Hampshire Designer Directory

Looking for a designer? The Hampshire Designer Directory is an easy way for members of the community to find and hire students to design posters, flyers, brochures, websites, and more. Designers maintain their own portfolios on this page. Browse, and contact the student to inquire about feasibility, price, and timeframe.

Are you a student designer? If you are a designer on campus looking for work, add yourself to this page! Log in at the top right of this page, click the "edit" tab above, and add your name to the list according to alphabetical order by last name. Include a short bio, samples of work, and your contact info. Copy and paste an existing designer's section for easy formatting. Upload your portfolio images by clicking "upload" in the left side column, then paste the image file name in your gallery after "File:" To ease browsing for the client, please limit yourself to posting five portfolio pieces.

Are you an alum designer? Add yourself to the Designer Alum list at the bottom of the page. As this page is meant for current students to find learning and working opportunities, please limit yourself to including a link to your work rather than portfolio gallery.

I'm a second year Div 2 concentrating in 'contemporary graphic design.' That is to say, I'm particularly interested in thinking about where graphic design will be going in the future as media changes. I really enjoy making posters, and have experience working with campus offices and groups. I love InDesign, and I'm working towards having the same skill level with Illustrator.

You can find more examples of my work here!

I am a third year student studying architecture and public interest design. For me, design exists in everything - it's a strategy I explore whenever I present an architectural project, organize and promote an event, draw something by hand, or even format an academic paper. I have worked with many groups on and off campus on poster designs, logos, business cards, book layouts, maps, etc. I love collaborating on projects and expanding my skill set with work by hand as well as Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign.

This semester (S13) I am on field study in Santiago, Chile, but would love to stay connected to campus through remote collaboration!

I'm a third semester Div II student studying digital media. I do music production, video editing, writing, graphic design... if your digital project involves a creative component, I will contribute. My skillset includes Photoshop, Illustrator, AfterEffects, Final Cut Pro 7 and X, and Adobe Premiere. I've done a lot of different kinds of projects, like designing a brand package for a hypothetical corporate event, editing videos as an intern for a wedding film company in Amherst, 2D animation, doing graphic design for National Priorities Project in Amherst, digital gallery art, etc. I'm open to collaborations and creative projects.

I'm a third semester Div II transfer student studying publishing and the picture book. This combines critical analysis, developmental psychology, art, and writing with the practice of design and production. I have extensive experience with publication layout and hand-drawn or computer-generated cartography, and I'm working on getting more experience making posters and book covers. I am very comfortable with InDesign and Photoshop, and am proficient with Illustrator, ArcGIS, and HTML/CSS.

A transfer student from Parsons The New School for Design in NYC, I have extensive experience contributing to strategic communication and organizational development in the social sector. My design interest is grounded in critical thinking about the sociology of organizations - in particular, the ways in which individuals interact with and experience bureaucracy.

My Division III is tentatively titled Building the Open Source Brand: The changes face(s) of corporate identity.
