Is There a Future for Craftsmen and Artisans?
It’s a common complaint among designers that it is nearly impossible to find skilled
artisans and craftspeople. Why is there such a shortage, and what can designers do to
inspire more young people to work with their hands? Three outstanding
practitioners—decorative painter Caroline Lizarraga, floor painter Chris Pearson, and
upholsterer Luther Quintana—weigh in on how they learned their craft, and how they find
and train staff to keep up with demand. They discuss the ways social media has
transformed the artisan community and reveal why you just might find your next talented
team member at the local carwash.
