Evi O is someone who has had a huge impact on my creative life over the past five years. She not only designed the proposal for my book This is Home, which helped me get a publishing contract. But she went on to design This is Home and Still. She is an award-winning book designer and runs a successful design studio in Sydney - Evi O Studio, and is an artist who creates sell-out shows. In this episode she shares why simplifying the design process is so important, and some of the big lessons she's learnt along the way.
