At WIRED’s The Big Interview event, the Figma cofounder said he’s “fascinated” by whether it’s possible to build a new company on the back of the tainted brand.
Sporting an oversized Enron hoodie during his conversation with WIRED editor at large Steven Levy during The Big Interview event in San Francisco on Tuesday, Field said he has always been a fan of the Enron logo, which was the last one crafted by legendary American graphic design er Paul Rand of ABC, IBM, UPS, and Westinghouse logo fame. But he said he also “got a real kick” out of the potential Enron relaunch, which has been tied to “Birds Aren’t Real” creator Connor Gaydos.
Either way, it seems, it’s a question of the power of design, something Field and Levy focused on more broadly as their chat went on, talking not just about the creation and evolution of the Figma platform but also about where the cofounder sees the company going in the immediate future. At the moment, Field says, the company has “millions” of users, with a third coming from the design world, a third coming from the programming space, and a third coming from various other backgrounds.
