Self-taught British graphic designer and illustrator SIMON C PAGE studied for a degree in applied mathematics and worked a finance job for a property company before catching the “graphic design bug” from –believe it or not– putting together corporate presentations. A collegue suggested entering a poster design competition and the rest is history. Page now creates logos, designs and editorial illustrations for numerous international brands and organisations. But the most fun, we think, are Simon’s personal projects, which include nifty wallpapers for mobile devices, experimental typography, and stylish geometric patterns for fabrics and print that reveal his background in mathematics. These also show that Simon is an ace when it comes to creating color schemes.

Simon Page is a self-taught graphic design whiz with a mathematics background. He takes shapes and morphs them into cerebral abstractions. His style shifts around futuristic digital designs and 1960s minimalism, trotting the delicate line between simplicity and detail. His International Year of Astronomy 2009 poster designs caught the eyes of discerning design writers, including the New York Times and Creative Review. It may be the year for Astronomy but its equally a big year for Page, his posters got a boost in sales from all the acknowledgment he’s been getting in print and on the web.
