About me

I'm Nick Cook, a Brooklyn-based technical designer, graphic designer, and fine artist. I help brands go from sketch to factory — designing products, engineering the tech packs and patterns behind them, and finding the right manufacturing partners to produce them.
My core practice is technical product design: tech packs, construction specs, pattern development (Clo3D, Gerber AccuMark), and fit — mainly across clothing, plus toys and accessories. But I started as a graphic designer and fine artist, so I bring a visual sensibility most technical designers don't: eight years in Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign, from vector artwork engineered for manufacturing to character-driven graphic systems.
What sets me apart is the manufacturing side. I don't just design products — I source them. I work from a vetted network of 100+ factories and suppliers across 20+ countries, and I know how to match a design to the right maker, navigate MOQs, and manage sampling through bulk production. If you've ever watched a beautiful design die in production, that's the gap I close.
I'm open to freelance and contract work across technical design and product development, graphic and character design for physical products, manufacturing sourcing and consulting, and select fine art commissions.
