DesignerMim by Miriam
Thank you so much for visiting
This is me, I’m the face behind DesignerMim. My name is Miriam. I live and work in Cape Town, South Africa. I’ve been working professionally as a creative for over 15 years.
I worked at a leading South African clothing retailer for over a decade — working my way from the first Graphic Designer to be permanently employed, to the Graphics Lead of a small team. I was graphics support for every department in the clothing division at various times over the years, and I learned an incredible amount in my time there. In addition, I assisted multiple departments outside the clothing division on a variety of projects.
Having a lifelong passion for art and design, I love working in many forms of design. My work varies from vibrant illustrations, to energetic repeating surface patterns, to quirky graphics for clothing, to the subtleties of good label design… and because of this site, now a little front end dev too!
Please have a look at my updates page to see the variety of designs I have created recently. Send me an email if there is anything you’d love printed in your home, for your kid’s (or furkid’s!) bedroom, or for you to be wearing on a daily!
With a moka pot continuously on the stove! Nah, it’s not so bad. I get pretty engrossed in my work as I am highly focussed, passionate, and very purpose driven.
I love to continuously experiment and broaden my knowledge with new ways of working, motifs, materials — you name it. Changing things up and having a little fun while working are important to me.
Have a look at my briefing tips to get an understanding of what I need from you as my potential customer. I find it’s best to get as much info up front to minimise back and forth and keep everyone happy.
If you’d like to know a little more about me and what I’ve been working on lately, you’re welcome to have a check out my social media feeds.
