About me

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am a freelance designer and recent graduate from BA (Hons) Interior Design at Edinburgh College of art. I email you today in regards to the junior interior designer opportunity. I am looking to pursue a creative career with a passion for design.

During my studies in the subject of interior design, at both college and university level, I developed a keen and detailed eye for the all aspects of the design of the experience of an interior space. I nurtured my skills in the complete design process from concept design through to completion and build which included working on my graduate project, a conceptual virtual reality exhibition that explored the Scottish referendum, the 2014 interior design degree show and ECA's Graduate Fashion Week stand at the Truman Brewery in London earlier this year. In recent weeks I have worked freelance for 4D projects in London, helping produce and ship out De Beers Christmas seasonal window displays. My most recent freelance work includes 3D visualisation for Beresford Residential in Brixton and 3D modelling for National Museums of Scotland.

I have 4+ years experience in using AutoCAD and similar levels of expertise in Google Sketchup. I have proficient experience in Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop/Indesign/Illustrator). I am a problem solver, creative thinker with excellent time management skills and the ability and experience in working to deadlines. I am a conceptual designer, that has never overlooked the skills in sketching and hand drawing as I feel they are one of my most important skills for anyone in the creative industry and consider them my most effective assets.

Attached is my up to date CV that demonstrates projects I have managed and produced along with my experience and skills and hope to be considered for the position.

Yours Faithfully,

Simon Palmer
