Design and nathan duncan
A decade ago design became my gateway to expressing creativity at large. I began by creating covers for albums i was listening to, finding the process of crystalising a piece of work into a single visual incredibly rewarding. The interplay of artistic instinct and knowledge-based skill sets needed for great design slotted into my interests perfectly. As i grew as a designer, i became more curious as a creative, expanding into different mediums and personal projects. As such, my life has been shaped by my pursuit of design, and it remains at the core of who i am.
I never quite gave up making album covers. To the left you can see a sampling of the 100+ covers i’ve designed over the years. They help plot my journey, and how my stylistic focus has oscillated over time.
Today i use design as a problem solving tool, a way to marry purpose‑driven concepts with aesthetics for something that works well and looks good while doing it. I value curiosity, open‑mindedness, collaboration, and vision in creative projects, so that solutions remain considered, relevant and equitable.
