My name is Jacob Romero. I’m a artist and designer, living and breathing in Chicago, Illinois. I am curently studying Industrial Design at the University of Illinois Chicago. 

Currently, I am a Graphic Design Intern at NFW, a bio-material start up based in Peoria, Illinois.

My work is inspired by the metaphysical, ricocheting electronic music, and contemporary art, film, and literature. I am passionate about experimental design and implementing it into my practice.

I believe design is just another way of communicating, 
    it’s really not that serious.
