Hey there! As already mentioned, my name is Felix and I’m a media graphic design student at NEXT in Copenhagen.
I am 26 years old and I was born and raised in Copenhagen – a city that is very dear to my heart. Most of the time, if I’m not out hiking, you will see me spend time with my family, friends or dogs. I’m also very much into art, mainly graffiti, and the culture that comes with it, which most often is reflected on my work.
What appeals to me most about graphic design is the practical aspect – especially the design process. The idea of playing with shapes and colors until you have a finished product you’re proud of sounds incredibly exciting to me. I’m very eager to learn how to use the various graphic design programs professionally so I can develop my ideas from concept to finished design.
I like to say I have a good technical understanding and have previously worked with troubleshooting in both Windows and Office in Microsoft’s customer service department. This taught me to work systematically and to listen carefully to others’ needs – something I believe is valuable in a creative and customer-oriented industry like this one.
For several years, I’ve been interested in the graffiti genre, and through it, I’ve learned a lot about typography. It has given me a strong understanding of how letters can be used to convey a message and how they can be adapted to different target audiences.
In the world of graffiti, it’s all about standing out and creating something unique – and that’s something I also see as a key part of the media graphic design profession.
I hope you like what you see.
