I first ran across Derek Robinson in Black Designers United, a private Facebook group for Black and minority designers. Derek’s located here in Atlanta, and I got the chance to talk with about how he got started in the industry and about his company, Heavybrea Multimedia. Derek also gives some great advice for aspiring front-end engineers out there. Take it away, Derek!
Washington, DC has some talented designers, and we’ve been fortunate enough to interview a few of them. Leon Scott.ย Buck! And now Erin Miller. This recent Washington University graduate talked with us about her work and have some great advice for designers looking to stay motivated in this industry.
Kierston Ghaznavi’s illustrations consistently held my attention and inspired me. She has a distinct, quirky style that highlights women in a wayย that is beautiful, empowering and shows our strength, abilities, and image.
I’m so pleased to bring this interview to you from London-based graphic designer Brian Hollingsworth. Brian is our first interview from Europe, and while it took quite a while to nail down this busy Brit, I’m glad were able to talk about his work, the design scene in London, and about what makes English design so unique. Cheers!
It’s Black History Month! We’re starting off the month with an interview by Charles Warner, a web designer living in New York City. (If Charles’ name sounds familiar, it’s because he’s business partners with another designer we’ve interviewed — Alrick Collins, Jr.!) It’s always good seeing other designers work together and collaborate. We talked about his inspirations, as well as about how being a devout Christian influences how he approaches his work. Enjoy!
