ABOUT Christopher Doyle
Christopher Doyle & Co. is led by Christopher Doyle (surprisingly), an internationally recognised designer with over 18 years experience.
Christopher has worked at some of Australia’s leading brand and design agencies. His work has won numerous local and international awards, been used globally as the basis for educational material and appeared in feature articles for Desktop Magazine, Creative Review and Grafik Magazine.
In 2009 Doyle was named one of Indesign’s Top Ten Faces and Forces of Design. In 2011 his work was selected to be part of Graphic Design: Now in Production, an exhibition co-organised by the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis and the Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum in New York City.
He has given talks for Brand New, Creative Mornings, Sex, Drugs & Helvetica, Semi Permanent, Kyoorius and the Australian Graphic Design Association (AGDA), and has lectured at colleges and universities throughout Australia. He has been featured on Australian Design Radio and made written contributions to Desktop Magazine, Design Assembly, Australian Creative and Process Journal and has served as a judge at D&AD, AGDA and AWARD.
He also once found a piece of Nutri-Grain breakfast cereal that looked like E.T. and sold it on eBay for a thousand dollars. True story.
