Hello,
I'm Ivan Vashliaev, a visual storyteller shaped by the quiet force of the northern land and the sharp clarity of modern design. Now based in London, Ontario, I recently completed the Graphic Design Advanced Diploma at Fanshawe College, where I refined my approach to branding, editorial design, and visual identity.
My journey started not behind a screen, but in a quiet studio surrounded by canvases and oil paints. Years spent studying fine arts taught me the discipline of form, light, and composition - but it was the world of graphic design that gave me the tools to turn those instincts into impact.
I've designed brochures for fashion retailers, created brand identities for architectural firms, and painted murals that blend abstraction with culture. Whether sketching on paper or building digital layouts, I chase the sweet spot where clarity meets emotion - where design doesn't just look good, but feels right.
My work is bold but thoughtful, structured but human. I care about detail, rhythm, and the subtle choices that make a design unforgettable. When I'm not working, I'm usually somewhere outdoors — hiking a trail, climbing a wall, or just chasing light with a sketchbook in hand.
Let's create something unexpected!
