About
What’s a pseudoroom? In 1996, as a scruffy lad in art school, Justin’s conceived fledgling web site was a virtual folio display in a quasi physical space: a pseudo room. The name has stuck through the course of time. The broad concept is derivative of his infatuation with design; in particular, its infusion with the digital landscape.
A graduate of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, Justin is a multi-faceted, multi-pierced, and multi-tattooed designer who cites Carlos Segura and Josef Muller-Brockman among his design influences. Thriving on both digital and print-based design, his work in creative media has been published many times over, including the books 1 x 1: Pixel-Based Illustration & Design, DNA: Identity, European art and culture magazine Frieze, and numerous Macintosh publications.
Justin is the co-founder/designer of GUI Galaxy, a daily read for Mac and tech news, as well as a news author on K10k, the internet’s premier design portal. A Human Factors International-trained usability designer, he was a GUI judge for the 2006 Avion Awards, which honors excellence in airline entertainment. In previous lives, he was a Senior Designer at supply chain management behemoth i2 Technologies, and formed the Usability and Interface Design department at the Hostway Corporation.
Currently Justin is the Creative Director for Xeno Media, Inc.
