Briar Levit’s design journey is as rich and unexpected as a forest hike. From the bustling offices of Bitch magazine to historic trails in Kent and the best Goodwills of Portland, her practice weaves through teaching, writing, editing, archiving, and documentary making. This illustrated interview, conducted by design and curator Nina Paim, traces her winding path across a changing feminist landscape, shedding light on how design and activism intertwine, the micropolitics of work, and the value of friendship. It’s an intimate conversation about how unplanned routes often lead to the most meaningful destinations. This volume is the first published work in the marginalias, a visually illustrated journey series that brings the often overlooked, untold, behind-the-scenes aspects of everyday practice into the spotlight. Each volume delves into the intimate details that shape the work of designers and cultural practitioners, offering a fresh feminist perspective on collaboration, failure, dreams, labor, serendipity—and, above all, friendship.
