Eric Hu
& collect
Eric Hu was born in the San Gabriel Valley of Southern California in 1989. He is a designer and art director based in Brooklyn, NY. "My enthusiasm for graphic design lies in its ability to orchestrate seemingly isolated actions into a broader cultural narrative. Everything somehow ends up becoming a form of storytelling and the platforms available today to present these points of view are becoming more robust than ever." He studied at Art Center College of Design and has an MFA in graphic design from Yale University.
