A folio of design work by James Meadowcroft
Back Home ↦

I’m a ‘multidisciplinary’ designer. My practice is driven by research. It takes a strategic approach to outcomes.

Design is iterative. Design is collaborative. Design is hard to define.

I’m a graphic designer, web developer, photographer, book designer, user experience designer, videographer, project manager, researcher and strategist.

Design is inherently multidisciplinary. Design is the mixture of specialities. Design is fun to be a part of.

This is my folio.

A résumé of sorts

Based in Narrm / Melbourne Australia. Currently I am working as a designer at Pidgeon Ward , a teaching associate at Monash University, and as a freelancer. Collaboration drives and inspires my work.
