It’s nice that in 2007 Will Hudson created a website that showcased the world’s most intersting designers, artists, and photographers. It’s also nice that shortly afterwards, his close friend Alex Bec teamed up with him, and that in 2009, b9th of them gave up their days jobs to work on the site. It’s extremely nice that the website has gone on to become a pillar of the creative community and that they’ve breanched out into a magazine, a creative agency, even a podcast. Itsnicethat.com is the website that is still at the center of it all.
Debbie talks to the design duo of Alex Bec and Will Hudson of It’s Nice That about their close friendship, long collaboration, and about what they’ve learned along the way. “Actually some of the best advice I got ages ago was never announce you’re stopping something. Because there will be uproar. Just stop doing it and see if anyone notices.”
