Who are you?
Margaret Hanson – Graphic Design Victoria: http://margarethansondesign.ca/
What do you do for fun?
Print stuff, finish projects and get paid.
What is your favourite community and why?
My community of happy clients, because they do the marketing work for me.
What is your superpower?
Matching ideas with images.
How do you use it to build community?
Symbolic and design ‘superpowers’ make me a preferred supplier of design. This spreads through various means, and the appreciators-of-good-design community builds.
My three favourite things about Margaret Hanson are…
1. Creativity. If you or your community have a concept, idea or sentence that you want turned into a meaningful design, look no further than Margaret.
2. Wordmaking. It’s hard to describe, but Margaret can use nouns as verbs (and vice-versa) in ways that make your head spin, but work nonetheless; I encourage you to call her and find out for yourself.
3. She made “the boot” on The Daily Gumboot [our former blog] logo. ‘Nuff said. It’s just great.
