It's life Jim ... part II

A designer is know to be creative (developers read: 'lazy') and eccentric. A designer is by default a dreamer and a wise crack.
A developer is said to be intelligent (designers read: 'unnecessary complicated, always trying to blame someone else) and boring. He is by default a nerd and ... a wisecrack.

Is it a cliché, invented to make the understanding of these species less complicated?
In my attempt to better understand my collegues, I want to build a profile of both designers and developers.

Today, I focussed on the designers. Some interesting videomaterial entered my mailbox:



One of our designers visited Fantasialand in Germany last weekend. He's the one with the red shoes (I swear I didn't invent this!)
Put on the sound, 'cause the comments must be a designer's as well (its' "Gents", vré wijs, the city which just breathes design).

So far the cliché on the designers still stands at Stylelabs.

To be continued ...
