My name is Matt Safian and I am a designer from Brooklyn, New York, who specializes in graphic projects, desktop icons, iPhone icons, wallpapers, and websites. You can find me around the web on Twitter, Last.fm, Dribbble and Forrst. I also occasionally write down my thoughts over on my blog. If you want to reach me directly, just drop me a line at desk@mattsafian.com.

I’m not exactly sure as to how my love of design came about, but looking back it all seems to make sense. I always enjoyed drawing. I used to draw creatures and robots, use coloring books, trace different pictures. I have always loved computers (specifically everything Apple. I’m a Mac.) The one thing that I have always enjoyed doing, is customizing the UI of my laptop. It was that customization that intrigued me and led me to start creating my own icons. Whenever I see a great icon or poster or website, it inspires me to try and drive my work to a new level and create something that will hopefully inspire others.
