ABOUT ME
THIS IS BRAD:
My design point-of-view:
I am a designer who believes in clean elemental solutions to any graphic challenge. There is power in negative space and when I first read Ludwig Mies van der Rohe's philosophy, "Less is more" it struck a chord that remains in everything I do. The real world of graphic design does not always allow for this to be in the final solution, but I believe it should be one of the many filters I use when working on every graphic project.
I've spent my entire career creating solutions for my clients' advertising and branding hurdles.
