About me

I’m Jacob, a multidisciplinary designer always thinking and tinkering. I take pride in the conceptual side of design, as this allows me to start at the impossible and trickle it down until it becomes possible with some added magic. Most importantly though I believe that everything should be inspired by the people around us and how they interact with a design. My skills in design range across a variety of platforms from a strong digital background to print and typography. I have strong social skills and am highly engaged when working as part of a team. I have dynamic and adaptable thinking that allows for fast and high-quality design output. Whilst my organisational skills result in me being dependable, reliable and decisive in the final stages of projects.

This limited edition print was made to encompass the year, allowing some student’s work to appear in the show who hadn’t managed to submit something in time. The timeframe on this project was extremely short; with an 8-hour window from concept to the final risograph print.
