About ME
Hi, I'm Tyler. I was born and raised in Vermont, but I've been living in BC for 15 years now. I work in graphic design and accessibility. Designing for low vision and diverse perception takes clarity, collaboration, and a thoughtful approach to tools and medium. The goal is to make things that work a bit better for everyone. I use the same ingredients in traditional graphic design. If you have questions about design, type, accessibility, or just need recommendations for getting outside in BC, don't hesitate, reach out.
OVERVIEW
I started and lead Optical, a variable font web tool for varied low vision. I do research, web, identity, type design and project management for the 20+ month project. Optical is based on feedback from experts in the low vision, type and technology communities, including a bunch of great people associated with the Disability Alliance of BC, the Advanced Reading Technologies team at Microsoft, the Readability Consortium, Google, and the Health Design Lab.

I assembled and produced the custom font files for the Love Scarborough campaign which helped raise over $1 billion for an underfunded hospital network in Toronto, working with Ogilvy and Liiift. Learn more →
I contributed web, type, identity, and wayfinding design to projects with the Health Design Lab for Aide Canada (national intellectual disabilities resource network), Dementia Lab, and the BC Cancer Agency.
