Harry Hepburn is a London-based graphic designer, who specializes in editorial design, specifically for newspapers. Growing up, he was always reading magazines and newspapers and eventually went on to study at art college. There, the then art director of The Sunday Times set a task to redesign the first three pages of the newspaper. Harry quickly became fascinated with newspaper design and was offered his first job in the industry by the same director.
Since then, Harry has worked for publications like The Telegraph, as well as The Sunday Times, helping them to tell important stories with his clean, concise, but punchy style. He’s also won several awards including the Society of Publication Designers Merit Award and the World’s Best Designed Newspaper along with his team in 2019.
