Today I have interviewed an amazing graphic designer called Rob Palmer. Rob has his own very uniquely designed website (branded07), compared to many other web design portfolio’s and blog’s out there today.

Did you study anything when you were younger?

I took Art, Design Technology and Computing at GCSE along with my other subjects!

New trends and design ideas. The fact that I am in one of the fastest moving and growing industries and also making my own mark in my industry.
