I have dogs, thinker and all round ideas-girl. a cat, two goldfish, a home, I pay taxes. i have tattoos. Unconventional – yes.i breathe colour, think in shapes and when I design, it’s love that moves my handlove for the aesthetic, for typography, for bold lines and daring design. i get a kick out of composition and get goosebumps when I see visual harmony emerge on paper or pixel. i live to design and design to live. What inspires me? Life, love, smiles, drinking coffee, modernity, clean lines borne of clever thought, art, illustrations, good food, great typography. Everything inspires, from manga, music, movies, a colour swatch to the shapes of trees, birds on a wire.My ideas stem from simplicity a life less complicated and complemented by design that echoes such. I don’t just design, I create.I think out of the box, I rethink the box. Break it down, turn it inside out and upside down so that at the end of it, it’s not a box but whatever it is you want it to be. Life’s short, live it with endless love and reckless abandon. From all of us at CemAir we wish you a very Merry Christmas and Dance when people are watching, paint your walls all shades of awesome, laugh often, have fun and just Publishing be a safe and memorable holiday season.
