Ben Terrett on changing a culture through digital design
The Best of the World's Creativity/Recorded 2013
A close reading, kept within reach.
Ben Terrett takes information design as a lens on the larger question the festival keeps returning to: what design owes to the people and places it works among. The talk moves from specific projects toward a broader argument about practice.
Recorded in United Kingdom in 2013, the conversation is grounded in Ben's own working method — the compromises, the constraints, and the moments where the work taught them something they didn't expect.
The closing turn is characteristic of the archive: less a conclusion than a provocation, handed to the audience to carry into their own disciplines.
Digital designer Ben Terrett explains his inspiration and design process in creating Gov.uk, an all-inclusive website for government services and information.
