over 640 million users, Spotify is rapidly growing its video podcast offerings to rival YouTube. Meanwhile, Bluesky reassured users it won't use content to train generative AI tools, setting it apart from platforms like X. While exploring ways to protect user consent, the platform continues to grow, now hosting 17 million users. And gaming is shifting toward live-service titles, driven by Gen Z's love of social interaction and self-expression. With in-game purchases accounting for 67% of global gaming income in 2023, these games are blurring lines with social media, hosting events like concerts and TV premieres. In The Spotlight this week, we highlight Creative Boom's feature on how design leaders are preparing for 2025. Despite economic challenges, studios are focusing on purpose-driven work, AI as a creative collaborator, and fostering internal culture. Leaders predict a future of meaningful partnerships and sustainable practices, ensuring creative work aligns with both client and employee expectations. Our Book of the Week is WipEout Futurism: The Graphic Archives, a deep dive into the iconic video game that revolutionised gaming and graphic design. With rare concept art and interviews, this book celebrates the groundbreaking work of The Designers Republic and the game's sci-fi-inspired branding. This week's Tip focuses on finding happiness in creative work. Strategies include balancing work with personal life, embracing self-expression, and practising mindfulness. Remember, happiness is a work in progress, built through small, meaningful steps. In our Letters to the Editor, listener Sarah Turner wrote in about this week's guest, Khyati Trehan: "I loved how she described AI as a collaborator. Her perspective reminded me that these tools can enhance creativity rather than diminish it." While Ben Mottershead shared his reflections on last week's chat with Dave Sedgwick: "I resonated deeply with the discussion on rethinking goals. Starting my own agency was a dream, but I realised it's not all it's cracked up to be. I'm now focusing on what truly matters." Don't miss next Monday's episode, where Katy chats with Barrington Reeves, creative director and founder of Too Gallus in Glasgow. They'll explore the shift from traditional agencies to smaller, agile studios and the economic challenges but great opportunities facing the industry. See you then!

Welcome to The Spark—your weekly creative pick-me-up from The Creative Boom Podcast. Each Thursday, we bring you a shorter, snappier episode packed with inspiration, creative news, and practical tips to fuel your creative journey as the week winds down. This week, we reflect on our conversation with Lisa Smith, global executive creative director at JKR in New York. Lisa was open and honest, sharing her experiences in the creative industry, the challenges faced by women, and the value of hard work. We discussed the importance of community, cultural differences in design, and what it takes to reach the top. If you haven't listened yet, download the episode—it's a brutally honest chat with which many of you will resonate. For this week's creative news highlights, marketing budgets are on hold. The latest IPA Bellwether Report reveals a pause in UK marketing budget growth due to uncertainty surrounding the upcoming Budget, marking the first stall in 14 quarters. We also shared cosy games for mental health. Games like Animal Crossing and Pokémon are helping players cope with anxiety and depression, offering a soothing escape and a sense of community. And Bluesky surges in popularity. Jack Dorsey's decentralised social network, Bluesky, is now a top-five social app following changes at X (formerly Twitter), driving users to seek alternatives. This week's Spotlight article on Creative Boom tackles a question that many creatives face: where's the best place to work as a creative—agency, in-house, or freelance? It explores the pros and cons of working in these different scenarios. It's a must-read for anyone considering a change or starting out in the industry. Our Book of the Week is Legal Roadmap for your Creative Business by Kiffanie Stahle. This guide simplifies the legal side of running a creative business, offering clear steps to protect your assets without getting lost in jargon. Choosing the right fonts can make or break a design. Here's a quick rundown: match the font to the brand's personality, prioritise readability, consider technical aspects, and always test across different media.

Welcome to The Spark—your weekly creative pick-me-up from The Creative Boom Podcast. Each Thursday, we bring you a shorter, snappier episode packed with inspiration, creative news, and practical tips to fuel your creative journey as the week winds down. Whether you need a quick shot of motivation or insights to carry you through, we've got you covered. We reflected on this week's interview with Luigi Carnovale, in which we focused on the art of reinvention. Luigi shared his insights on navigating new tech, client demands, and personal evolution as a creative. His message? Business is about people, and we are in control of our own paths. If you've been feeling stuck, his words will inspire you to embrace change, just as he has. In this week's Creative News roundup, D&AD's 2024 Annual Showcase highlights the best creative campaigns and trends, such as fandoms and textural evolution, to inspire the next generation. Headspace introduced Ebb, a generative AI chatbot to support mental health with personalised real-time conversations. Finally, teenage gamer Michael Artiaga made history by resetting Tetris after reaching the highest level. Gosh, it's an amazing feat. I can hear the music in my head now. How it didn't drive him mad, I'll never know. But, understandably, he confessed he'll never play it again. For The Spotlight, we looked at the independent type foundries set to shine in 2025. From Jessica Walsh's emotionally driven Type of Feeling to Grilli Type's standout creations, these foundries offer fresh, experimental fonts that push boundaries. And the best part? We had nothing to do with the final cut; it was all down to you, the creative community, as you shared your favourites. Our Book of the Week is Never Play It Safe by Chase Jarvis, a manifesto for creatives looking to embrace intuition and risk-taking. Drawing from his experiences as an award-winning photographer and entrepreneur, Jarvis offers practical strategies for breaking out of our comfort zone, pursuing bold ideas, and building a fulfilling life rooted in personal passion. Doesn't it feel appropriate, given this week's conversation with Luigi? We thought so. In our Tip of the Week, we look at how to differentiate yourself. And one way to stand out in a crowded creative industry is by embracing vulnerability. Share your authentic experiences—audiences connect more deeply with honesty than perfection. There's lots more advice on this theme in the article on Creative Boom, so be sure to check it out. We received different responses from listeners about recent podcast episodes for our Letters to the Editor this week. Mike, an illustrator from Leeds, shared how Seema Sharma's discussion on AI completely changed his perspective, leaving him more optimistic while affirming that the human touch remains irreplaceable. On the other hand, Amara, a creative director from London, expressed concern about AI, cautioning against over-reliance on machines at the risk of losing the originality that defines creativity. Another letter from James, based in Devon, reflected on Luigi's experiences in the design industry. James related to Luigi's decision to leave the city, sharing how his move from London to his hometown led to unexpected creative opportunities while maintaining connections in the capital. What about you? What do you think? We'd love to hear from you! If you have any thoughts on this episode or anything else from the show, drop us a line at letters@creativeboom.com, and we might feature your email in next week's episode of The Spark. On Monday, Lisa Smith, global executive creative director at JKR, will join us. She will share hard-hitting insights on leadership, creativity, and building a career at the top. Don't miss it!

Before we bid another year farewell, we thought a nice festive special might be in order where we bring back some former guests from the show and see how they're all doing. We're talking motion designer Dan Silverstone, illustrative designer Lisa Maltby, cultural champion Boma Krijsman, graphic designer Kieron Lewis, illustrator Katie Chappell, design director and podcaster Harrison Wheeler, and artist and illustrator Barney Ibbotson. We even say hello to our old Creative Boom friend and our resident designer, Andy Mallalieu, of Nine Sixty. Of course, Christmas means different things to different people. For those who aren't religious or don't formally mark the occasion, it's still a special time of year with family and friends, where we might be a little kinder to one another and find a moment to take stock. And also eat far too many Quality Streets. It's been an especially tough 12 months for many of us. So, as we wind down for the festive break, we wanted to ask our guests a series of festive questions – you know, the important stuff like favourite Christmas movies and what pet peeve from the creative industry they might ask Santa to get rid of, that sort of thing. We even get a visit from the big man himself: good old Saint Nicholas. Alongside plenty of laughs, we get some real heartwarming stuff, too, and discover the best advice everyone has and their message to the creative community for the year to come. A word of warning. There is a little colourful language in this episode. It's why we've marked it as explicit. We hope you don't mind. After the year we've had personally, we just wanted to let loose and have some fun. On behalf of everyone at Creative Boom, have a wonderful Christmas and here's to a peaceful and prosperous 2024!

It's been two years and nearly a hundred episodes since we launched The Creative Boom Podcast. With 2023 fast approaching, we thought a Christmas Special might be in order. One that celebrates how far we've come and pays tribute to the people who helped us get here but also allows us to look ahead and consider what's next. What better way to do so than return to our very first guest? And that's Malcolm Garrett. The esteemed graphic designer and creative director also happens to be one of the co-founders of Design Manchester, an annual festival in our home city and one that holds a special place on the international design calendar. It's actually where we headed last month to meet Malcolm but also catch up with other former guests of our show plus meet some new names. It seemed particularly fitting to make our Christmas Special during Design Manchester, as this year's theme is about Legacy – something that honours the late great Professor David Crow of the Manchester School of Art, who was one of the champions and supporters of the festival. Held in the Benzie Building of the esteemed art school, the event meant that everyone was reflecting on the legacy of Design Manchester as well as their own creative journeys, and how that legacy plays into the future. It was an honour to capture some of that reflection for Creative Boom – much of which we'll share now. And to just add a little fun, we asked everyone for their own Christmas memories – a time of year that means something different from one person to the next. But whether good or bad, it was agreed that the festive season brings people together. And I also asked about new year resolutions and how they feel about 2023. We kicked things off with Malcolm but then also chatted with former Creative Review editor Patrick Burgoyne, creative director and stylist Harris Elliott, graphic designer and artist Ian Swift aka Swifty, graphic artist Anthony Burrill, designer and artist Sarah Boris, artist and illustrator Stanley Chow, designer and digital whizz Zoë Hitchen, material and performance artist and artistic director Naitiemu Nyanjom, designer and illustrator Jane Bowyer, designer Ian Anderson of The Designers Republic, and Sir Misha Black Awards Chairman and Arts University Bournemouth Honorary Fellow, Mary V Mullin. That's it for Season Five of The Creative Boom Podcast. We're going to take a short break, but we will be back in 2023 with lots of new guests, covering many different themes – topics important to you as a creative professional. Until then, from myself and everyone at Creative Boom, we wish you a Merry Christmas and a prosperous and peaceful New Year.

Female leadership is on everyone's radar, as the industry works to reverse the sad statistics of the gender split at the top. While we should be celebrating the women who've made it there, not many people are asking, how did you manage it? With all the barriers and biases in the way, how did you tackle them? Especially in environments that aren't set up for women to succeed.In this week's episode, we hypothesise that the changing of the tide might not be because the industry is creating space for female leadership, but because women are altering their working style to mimic their male counterparts. We're talking to four female leaders and asking them some really difficult questions about how authentic they've been during their career, whether they code-switch, what they've witnessed in female colleagues, and whether looking back, they believe they've carved a path they want other women to follow.Livia Lima, Freelance Design Director & Lecturer at UTS talks about the stereotypes she's witnessed being a Brazilian woman, and how she's embarrassed to have suppressed some of the attributes she believes make her a great leader.Katy Cowan, Founding Editor of Creative Boom tells some shocking stories from her career, and what she can do to ensure young female creatives do not have the same experience she did.Rebecca Harrison, Creative Director of Love Blood Creative recalls women she's worked with who have defended their hard-won title, and challenges the notion that all women lead with empathy. Jack Renwick, Founder & Creative Director of Jack Renwick Studio opens up her meeting room and tells us what goes on inside – how she runs a successful studio in the face of clients who want her to fulfil a stereotype. An incredible conversation with candid anecdotes from the industry. And a level of introspection that digs deeper into whether we're truly addressing the gender imbalance in our studios. –Hosted & created by Katie CadwellEdited by James from Be HeardOriginal music 'Theme From NDA' by Jamie Ellul & Toby McLarenStatistics from Creative Equals 'Future Leaders 2021' Hosted on Acast.

Is it possible to go from an introverted child who wanted nothing to do with adults and the outside world to speaking on stages, working at Martha Stewart, hosting a radio show, and having a TEDx talk that has surpassed 6 million views? Sounds like a huge leap, but that's exactly what my amazing guest has done! She'll tell you that even today she's still somewhat of an introvert (and scared as hell to do things) but that doesn't hold her back from speaking up and using her voice, both on the page and in her business as an award-winning writer, speaker, and brand advisor.  Today on The Karen Kenney Show, we're talking to my friend and fellow Gateless Writing Instructor, Terri Trespicio! In our conversation, we lay it all on the table - from our childhood experiences, to life as a writer, to stepping out of the boxes that society loves to put us in, especially as women. We also dive into what I call Terri's remarkable ability to extract a person's inner genius, how to “unmute yourself” in conversations with others, and why the question, “What do you do?” sends so many of us into a tizzy.

How do you actually use your assumptions, experiences, and messaging to create a brand that truly connects with and speaks to people? Today Dava Guthmiller and I are going to tackle that very question. Dava is a believer in connections - what connects people with brands, eaters with foods, businesses with environments, creativity with the process, and communities with each other. We talk a lot about the creative process, the emotion behind all forms of creativity, and the role of empathy in the creative process as well as in connecting with your audience, be they consumers, constituents, or communities.  Key Takeaways:Emotion matters to brand. There are emotions in the act of creativity for the creator and in the act of consumption from the consumer. An empathetic brand comes down to the people - not just what you're putting out, but how are you creating interaction and conversation.Listen and connect with those outside of your standard sphere, you never know what you will learn.  "You either confirm five assumptions or you discover 100 opportunities.

We talk a lot about the creative process, the emotion behind all forms of creativity, and the role of empathy in the creative process as well as in connecting with your audience, be they consumers, constituents, or communities.  Key Takeaways:Emotion matters to brand. There are emotions in the act of creativity for the creator and in the act of consumption from the consumer. An empathetic brand comes down to the people - not just what you're putting out, but how are you creating interaction and conversation.Listen and connect with those outside of your standard sphere, you never know what you will learn.  "You either confirm five assumptions or you discover 100 opportunities. It's better to discover the opportunities first, and then go ahead and confirm assumptions afterwards, if you feel like you need to." —  Dava Guthmiller About Dava Guthmiller: Dava Guthmiller, Founder and Chief Creative, Noise13Co-Founder, InVisible Talks and InVisible VenturesDava Guthmiller is a believer in connections--what connects people with brands, eaters with foods, businesses with environments, creativity with the process, and communities with each other.As the Founder and Chief Creative Officer at Noise 13, the San Francisco brand strategy and design agency, she is the driver behind building thoughtful, sustainable brands.

The Possibility Club is a peek under the bonnet of business, culture and education, chatting with the change-makers and rebels. Richard Freeman's special guest this week is Vincent Kamp. Vincent is a figurative painter, comic book writer and sculptor. The website Creative Boom describes him as ‘one of Britain's most evocative and exciting new artists' whose paintings are rooted in a ‘world of urban subculture' that ‘delves beneath the surface of social class'. As much influenced by cinematography as the master painters, Vincent's canvasses depict lifelike characters from the underworld of crime and sport - as if Rembrandt was documenting the Kray twins - getting under the skin of gangsters, boxers, poker players in the shadows of East London and elsewhere. Vincent is self-taught, yet is setting the art world alight, winning the TAF Artist of the Year Award in 2017 and with high profile exhibitions represented by London's Clarendon Fine Art Gallery. Vincent has painted a number of household names in sport and music, from Paula Radcliffe and Sir Chris Hoy to Sam Smith and pianist Ruben James and has many works in the collection of Italian cycling legend Francesco Moser. We spoke in mid-April 2018 about creativity and productivity, audiences and criticism - and Vincent's own mission to tell visual stories in new ways. --- Useful links: http://vincekamp.com/ http://www.clarendonfineart.com/artist_biography/vincent-kamp https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zrkmaQ3z_CU --- The Possibility Club is a place for creative thinkers to navigate the world together.
