YOU’RE RIGHT, I’M LUCKY.

I’m lucky because I have the nicest job in the world.

I am a graphic designer. For 23 years, I’ve designed. Brochures, leaflets and annual reports. Logos. Packaging. Illustrations. On all kinds of medium or on screen. Sometimes in all sorts of suprising languages.
I’m lucky because it’s not work: it’s a pleasure. A difficult but priviledged pleasure of creating, of course, but above all the satisfaction to note that the message is well passed on and that the client appreciates the quality and beauty of ones work. For the messenger that I am, it’s very gratifying.
You know that, pleasure is a serious affair. It requires work and experience. But a messenger requires above all a message to transmit or a reason to share.
That message, that reason, could very well be your message, your company or your reason. Your ideas deserve that one takes care of them.
I invite you to cross-skills. I offer you all the achievements of my career and you bring to me your universe. Let’s bring together our talents!

Previous sectors of activity:

I have worked in the following sectors: institutional, pharmaceutical, financial, chemical, military, energy, commercial, transport, industrial and environmental
From conception through to the production of multilingual brochures, leaflets, pop-ups, annual reports, banners, roll-ups and display panels… , I have handled all printable mediums.
No aspect of the industry is unknown, from the design of complete visual identities, to the writing and use of brand guidelines and advanced image retouching. Not forgetting 3D design (popups, packaging, 3D printing), conception of exhibition stands, illustrations, infographics and the front-end design of websites.

 

My vision of the profession

At a time where different communication channels addresses to all of our senses, where they interact at an unprecedented scale and where frontiers between offline and online worlds become blurred, a coherent, comprehensive approach which crosses communication relays is more than ever essential to meet each challenge and conceive pertinent and robust solutions which reply to each need.
More than ever, the designer is at the crossover of media.
