Cotton Bureau created a community of design loving t-shirt wearers to support fellow designers and find ridiculously comfy tees. Now, they’re scaling up with the help of a new space and VC funding to launch they’re new project — Blank by Cotton Bureau. On this episode of Well Made, Cotton Bureau founders Nathan Peretic and Jay Fanelli drop the big news about why and how they're making they’re own tees from scratch, why they raised their seed round and how Pittsburgh has impacted their brand ethos. Visit the Lumi Blog for more more on Blank by Cotton Bureau, and photos of some awesome tees.
Jay Fanelli, co-founder of Cotton Bureau, joins Gary Rozanc to discuss the skills necessary to be a contemporary designer such as designing micro interactions, and design systems (not style guides). Jay also discusses the specifics on the need to produce high fidelity prototypes before getting too far along in the visual design process. Finally, the conversation goes into what a designer’s portfolio should like, what it shouldn’t, and how non visual design choices can say more about the portfolio than the work itself.
Jay Fanelli co-founder of Cotton Bureau joins Gary Rozanc to discuss getting started in the interactive design field, specifically how to build a portfolio from scratch. Jay also talks about how print design is different from interactive design because of the multitude of devices a website will be viewed on. Continuing the chat, Jay shares insight on what it takes to succeed as an interactive designer from knowing when to learn from imitating the work of others to knowing the right amount of HTML, CSS, and Javascript. Finally, Jay talks about the CMS behind Cotton Bureau, and how designers are going to be expected to at least know the choices out there to help inform clients.
Jay Fanelli and Nathan Peretic know how to go it on their own. They've done it not just once, not just twice, but now three times. They formed the interactive-services company Full Stop Interactive, out of which United Pixelworkers was formed, a company that produces fine wearable merchandise. And United Pixelworkers gave birth to Cotton Bureau, a site that uses crowdfunding to pick which shirts should get printed. Now they're doubling down and focusing entirely on the T-shirt and merchandise businesses.Support The New Disruptors directly as a patron at Patreon starting at $1 for each podcast episode, with on-air thanks, premiums, and more at higher levels of support.
