Design Studio was founded by me,
Nick La, a Toronto based illustrator
and web designer. I am also the
creator of the popular blog Web
Designer Wall, Design Jobs on the
Wall, IconDock, and Best Web Gallery.
My main focuses are designing stock
icons, illustrations, and beautiful CSS
websites. My work has been featured
in many online portals and design
publications such as: Computer Arts,
Web Designer, Practical Web Design,
Digit, and Web Design Index.

Ever since I was a kid, I always wanted
to be a visual artist. I was fascinated
with drawings, paintings, and art in
general. During my high school years,
I was introduced to Adobe Photoshop
by my art teacher and I fell in love with
it instantly. From that moment, I knew
I wanted to be a graphic designer.

I attended Humber College for a two-
year “Advertising and Graphic Design”
program where I learnt about
Photoshop, Illustrator, typography,
advertising, color and design theory.
After graduating, I realized advertising
was not something I wanted to do for
life. I started reading books and online
tutorials where I gained most of my
web design knowledge. With my
background in visual art, I was able to
create unique and artistic web design.

This site, N.Design Studio was actually
one of my college projects where I just
wanted to showcase my work online.
Now, I’m very happy that I turned my
passion into a career and business.
