Born and raised in
San Diego, California,
Nate Yates grew up
surrounded by the
Mexican culture. He
lived in a run-down
neighborhood, but is
very glad that he did,
learning much more
about life there than he
would have by living in
the quiet suburbs. His
art teacher was the first
person who introduced
him to graphic design
in his senior year.
Nate states: “Being a
practical lady, she had
no delusions of grandeur
for me, so she gave it to
me straight—‘Nate, don’t
try to be some starving
artist, you should be a
graphic designer.’” He
never had a desire to do
anything else since, and
continued his education
at San Diego State and
City College to create his
portfolio. In 2004, he
was awarded first place
in the AIGA San Diego
Student Portfolio Review.

621 Graphic design is about opening
your eyes towards your environment and
adapting what you see to your work. In
addition, we fi nd design books and design
blogs very inspiring.
622 There are some great books out
ther
e:
Yokoland
,
Type One
published by Die
Gestalten Verlag and
Hand Job
by Michael
Perry.
623 Get jobs through your website but
mostly through personal contacts. It’s one
of the most important rules.
624
Clients should know your style
bef
ore getting in touch. In that way, they
know what they can expect.

Create your work in a space that
ranges from creative chaos to purism.
625 Be serious to appear trustworthy.
We are all innately friendly.
626 Without e-mail and phone you can’t
communicate today, can you? But talking
face-to-face is the most personal and
eff
ective.
627
It’s important to feel comfortable
in the clothes we wear. There is no special
dr
ess code. And it is not always black. It
could be chic as well as casual, just natural.
628
We have recently discovered this
font: Berlin Park by Daniel Dolz.

Chemistry between people is key.
