Miss my 🌐 old site? Here you go.
I’m Andrei, and James Junk is my solo design practice. I’m a Filipino graphic designer based in LA with an alignment for cultural and social good. You can call me Andrei or James.

My work often carries the air of advertising from bygone American eras—frenzied with energy and optimism, but jacketed by a pragmatic precedence. My specialty is not having a specialty, spanning branding and art direction, packaging and print, type and illustration, digital and content, and video and motion. I’ll even do some wordplay and copywriting if you make me.

My client track record is likewise kitchen-sink-esque, coming from activism, tech, beauty, wellness, music, fashion, creative, and entertainment spaces. My agency experience and freelance game have been recognized by industry-leading sites, blogs, and organizations like It’s Nice That, Forbes, Fast Company, the Webby Awards, the Shorty Awards, the Design Kids Awards.

My email is howdy@jamesjunk.co if you want to work together, or just to say hey, or to pay an invoice in advance (this is my favorite.)
