The Orbiter

I just got done reading through the AIGA “Why” booklet and I feel totally refreshed and inspired. Not a day goes by that I don’t think to myself, “This is a stressful job, but I’m so glad I’m a designer.”  It’s not that hard to articulate in simple terms…

Yes, I get to be creative. (A constant reminder from people on the outside.)
Yes, my mind is constantly stimulated and challenged.
Yes, if I REALLY wanted to, I could wear shiny pink pants, a big fuzzy white coat and straw hat to work and not get sent home for it.  *pause* Hopefully I haven’t offended anyone in the office.  LOL.

…but, the real reason I love being a designer is the fact that every day I progress.

Here at Orbit, our team generates value by constantly evaluating our successes and failures.   We progress by constantly learning, striving, improving, and making better decisions than our last.  We play a big role in connecting the history of design with the functional uses and needs of today. We practice usable/purposeful design as collaborators.  We tackle tough problems and activate pin-pointed solutions by connecting wide-spectrum viewpoints and approaches.   These things as a whole inspire us to honor a commitment to success.

That is why I design.
