More quotes by Paula Scher
I love the big scale and immediate impact of posters. They're my favourite things to design.
Paula Scher
Technology is something that grows and changes, and what I need to do is find out what it can do so it can do what I want it to do. And I want it to do whatever I want it to do really fast. And it's fantastic.
Paula Scher
Planning is design. As a designer what I tend to do, and what's different from being a painter, is that I interact with other people, and the people have things they need to have happen.
Paula Scher
We don't do everything the same way we always did it. We just don't.
Paula Scher
All the little risks I took were sort of like all the apartments I had moved into: I was finding the right spot.
Paula Scher
What a designer does is he makes things possible that you didn't imagine could exist before, and it makes the world a better place. You know, it's a great thing to be doing. A fine artist does that, too, but they make the expression for themselves, not for others' use.
Paula Scher
If I get up every day with the optimism that I have the capacity for growth, then that’s success for me.
Paula Scher
I know that in my own work I'm able to do all kinds of things I never thought I'd be able to do.
Paula Scher
As a painter I make up projects for myself to express myself. And there's no client, there's no direction.
Paula Scher
Identities are the beginning of everything. They are how something is recognized and understood. What could be better than that?
Paula Scher
I'm not from a generation of kids that grew up on a Mac.
Paula Scher
I don't want being a woman to be a factor, or being short to bea factor, or being Jewish to be a factor, or anything that makes you outside some design normthat I don't understand anyway. That makes me nervous.
Paula Scher
New Zealand looks like the future to me
Paula Scher
I never thought I'd be able to design all the things I've been able to design. I thought that I'd be far more limited to a specific kind of work, and I've been able to establish an incredibly broad practice in all different ways, and it's because the expectations have gotten elevated.
Paula Scher
Creativity has to do with what came before you immediately, not what came before you a long time ago.
Paula Scher
I do different things. I'm a designer. I'm a painter.
Paula Scher
Stefan Sagmeister says that nobody innovates past forty-five, but I think he's wrong. I want to keep doing it.
Paula Scher
It could be that going to work is better than being home. But you should never think of days as the weekend. It should all be the same, it should all be stuff you want to do. And when it isn't then you have to change it, and you have to think about how you change it.
Paula Scher
I think that the notion of being creative is the notion that, inwardly, you assume that many things are possible. And that you can try these things and that something will happen.
Paula Scher
Design really can be anything.
