As you know, we have recently completed a restoration on my Volkswagen Type 25 Transporter which I am really pleased with. Part of the process was thinking how we wanted the end product to look. We decided that we liked the van ‘riding high’ and so decided not to have it lowered at all. We also decided we liked some of the original features of the van, like the non-colour coded bumpers and the stock rims so decided to keep this all original.

However, one thing I knew I wanted way before we even conceived of having enough money to have the camper van re-sprayed was white wall tyres. I really like them and whilst I am sure it is not everyones cup of tea seeing these on a T25 (clash of era’s and all that) but I really wanted them.

As I have mentioned before, both my partner and I are graphic designers and as such it’s very difficult to know when to stop designing. I know whenever we have a free minute to ourselves after a long day at work we immediately move on to our personal design projects. Or if there are no personal projects on the go we read design magazines (or VW Camper magazines) and books or explore the internet for graphic design blogs or portfolios gaining valuable inspiration for the next project. Essentially, we eat, sleep and breath design. But when is it the right time to say, ‘No, I am going to stop designing and do something else’?

We recently posed the question on our graphic design blog ’When should a graphic designer stop designing?’. We had some great comments from fellow graphic designer as follows:
