About this listen
What does it really take to survive 25 years in creative business?
In this episode of Beyond Form, Abdallahi M. Diop sits down with Berlin-based creative director and entrepreneur Christiane Bördner to unpack the truth behind longevity in design, fashion, and brand building.
From studio collapse and financial pressure to self-doubt and creative burnout, Christiane shares what most successful creatives rarely say out loud: you are never safe, and that’s part of the journey.
We talk about:
- Surviving three major business collapses
- Moving out of a 600sqm studio after 20 years
- The fear of not being good enough
- Staying creatively alive over decades
- Building and rebuilding in Berlin’s design scene
