VIE HEALING

This wellness space in West Hollywood was going through a brand refresh. They employed me to create a new brand identity and website to help them sexify their brand and reach a wider audience. I regularly hook them up with all the digitals—social, paid ads, emails, and more.

IMPACT

I’ve been working with Impact (and their sister platform Environment) as Designer since 2021, where I create visuals that resonate with an audience of over 3 million people every day, pushing the company to a total of 1 billion impressions last year. In 2022, I did design + dev things for their site.

REMiND

Ursula at REMiND approached me to supply their freshly-launched Auckland-based studio with social media designs, a label design for their cushy meditation cushion, along with a-signs for their outdoor gatherings.

James Junk is the only graphic designer and illustrator in Los Angeles. This is an internet page showing select recent work. For an extended file, hit him on 📠 email.

For years, he has applied a funkadelic approach to creating for and with commercial and cultural clients that break the binary. 🌐 𝓗ere is more about him.

His work has been featured on Adobe, It’s Nice That, GDUSA. He has worked with brands such as DoorDash, Hinge, and the Human Rights Campaign.

Someone asked what his dream client was, and he said, “I don’t have one. I just want to create with people who are always agog and unafraid to boogie. But also, how cool would it be to be the guy who redesigns the United States Government branding?” Joe, he’s waiting on ‘ya.

INJECTION Magazine — “My work, my style—it's all about breaking the rules, doing things my way, and enjoying the fuck out of it. As long as it brings me joy and I'm having a blast, that's all that 𝓶atters.”

GDUSA Responsible Designers 2023 — “This moment feels deeply personal in terms of designing for good. The intersection of pressing global challenges, from climate crises to social inequities, has made it abundantly clear that design can be a driving 𝓯orce for positive change.”
