about

I am Matthieu Dubois,

Graphic designer & illustrator since 1996, multidisciplinary, I work mostly in digital & visual communication.

I enjoy working with and for craftsmen and entrepreneurs who wish to communicate through all the media they may need to use to launch their activity, accompanying them in their steps, creating a true unique and personal graphic branding on digital and paper.

I try to forward my experience in user interface design knowledge as good as possible to companies and start-ups that are worth it.

This may be my geek side, but I have always tried to understand how things were built, and that's why I've always favored a DESIGN + CODE approach in my design process, this allows a more fluid and efficient collaboration with the developers.

I am also an illustrator motion designer on animation film projects on a cultural or institutional aspect, both as an author and as a service provider to authors.

I love to do joinery - photography - cooking - DIY - gardening - meditation - bioclimatic building design - I am a loving husband and father of 2 kids.

Available for any questions or advice related to web design, mobile application, branding image, as well as the use of digital creation tools and 3D or frame-by-frame film animation.

My creative time activity during the past year (2018)

According to my RescueTime account, during the year 2018, I have spend 43% of my logged time to my computer to make Design and Composition, and this is my top 5 tools I have used in this category: Sketch 33%, Photoshop 26%, Illustrator 20%, After-effects 10%, invision / flinto / Zeplin 6%, Indesign 5%.
