Hello, I’m Joseph Jakicevich. I come from the beach, and I design from a grounded, horizon-inspired place—warm, tactile, direct, and shaped by place. That grounding is my KAUPAPA and my practice as a designer and art director working across brand, publication and cultural projects, moving between commercial work and passion projects. After a year of full-time freelancing, I’m drawn back to the commercial/studio space and eager to collaborate with like-minded people. I value storytelling through weight and rhythm, I enjoy breaking rules with intention, and I aim to challenge passersby without adding noise to daily life. I’m ready to contribute to a collaborative team that shares my beliefs and approach.
