Venture Onward is the comprehensive monograph of Christian Watson’s work
Venture Onward by Christian Watson
To venture onward is to push forward bravely in an uncertain, sometimes difficult world. As a kid, Christian Watson used to repeat the phrase “venture onward” to myself as a kind of mantra; over time, it came to refer not just to bravery but to a continuous pursuit of self-improvement.
Christian Watson is the designer behind Venture Onward and 1924us.
Venture Onward contains an essay of designer Christian Watson.

Christian Watson never wants to take where he is for granted, nor does he want to be stuck thinking that where he is is good enough. It isn’t a state of permanent dissatisfaction so much as an acknowledgement that better things are always possible: better attitudes, better practices, better design. “Venture onward” is an all-encompassing call for me, and it is something anyone who encounters our work can feel.
Christian Watson collects matches and older curiosities from the past.
