How I started

An insight into Kiseki Studio

Kiseki Studio is not a design team or a collective, it is a singular person, myself. I only source people, when needed, with a high skill set as and when required for each individual project, this helps to accurately manage the work and ultimately keep costs down. You can take a look at all my recent design work in my portfolio.

I take a great deal of inspiration from Japan, whether it be their culture, cars or design styles and their artists. I can safely say Japan plays a big role in my inspiration and their philosophies relate to my outlook in life. As you will notice throughout the site I use Japanese words like Kiseki (miracle) and Hayai (fast), these aren’t deliberately there to make you sound silly when you try to pronounce them but instead they create a more unique part of my branding.

Web Design

Enjoying my work helps me come up with unique and memorable pieces of design work. From as far back as I can remember I have always had a keen interest in design and artwork, I always loved media studies at school and collecting magazines articles and random promotional materials such as postcards always captured my attention and got me wondering what the process was to create them.

Taking my inspiration from books such as Lodown Graphic Engineering Part I and II and tattoo artists, I create contemporary and clean designs which deliver the message clearly yet capture the customers attention without being too intrusive.

Skateboarding also plays quite a big role in my graphical inspiration as well as my outlook on life too.

Skateboarding offers so many different types of people who enjoy it, this creates a really diverse design style for each skateboard brand or company.

Photography

Photography is my ultimate passion and hobby, being able to get out and photograph is a breath of fresh air for me. Taking photographs as part of my job is also another great bonus in my eyes, as it means I get to apply my skills which I developed from a hobby and share them with my clients. Having recently started taking on wedding photography, I have realised how important it is to have a plan, a backup plan, reliable equipment and back up equipment.

My photographic inspiration comes from the older pioneers such as Daido Moriyama and William Klein, their grainy and sometimes blurry photographs appeal to me, images that both of these artists took during their travels.

I also dabble in film photography, so I can gain a better appreciation and understanding for digital photography.

Given the chance I will always try and photograph rare and unique cars when I have free time, this is my favourite subject and I hope that you will browse my photo galleries and see my work.
