I first starting designing when I was 14.

 

I launched a local newspaper called the PutneyPages delivering it to neighbours and newsagents. An ambitious first gig admittedly but I loved the challenge of creating something enticing out of nothing and then sharing it with the world. After that came T-shirts, party invitations, tickets to events, posters for school shows, a website called George's World (the facebook before facebook)... you name it, I made it!

​

Despite my original love for design, my first job was as a copywriter for GQ Magazine (after a brief stint hanging up clothes in the fashion cupboard). Later I moved into digital advertising for CBS, producing hundreds of campaigns for big brands across the Tube's (then shiny new) network of digital screens.

​

As a digital producer, I lent over the shoulders of many graphic designers yet secretly yearned to be the one sat in the chair – wielding the mouse. It wasn't long before I answered that childhood calling and retrained as a freelance graphic designer at London's Shillington College.

Curious & Curiouser...

​

I love the way there are essential principals to graphic design but there's also an alchemy and a magic to it.

 

For clients, graphic design must solve business problems; how to appear, to stand out, to engage, to hit the right note with their audience. Everything in the public eye needs designing.

​

When I'm not hunched over Photoshop (reminding myself to sit up straight!) I'm telling other people to sit up straight as a Classical Pilates teacher. And if you're interested to know more about that you can check out my teaching page here @pilatesbygeorge

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you enjoy my work as much as I enjoy creating it.​
