About Oswin Tickler

I am an art director, designer and educator specialising in experimental publishing and editorial design. Clients are primarily arts and educational institutions with a community focus. Always keen to hear from potential clients, particularly if it challenges me, and the work we do together is of social benefit. My work is often typified by a directness of approach and simplicity of form, getting to the heart of what clients need to communicate.
