Kai Nakamura

I am applying for the Brand Designer position at Studio Northlight. Your identity work for independent makers – bold, simple and full of character – is the reason I became a designer, so this opportunity means a great deal to me.

Over five years I have created complete brand identities for more than 30 small businesses, from logo and typography to packaging and websites. One of my projects, a rebrand for a local coffee roaster, helped the client enter two national supermarket chains within six months.

I enjoy the whole process: listening to clients, sketching many ideas, and refining one until every detail is right. I am fluent in Adobe Creative Suite and Figma and comfortable presenting concepts directly to clients.

My portfolio is at kainakamura.example.com. I would be happy to walk you through a few projects and hear about the work ahead at Northlight.
