From £5 logos to a global design business: becoming a self-taught designer with Courtney Wood EP016

Written by:
Courtney started designing £5 logos on her phone during lockdown, while still thinking graphic design would probably remain something she did at weekends alongside her retail job.
Six years later, she’s running Funky Enough, working with branding and website clients around the world, building a small freelance team and creating the bold, colourful work she’s now known for.
In this episode, we chat about becoming a self-taught designer, learning as you go and why not having a design degree doesn’t make you any less legitimate. We also get into the snobbery that still exists around Canva, Adobe Express and the software designers are “supposed” to use.
You can find Courtney on Instagram, TikTok and Pinterest at @funkyenoughh.

Till next time
