matthew meikleGraphic design influences how I perceive the world. It gives me the
opportunity to blend my creativity with practicality, and this combination
forms the foundation of my work. Architecture, patterns and typography
also guide me to produce functional products with a clean aesthetic. This
portfolio reflects my continual growth and development as a designer by
demonstrating how my passion has been cultivated into skills that allow
me to effectively communicate through design.
