This week’s guest is the one and only Sagi Haviv. Haviv is a partner and designer at Chermayeff & Geismar & Haviv—a firm responsible for some of the most famous logos of all time. The firm’s clients include Chase Bank, NBC, State Farm, OBS, NYU, Animal Planet, and the US Open to name a few. Haviv also teaches Visual Identity Design at the School of Visual Arts in New York and has penned a couple of books on the topic of identity design. It’s his dedication to crafting beautiful symbols and his deep knowledge of brands that have made Haviv a compelling DesignThinkers speaker. In this episode, host Nicola Hamilton talks to him about his early career working under legends Ivan Chermayeff and Tom Geismar, what it means to design a logo today, and why presentations are so valuable for our clients.
