About Judson Hermans
Design’s best trick is turning something boring into something you feel. A brochure becomes an adventure. A page becomes a landscape. A five-minute interaction becomes a memory that outlasts it.
A professor of mine put it better than I ever could: design shows someone a world they never imagined, but can’t live without.
I’ve spent my career chasing that trick — as a designer, illustrator, and creative director living in Austin, Texas, with my wife and two kids.
For eight years I was Creative Director at DISCO, taking the legaltech startup from thirty people through IPO. I built the brand from the inside — logo, illustration, motion, web, print, events — then built a team to keep building it with me.
Outside of client work, you might find me building a LEGO set with my kids, attempting to learn the banjo, or flipping through a box of old X-Men comics.
