I’m Chenxi Nie, a Graphic Designer, Typeface Designer and Illustrator.
As a graphic designer with an international education background, I focus on the design under internationalization, and I understand globalization. Most of my works focus on the spread of Chinese culture. This is because my understanding of my own identity has become clearer and clearer in the cross-cultural context of my study. I hope that more and more people can understand Chinese culture through my work. And because I realise the importance of collaborative development in the context of globalisation, I focus on the design of Chinese typeface and hope to make a contribution in this field. For example, in my project “Square pixel pattern”, I try to exploring the design potential of pixelated Chinese characters and typography in the knitting field.
As a typeface design, I specialize in the innovative design of Chinese characters. My typeface design work “Xian Li” won the finalist award in the 13th Hiiibrand International Brand & Communication Design Awards. In this project, I became skilled in Glyphs, especially in the making of variable font.
As an illustrator, I try to use different styles in different works. My work is about emotions and relationships. People’s mentality and behaviours are complex. I think about and analyse the reasons why different acts in different relationships. I think about these because they give me more inspiration. It also puts me in a more peaceful state, as a calm person. For example, my Illustrator work “Is it love? It is love. Is it love?”, I show some memories of scenes where I was misunderstood. But in the process of painting, I try to replace thinking, so that what this work wants to express in the end is not anger, but love.
I hold a Bachelor of Graphic Design from University of the Arts London. I can use PhotoShop, Adobe Illustrator, InDesign, Procreate, and Glyphs skillfully. I also know about photography and video editing. I can do poster design, book design, typography design, logo design and illustration.
Above all, I pride myself on being patient and reliable, qualities that translate into a seamless collaboration process. Trust in my ability to deliver results that exceed your expectations, and together, we can bring your creative visions to life.
