Shillo Stories: Chloe George
Date
Aug 22, 2024
I somehow found myself working in sustainability comms for ten years. But over time I kept coming back to design. As a kid I was design-obsessed and I guess that never really went away. But earlier this year I took the leap, quit my job and signed up for the full-time Shillington course. It was wild, but 100% the best decision I’ve made.
Inspiring me
I don’t always have as much time as I’d like to go to galleries and exhibitions so I find myself drawing inspiration from nature, architecture and day-to-day life. Like the way sunlight trickles through or bounces off of trees, plants, water, glass, or even just some old curtains... If I’m waiting for the bus I’ll usually pass the time by looking for something beautiful. Oh and I'm obsessed with Solange.
On reflection
Last year I started making a typeface from onion skins. I’d love to finish it this year, and spend a bit more time getting away from my screen. It turns out that playing with your food is really fun.
What's cooking?
I’ve just finished designing the brand identity for
@GoodGood_Yoga, a new yoga studio opening in London next month. It was my first full identity and I loved every minute of it.
