DENISE TAYLOR
The old car thing? Classic beauty, solid design, built for the long haul with comfort and style. My design foundation is old school – fine tuned hand skills of traditional cut and paste and formal education set a solid foundation for my skills. Formal education – Bachelors Degree of Fine Arts in Graphic Design from Kent State University and have been working professionally as a designer ever since.
The identity of a brand is crucial in this digital era. Social media and web platforms have been simplified in such a manner that they no longer have many design elements that used to aid in the recognition of a brand. It's now up to the brand's logo, color palette, tone and spokesperson to make it stand out from the rest.
I spent nearly 10 years at Matrix Essentials in Solon, Ohio and then in New York after LOreal acquired the company. For seven years, I ran my own office on Furnace St. in Akron and worked independently as business owner and sole designer. I maintained a client base with annual contracts and some without. After that I spent 8 years as Senior Art Director at Aquage, yet another company that required impeccable detail and a modern flare that only a seasoned pro would have.
When I’m not at work, taking my four legged fur babies for a walk, or hanging out with friends you can catch me out on a country road riding my Harley. Please feel free to drop me a line. Click here to go to the contact section.
