When organizations are looking to have an impact within a community, they need to realize that it’s not always going to be in the best interests of shareholders. It’s not always going to be profitable. It’s important for organizations to use the power that they have.

Erwin Hines.

On Creative Characters, we meet the people and personalities behind the brands, campaigns, and designs we love. You can listen to the podcast on Apple, Spotify, Google Podcasts, and wherever quality podcasts are available. 

Born to parents who operated a development company specializing in urban planning, Erwin Hines’ creative life began with an interest in architecture and urban planning but shifted to art, design, and brand building after several serendipitous events.

In a time where concepts like empathy and inclusivity have become trendy catchphrases, Hines decided to step away from agency life, where he had been actively involved with DE&I initiatives, to build his own brand, Future is Color. Erwin designs and produces intentionally crafted garments and hosts in-person events at Future is Color’s mixed-use studio in San Diego, California, focused on the mission of building accessible space for intentional conversation around collective liberation.
