When design meets creative thinking, striking imagery has the power to express complex messages in a compelling and memorable way. Award-winning graphic designer and artist Julian Montague strives to create the strongest and most compelling visual solutions to complicated topics. His work has appeared in numerous galleries, books, on posters, and more. Julian’s clients include Sonos and Continental Tires, and he has published a book on his satirical and abstract take on the science behind the stray shopping carts of Eastern North America.
