Xavier Bertels

Who?

Describing myself is probably one of the hardest things you can ask me to do. Sometimes I wish I was a little less eclectic, but quite frankly, I'm not.

I am a twenty-two year old graphic designer with a passion for art direction on the web. I spend most of my time working on projects for Atticus. I have one dark, secret love, which is typography. To me, good typography is essential for any project—save the projects in which I can let images do the talking.

As a web and communications enthusiast, I try to keep up with the latest trends in social media. My mother tongue is Dutch, but I have a profound interest in foreign languages such as English, French and Italian. I try to maintain my Dutch and English by writing a lot. I write about my passions and interests on my blogs, but I also write copy for our clients and in-house projects at Atticus.

Where?

I live in Hasselt, Belgium. A vivid city on the crossroads of the BeNeLux, which is steadily becoming a landmark for the creative industry.

  • LiveGraphics design is my blog and portfolio.
  • My LinkediIn profile is my digital resumé.
  • I do some totally random microblogging on twitter and soup.
  • U&Me is my best excuse to go crazy with music.
  • I have only recently rediscovered my love for photography. You can follow my quite amateurish progress on my flickr account.
