SCOTT NEWLIN www.scottnewlin.com
Scott Newlin is an industrial designer currently living and working in New York City. He received degrees in both fine arts and industrial design at the California College of the Arts and the University of San Francisco. He has worked with IDEO, Peter Stathis, and Karim Rashid, among others. Newlin’s patterns merge simple line art, used to create classic patterns, and the complex gestures of hand-drawn illustration. The effect of the hand, with its subtle motions and striations, creates a depth that is lost when done digitally. He is currently applying his patterns to create limited-edition scarves.
