Gyeongji Nam
I’m a graphic designer with a love for crafting visuals that tell stories and spark connection. My journey started in book publishing, where I learned the art of combining typography and layout to guide readers through an experience.
Since then, I’ve expanded into branding, packaging, and digital design, always keeping one goal in mind: to create designs that look good and say something.I thrive on details—choosing the perfect font, nailing a color palette, or tweaking a layout until it just clicks. But what really drives me is the chance to turn ideas into something tangible, something meaningful.
When I’m not designing, you’ll probably find me exploring bookstores, chasing new inspiration.
