Biography

Vincent has been working in the design industry for over 15 years, as a practitioner and educationalist. He moved to Beijing in 2004 where he is heading a private design school. For the last 8 years he has been involved in numerous design events, acted as judges for large national and international design competitions and was frequently invited to talk on design and sustainability. Passionate about design, Vincent contributes to various design magazines and blogs and has had work published in Europe and China.

He truly believes in design as a medium for change, whatever the change maybe. He also believes that design and business are not mutually exclusive, but it requires business to understand the true value of design. He likes to propose that everyone should understand and apply “design” to their everyday life, especially heads of businesses.

As a designer he craves for well crafted graphic design work, thoroughly enjoys typography and fervently consumes illustrations. As a business minded person, he loves to analyze and strategize the proper use of design for branding and communication purpose.
