Info

Hi there! My name is Bao Anh Bui.

Born and raised in Vietnam, I am now living in Singapore. Here, I went to LASALLE College of the Arts to pursue my study in Visual Communication Design, in which I was absorbed in the wonder of graphic design, advertising & media arts. In the process of which, I stumbled upon a medium of interest - website development & programming.

My practice revolves around the usage of certain media in a meaningful way, to convey the essence of that medium. Whether it's through web-based platforms, in a book format, digitally, or through analog means, my goal is to communicate with people from the means of communication itself.

How did I learn 'Development' ?


It all began with a request from an organization during my second year of college. They needed a website for their online magazine, but unfortunately, their budget couldn't stretch to hire an additional web developer to join me in the project. Faced with this challenge, they asked if I could work with a provided web builder called Semplice. This tool was primarily a drag-and-drop interface with limited customization options. However, my desire to infuse some captivating interactions into the website led me down an uncharted path. I took it upon myself to learn JavaScript, and I soon found myself tinkering with the code. Looking back, I was quite impressed with what I had accomplished, and that experience inspired me to pursue web development in a more structured and comprehensive manner.

With litle experience in this particular field, I had a pretty hard time initially. However, through a lot more hands-on website projects, I navigated my pathway from using merely web builder tools, to grasping the essential trio HTML, CSS & Javascript, specifically delving into the programming concepts via JS and later on, getting my hands on popular web frameworks / tools / plugins. It kept expanding to adapt whatever the need is. The vast majority of my technical knowledge were self-sourced from the Internet, with a healthy dose of trial and error.

However, that does not imply that I did not have any experience with group working. As a graphic designer by nature, I had experiences working with fellow programmers for app/web-based projects. Some of them graciously allowed me to hop in the coding aspects, an experience for which I'm so thankful. These opportunities in return facilitates my understanding of working across multiple disciplines with different sets of rules to follow respectively.

While I readily admit that my technical prowess may not be awe-inspiring and may contain its share of imperfections, I have the capacity to learn and the audacity to embrace things that are not passively fed to my mouth.

About my Graphic Design...


Graphic design is what I am professionally qualified for and is one of the first lenses through which I see the world. It has sparked in me lots of ideas and desires, acted as an entry point to explore other media and areas of knowledge to reach goals that sometimes lie beyond visual communication.

My skills encompass a range of design forms, from 2D to 3D, digital , print , website , motion graphic , illustration. During my college years, I received recognition for my efforts, including the LASALLE Scholarship for the academic years 2020-2021 and 2022-2023. I also earned the Certificate of Typographic Excellence from TDC67 by the Type Directors Club in NYC, the Red Dot Junior Award in 2021, and the D&AD New Blood Yellow Pencil in 2022. In 2023, I received a SILVER award in the Creative Conscience Awards. Moreover, my work has also been featured in Slanted Magazine #42 - BOOKS in 2023, which has been a humbling experience that further fuels my passion for design.
