About me

Hello, my name is Harry. I am graphic designer from London, United Kingdom, with a First-Class Honours in philosophy. I am fascinated by design and the effect it can have on an individual. You can make the slightest change, whether it be the colour, font choice or photograph, and the feeling your design brings completely changes. I love exploring these possibilities and helping people achieve the effect they desire when it comes to visual language. In terms of good design, I think storytelling is the most important factor. If you have a good story to tell, chances are your design will reflect this.
