Boris Schneersohn

SAVANNAH COLLEGE OF ART AND DESIGN (SCAD)

Hi, I’m Boris Schneersohn. I’m from France and South Korea, born and raised in Hong Kong. During my 20 years of stay in Hong Kong, I was constantly exposed to multicultural experiences and people. I’m interested in improving the day-to-day experience of people from all walks of life. Exploring the development of identities, improvement of systems, or the creation of opportunities for collaboration. I love working with brands with passion and transforming their messages into something visible that communicates their stories and values. After graduation with my B.F.A. from SCAD, I’d love to join an agency or design studio. When I’m not designing, you can find me watching sad or romantic movies, reading, or listening to music. Thanks for taking the time to read my profile!

WHAT MAKES YOU FEEL INSPIRED?

Excellent work, design that truly catches your attention and makes you remember it forever. It makes me want to design something just as good, or even better.

WHAT AREA OR AREAS OF DESIGN ARE YOU HOPING TO WORK IN OR SPECIALIZE IN?

I really love creating identities for brands, as well as logo design. So, anything with branding and identity design.

WHAT IS ONE THING THAT DESIGN SCHOOL HAS TAUGHT YOU THAT YOU DID NOT EXPECT?

I learned that creatives in general do not sleep much.

WHO IS SOMEONE YOU LOOK UP TO IN YOUR FIELD? EITHER TODAY OR HISTORICALLY?

I have a lot of people I look up to. But a name that always stuck with me throughout my time designing is Paul Rand.
