While Yaron Schoen and I were in the early planning stages of DesignSwap, we realized that we’d need something really special to showcase the designer profiles for each swap. Our immediate thought was to get in touch with Kyle Steed, who we both met at SXSW, and see if he’d be interested in jumping on board. Fortunately he said yes and is now illustrating swapper head shots. I don’t think the project would have been the same without Kyle’s signature 52profiles.com style.
