About
I’m a graphic designer and art director based in New York City, concentrating on brand identity and its extensions into editorial, packaging, campaigns, signage, environmental graphics, motion, and digital design. Although dedicated to keeping my projects, tools, and experiences as wide-ranging as possible, I focus more extensively on typography-driven work that’s grounded in research and developed with craftsmanship and rigor.
Originally from Siberia, Russia, where I graduated from Novosibirsk Academy of Architecture and Fine Arts with an MFA in Graphic Design, I’ve been living in New York for 10 years.
I currently work both independently and as a collaborator on bigger teams, providing freelance support to studios and in-house design departments. I welcome opportunities in public speaking and writing, and am currently available for new projects.
