I'm Jim, the founder, designer & engineer behind the MagicPattern toolbox.
For many years, I was struggling to create engaging visuals for products, branding and interfaces. Their creation required pro design skills or many hours of practice.
That's why I build MagicPattern. My mission is to help people create pro graphics with no effort and no prior design knowledge.
