Hello dear INFORMATION DESIGN students!

I would like to also take a moment to welcome you and introduce myself. I am a communication designer with a focus on information design and illustration. I am principal designer of >>ARTORIUM, a graphic design studio committed to communicating the essentials of complex information quickly, clearly, and appealingly. My recent work has primarily been as a contract artist for scientists at several research organizations.

I can’t wait to meet you all this semester and I look forward to learning about you here on this first blog post.

Sincerely,

Prof. Hitchings
