i create digital experiences that transform the way people connect and interact with the digital environment.

Hello! My name is Joel Thomson, I am a passionate UI / UX designer and Graphic Designer. Having experience in human centred design, along with strong problem solving skills, this helps me create seamless and emotional design solutions. I strive to add personality to each project, through research strategy and development. Elevating a concept through personality and human centred design practices adds emotional sustainability, an attribute that should not be underestimated. I have received accolades for my UX / UI work, most notably featuring on the Shaping Design website in an article titled: 15 landing page examples with effective design, where my site “Elysium” took out the no. 1 spot. I have gained valuable experience working for a number of digital agencies, most notably BMW Group in Munich where I completed a yearlong internship in their Innovation Lab. In 2016 I completed a semester of study at Akershus University, (HiOA) in Oslo, Norway, studying Product Design / Interactive and Visual Design. I believe a good designer is shaped by their experiences and ability to take each project on its own merit. These experiences have helped form the designer I am today.
