Available to hire
Hello! I’m Noah Smith, a multidisciplinary designer blending graphic design, product design, and art direction. I thrive at the intersection of branding, apparel, and fabrication, turning ideas into polished visuals and tangible objects. I enjoy collaborating with teams to craft cohesive brand stories and practical designs that work in the real world.
Away from the screen, I roll up my sleeves—fabrication, woodworking, and sculpture inform my approach to design, helping me translate concepts into compelling, functional work across print, digital, and products.
