The On2design website is the collective works of Digital designer and proud father Nathan Goulbourne.

"I have been 'playing' with pixels commercially now for 15 years; over the last decade producing work for brands such as Google, Wellcome Trust, Nestlé, European Space Agency, Unilever, P&G, Pfizer, Accenture, and Blackberry.

In general, my approach - if possible - is to keep things simple, design can never be too simple, focus on the message that needs to be conveyed.

Unless explicitly requested, using context to drive the visual language to be used, as opposed to context augmented into a defined style.

Outside of design, my current passion is dance and music. I find involving myself in a different, more immediate form of creativity allows me to meet like-minded people from all over the world, both here in the UK and abroad, in some cases, I feel it has given me a broader general insight to which I have tapped into professionally."

If you want to collaborate on a project or would like to know a little more about me – please feel welcome to contact me.

I am available for freelance projects, contract work and full-time employment.

TESTIMONIALS
 

Nathan is one of those rare things: an all round designer who not only can do everything but is good at them all.

Nathan is an extremely talented. digital designer, but his skills encompass print layout and production, photographic editing, interface design, interactive experience design and data visualisation - all of them with a depth of knowledge to equal his ability. What’s more, the clients agree - more often than not its Nathan’s designs that win pitches or that the clients choose over other options.

He is always inventive and insightful but also professional and thoughtful. He’s also good and generous about sharing that knowledge and insight, not just in concept development but as a team member helping hone project work and sharing his deep technical experience in problem solving.

And he’s a splendid fellow to work with, too.
