Communication Design is about creating visual messages that inform, inspire and connect with people. Students combine creativity, storytelling and human-centred thinking with digital and print design skills to develop meaningful communication across a range of media. By solving real-world communication challenges through ethical and impactful design, they help organisations and brands engage audiences and build lasting relationships.
Communication Design
I didn’t become a designer overnight. I grew through messy sketches, moments of doubt, and sparks of clarity that reminded me why I love what I do. I treat ideas like plants, nurturing them and watching them grow into something alive. I’m drawn to bold, curious ideas that make people stop and feel. Every project is grown with care and heart.

“Fantasy is where an individual can truly express themself.” I’m Francesca, an illustrator and graphic designer. My work delves into the emotions, dreams, and curiosities that are rooted in reality, but inspired by fantasy’s design. I embrace the creative and the unconventional, as I am a very quiet individual who loves to explore the unknown and try new approaches.

Hello, I’m Jordyn Weidemann, a communication designer and photographer who loves turning ideas into stories that move people. I’m all about bold visuals, fearless creativity, and designs that push limits. Whether it’s branding or photography, I love capturing raw emotion and turning it into visuals that stay with you long after you’ve seen them.

Hey, I am Joshua Blignaut, a graphic designer shaped by the idea that creation is both a process of building and breaking, that every masterpiece carries the mark of what came before it. My work lives in contrast between light and shadow, structure and ruin, silence and expression and is a reflection of how I see art: as something that should disrupt, move, and linger long after it’s seen.

Hello there. I’m Ronan-Charles Pereira, the designer behind Squid Ink Design. I believe creativity should be bold, fun, and unafraid. I’m a headstrong designer who doesn’t let limitations hold me back, always pushing to create visual experiences that feel fresh, expressive, and inviting. I’m passionate about high-detail designs in black and white. I aim to make people feel something when they step into my world.

I am Stefni Kuschke, an enrolled Communication Design (Graphic Design) Student. As I grew up on a farm, I am very fond of nature, the different elements in it, and how everything in nature interacts. I take satisfaction in incorporating it into my designs. Creative designing for me is not just to showcase the appealing; it’s about telling a story. As a designer, I’ve learned that positive criticism from other people’s input is not a mistake, but a necessity, as they notice things you don’t always do.

Hi. I’m Ty, a communication designer specialising in packaging, branding and editorial design, driven by intention, empathy, attention to detail and impact. Blending minimalist elegance with bold expression, I craft thoughtful visual solutions that tell stories, spark emotion, and connect meaningfully with audiences, bringing visions to life.
Communication Design
Hi, I am Vinny. I move through the world knowing nothing really makes sense, and that is the fun part. As a designer, I do not chase logic; I chase feeling. I love the messy in-between, the contradictions, the quiet chaos, the weird little truths that make things real. My work lives between instinct and irony, a bit wild, a bit soft, always honest. To me, design is a way to stay awake to the world, to turn the absurd into something that feels alive.
