Show Notes
Everyone's hyper-focused on art direction right now, but they're missing the point. It's not about copying cool aesthetics, it's about using art direction to build a world people can feel. Alex breaks down the four reasons why art direction matters in 2026 and why every design decision needs to be meaningful. He uses examples from Tyr's Maverick campaign, Bandit Running, House of Errors, and more. As always, appreciate you all listening.
