Design Statement
I believe it is designer’s responsibility to create graphic/product that are aesthetically pleasing and meaningful, with the aim to improve the product, as well as reflecting the client's needs and visions. I draw my inspirations from my surroundings. I firmly believe graphic design has to reflect the identity of the designer and the client who dwell within it. Finally, The future of graphic design should be oriented towards simplicity for it is our job as designers to create a more sophisticated products for all of us to consume.
