About

Marcus Swan is a multi-disciplinary designer, manager and creative director from Dublin. He works across a broad range of design for digital, product, service and brand experiences.

Profile

Marcus is passionate about design and believes that great ideas coupled with flexible and iterative design processes can create effective outcomes, instead of outputs that just look nice. For over a decade his work has helped a wide range of clients, from start-ups to international businesses, from national broadcasters to individual artists.

His work is grounded in taking the time to listen, think and engage with people to make things simpler, clearer and easier – while looking, working beautifully and delighting people too.

Marcus has been managing and directing projects, designers and teams for the majority of his career — including hiring, mentoring and managing all levels of designers. Helping, managing and empowering others – whether they are team members, stakeholders or end users – and bringing people together around a challenging project or problem is one of my key attributes and talents.
