I’m Clair Neal, multidisciplinary Design Director with a focus on digital.

Partner at The Office of Future Interactions.

I like to unpack complex problems and create thoughtful experiences.

As a multidisciplinary designer, I have expertise spanning research and strategy, conceptual development, experience, product and innovation design.

I also have a small design practice called Land Studio® where I make things for fun in my free time.

I was part of the creative team at London design studio Kin for 5 years. As the Lead Designer I worked on broad range of projects including UX/ UI design, illustration, animation, exhibition design, branding, retail design and design for education.

Background

I started my design career at a small studio in Peterborough producing food photography and labelling for Marks & Spencer and designing interactive staff training tools for Asda Walmart. I went on to join marketing agency NVm and moved to London where we designed and developed some of the first direct-to-mobile music purchasing and download services for major record labels.

In 2010 I took a career break to study on the BA Design course at Goldsmiths before joining the design team at Kin.
