Ciao! I'm Jason Bishop, a New York-based Design Director.
Good design comes from a collaborative design culture, not from one person.
My career spans over 20+ years across various mediums and disciplines. I'm grateful to have studied and worked with a diverse range of people, clients, brands, and agencies of all shapes and sizes.
I grew up bi-coastal in California and Virginia and was possessed by skateboarding, arcades and underground music. Lately, I'm stoked about astronomy, vinyl, mystery mixed tapes, museums, and eternal legendary design.
I'm currently the Design Director in the e-commerce fashion space for Tapestry across Coach, Kate Spade, and Stuart Weitzman.
I specialize in UI Design/Creative Direction, Leading Creative Teams, Modern Design Systems, Strategic Activation, and Motion Graphics.
Design system wizardy, UX science, and strategic alchemy.
Progressive leadership with on-brand, on-time, and spell-binding proven results.
Magical motion graphics, interactivity, & prototypes.
The first act as a designer is to always actionably listen. Eyes open, minds open, & ears alert.
Gather as many insights, inputs, & requirements or perform what's necessary if it doesn't already exist.
Identify the why, purpose, key objectives, constraints, and state the strategy explicitly.
Actualize in design while considering all the findings and problems to solve. Iterate, prototype, test, and check for opportunities of innovation.
Refine along the way while keeping in only what is needed without losing the detail and vision.
Good design always exhibits detailed execution & follow through. Implementation is key.
Gather feedback, analyze results, & accept constructive ideas for improvements.
The cycle of design never ends. Go back to 1.
Be humble.
