About Me:

Hello, my name is Matej Arsikj, I am a graphic design student from Macedonia. My background includes a diploma from Heidelberg Skopje and Fanshawe College in London, ON. I believe that graphic design is a key element in our everyday life that gets unappreciated or ignored. The first time I was intrigued by graphic design was the WordArt in Microsoft Word and the 3D text from educational shareware programs. There was something to pleasing in using a fancier text in Word, it made it more lively and stand out. Ever since then, I had an eye for designs and tiny details that most people look over. It still sticks with me and I know it’s mostly a fade from the 2000s but it still holds a special place in my heart and eyes.

Skills:

My greatest strength is digital design. I love to work on simple and recognizable logos, big bold fonts, and abstract designs. I also like to work with packaging design. Although my favourite is motion graphics, it’s one thing to make a static design but there’s something special about adding some movement to it, to make it really pop.
