About me
James Baker
Hi, I’m James — a recent Industrial Design graduate. I’m passionate about creating meaningful experiences across both product and digital platforms, with a focus on design that improves how we live and work.
I enjoy turning ideas into experiences people can actually interact with. From responsive interfaces to tactile prototypes, I focus on the details that make design feel natural. I thrive on turning complex problems into simple solutions, always keeping people at the centre of the process.
Curious about my designs? Head over to my projects:

As a digital designer, I am a visual storyteller, crafting experiences that connect deeply and spark creativity.

My Software Stack
I love learning new software and enhancing my digital skills, these are my go-to's: Procreate for those initial ideas, sketches, Figma for my interface work, and Affinity for pushing work to prospective clients. Every tool has its place in the design process.
Affinity
Any raster graphics, vector work or photography editing is all done within the Afiinity creative suite.

My ACADEMIC JOURNEY
Design Process
For almost two years I’ve worked exclusively with the Basic Design Cycle developed by Roozenburg and Eekels. Unlike linear methods, this model is dynamic and reflective, making it well-suited to my projects, which rarely follow a conventional order or timeline.
The key advantage of this approach is that problem understanding and solution development evolve together through repeated cycles. Each loop builds on the last, so the longer a project develops, the stronger and more refined the solution becomes:
