My name is Simon Hawes and I am a Design Director based in a London agency. I studied at Central Saint Martins school of Art and left in 1998 with my (BA) Hons ready to conquer the world. I have worked for some great companies and met some amazing people along the way.
Prior to my current position I was employed as Design Group Head at Haygarth in Wimbledon and Head of Design at LIDA M&C Saatchi, along with design lead at Initials Marketing.
I also curate an online showcase of Alternative Movie Posters from artist all over the world. With 1.7m views and counting, over 2500 posters and 700 artists, it is a great platform for both emerging and established talent.
