Who is Jermaine?

Hey, I am Jermaine, 24 years old and freshly graduated from my Communication Design studies. My mother is from South Korea and Christian, my dad is from Ghana and Muslim. I live here in Hamburg, Germany, and I'm trying to be myself to the fullest extent.

What are you doing here and tell us who you really are?

I’m a Junior Designer at Hyperfocus, diving into the world of design with passion and curiosity. Who am I? A creative who loves making things, whether it's design, music, photography, or fashion.

How did you come to work with Hyperfocus?

After finishing my studies, I was eager to find a space that matched my creative vision. My mentor, Alexander Meinhardt, highly recommended Hyperfocus. After a few inspiring chats with the team at one of his events, it felt like the perfect fit. The energy and dedication here is infectious, and I feel honored to join.

What made you fall in love with design?

My passion for design ignited with my first job at a textile printing company. Seeing digital designs come to life was exciting —as it turned ideas into something tangible.

What's your style?

It is my aim to refine my style as I go. I love experimenting with edgy textures and striking contrasts. I tend to create a solid foundation for my designs, then adding a visual provocation.

You working on anything big in the background?

Music, especially producing beats, is my biggest hobby alongside design. I hope to upgrade my home studio step by step and connect with more artists.
