About / J.Ivey
Independent / DetroitJustin Ivey is an independent multidisciplinary artist and designer working across identity, image-making, design systems, exhibitions, and public programming.
Based in Detroit, my work is informed by the city’s industrial heritage, independent publishing ethos, underground music culture, and just about any modernist manifesto set in Swiss typography. I’ve worked across dot-coms, startups, agencies, and Fortune 500 brands, designing interfaces, identities, experiences, and content along the way. I’ve spoken at Detroit Startup Week on art and blockchain, been featured in the Detroit Free Press for developing proprietary print processes and collaborating with local artists, won startup pitch competitions, and had my design tools featured in Berlin-based art publications. I bring extensive experience in client relationships, creative leadership, and presenting ideas to executives, from Detroit to San Francisco. Open to conversations ranging from cutting-edge to kitsch.
