On Courage, Embracing Change and Lifelong Learning with Astrid Stavro (E27)

Astrid Stavro nos atiende desde Londres, ciudad a la que se trasladó para ser socia de Pentagram. Actualmente tiene otra vez su despacho de diseño propio y ha dejado la agencia. Al preguntarle a Stavro cómo se define nos dice que a veces es diseñadora gráfica, directora creativa, otras periodista, editora…¡e incluso veterinaria! Para ella el diseño gráfico es una manera de entender el mundo.
