José Rosa is a visual artist and graphic designer centering duality. Through his upbringing between multiple cities in the U.S. and a small rural town in Puerto Rico, José has learned to appreciate the beauty in all things. Using a minimalist approach, in-depth research, and the influence of cultural familiarities, José’s preferred mediums are typography, logo design, and posters as tools to decolonize design. @jrosadesign
