Aaron Hillsdon Graphic Design
Perth, AustraliaI am an enthusiastic, skilled and highly motivated individual with a passion for graphic design and a strong desire to share that passion with others. Technical illustration, diagrams and information graphics are my specialty, however I am extremely versatile and more than willing to turn my hand to any task and utilise an extensive skill set.
My approach to my work is organised, professional and adaptable, and I am able to apply those qualities to producing memorable, appropriate and distinctive design solutions.
I firmly believe that effective design is more than just aesthetics. Having been surrounded by design since childhood, I am able to assimilate that background into an innate appreciation of good design in all its forms, particularly graphic design, but also industrial, architectural and furniture design.
My work as a freelance graphic designer provides constant challenges, enables me to keep my skills fresh and current, and regularly presents me with opportunities to continuously produce creative results.
