About me

During the first years of my career I took every opportunity to gain experience in the design industry. First as a graphic designer, then as a lighting designer. During my course at Central Saint Martins, I decided to specialized in advertising in order to gain the skills needed to work in this industry ( understand a brief, think out of the box, visualise concepts to demonstrate ideas..).

After a few years in London I took the opportunity to open my design studio in Paris.

For 3 years I specialized in brand identity and digital design.

This role needed polymorphic skills: supervising other designer, working closely with developers and clients. I had to do art direction, photograpahy, packaging typography ...within the design specifications and the media used.

I decided to use my free time with the TMP/Lab (Parisian hacker space) working for personal or/and group projects, sharing ideas and learning from others. I took part in a few workshop at La Gaité Lyrique in Paris, working and building 3D printers, animated origami, tactile experiences ( currently working with Vincent Hayward on haptic system)

Good listener...Solid work ethic...Desire to excel...Meet deadlines...Enjoy a fast-paced environment...

I'd love to find out more about the position you're looking to fill, and I would welcome the opportunity to tell you more about my skills and ideas.

Thanks for your consideration; I look forward to hearing from you soon!

Sincerely,

Julian Salaun
