About this video

Description

Great ideas have symmetry and simplicity. They tell a story and delight. Bad ideas hurt the brain. And, like bad design, there are a lot more bad ideas in the world than good. Andrew shares some of the most beautifully designed ideas he’s been a part of or has appreciated in his career, how they came to be, why they worked and what can be learned from them.

Since then, he and his partners have taken the agency from zero clients and revenue to a thriving creative agency with over 100 employees, and clients that include Coca-Cola, Johnson & Johnson, Virgin Mobile, Cheerios and NBC Universal. The consummate entrepreneur, Andrew launched White Pike, a whiskey distilled in 18 minutes, as well as a gourmet hot dog company, Dogmatic, just to name two of his crazy, yet successful, ideas.
