From the barrier islands of Savannah Georgia, Patrick Dimond seeks inspiration from the natural world and energies around him. He developed his practice through bookmaking, branding, and publication design at Appalachian State University where he graduated magna cum laude with a BFA in Graphic Design.
With a keen eye for detail, Dimond creates for fulfillment, not just expectation. He enjoys building trust in team environments and understanding how the creative processes of his peers contribute to successful design. He aims to provoke emotion within his audience, creating a safe space that encourages individualism and tests the bonds between intimacy and art.
With experience serving as the Art Director of The Collective Magazine, Dimond led editorial design projects that involved input from creatives across the disciplines of fashion, photography, and journalism. He has grown accustomed to designing communication systems that do not distract from the variety of content included in the works, further executed through his role as head publication designer for Liminal Figures, his undergraduate cohort’s capstone exhibition catalogue.
The atmosphere created when people of the same passion come together draws his attention towards working for cultural institutions, particularly environments where he will design for causes larger than himself.
