Most successful designers handle the pressures of business management in one of three ways.
1. They succumb to it as a necessary evil, becoming front men for themselves, or for what once was themselves.
2. Or they develop the rare skill of designing through other people's minds and hands and talents.
3. Or they resist growth, and work pretty much by themselves, with perhaps an assistant or two to do mechanicals, thereby limiting the scale and logistical complexity of the assignments they can undertake.
Forbes took, or rather cared, another route. He became the chief designer of an alternative choice called Pentagram, to which he is inextricably bound both by accident and design.
