Hi, my name is Pattie Boy,
and I am a graphic designer.
And yes, you did hear that right, my last name really just consists of three little letters, B-O-Y. Seems simple, doesn’t it? But you would be surprised how many people initially misspell my name, thinking it must be more complicated than that. My junk mail can be quite entertaining!
The good thing about having an unusual name, is that once someone understands that my name is just the three letters, BOY, they will generally remember it! I think the same can be said for good design. Simple, but memorable design makes a lasting impression. And that is always my aim, to create simple, yet effective graphic design that the viewer can connect with.
