MADE_BY_MATTY_PROFILE.jpg

Matty is a design lead/director & illustrator based in London.

As a child, before Matty even knew what graphic design was, he was already mesmerized by anything he could sculpt, build, draw, or paint with. It wasn't just about art—it was an obsession to create, to sit in front of a blank canvas and bring something from the aether into his world (and eventually ours).

Fast forward a bit, and now he's an award-winning graphic designer and illustrator based in London (though if you listen closely, you might catch a trace of his Aussie accent).

Born and raised in sunny Sydney, Matty graduated in 2007 with big dreams of conquering the global creative scene. Six years and a few passport stamps later, he landed in London. In 2015, Matty co-founded Thunderclap in Hackney—a branding agency known for its love of bold imagery and creative strategy. Over five years, Matty wore many hats: Creative Director, Web Design Lead, Brand Strategist, Illustrator—you name it.

These days, Matty's a solo act. As a multidisciplinary designer and illustrator, his work is a mix of vibrant colour, pencil dust, quirky details, and an insatiable curiosity for new creative ventures. Whether it's branding, typography, packaging, or even clothes-making (yes, really), Matty is always diving headfirst into the next creative challenge.
