HEY HOI MARHABAH! 

I'm Hajer (HA-DGER), a Dutch/Arabic Graphic Designer and Photographer based in Manchester, UK. After graduating with a BA in Graphic Design at Kingston School of Art, London, I have been doing all sorts from interning at design studios, to freelancing solo, to leading all design at the Northern Design Festival. I am fascinated by observing the complex patterns behind behaviors and systems that surround us in everyday life through philosophical ideas., which I bring to light through design for others to experience with me. My background prominently showcases publication design, conceptual idea generation, typography, and experiential exhibition design, whilst expanding my experience further in art direction, branding, and identity design. 

ACHIEVEMENTS: 
D&AD New Blood - The Portfolios 2025 Award 
Face Your Privilege Shortlisted for Creative Conscience 2023 

SIDE NOTE:
I love birds, chess & jigsaw puzzles.
I’m trilingual and I like showing it off :)
I save 3 backups of my files just in case Adobe decides to crash.

THANKS DANKJE SHUKRAN
