Brief Summary
Dustin E. Arnold began his career studying communication design and art direction at Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California. His experiences compounded his interests into marketing, fashion and the decorative arts where he became fascinated with the culture of brands as a powerful tool for collaboration across professional disciplines.

Implementing brands at both a visual and strategic level, he believes that brands at their best function as both an economic and creative property, providing opportunities to seduce the consumer, incite desire and drive sales while simultaneously influencing culture in a massive way.

With a focus on brand innovation and premium properties he has since created identities, images and branded objects for clients such as: Issey Miyake, Levi Strauss, Bang&Olufsen, Big Magazine, Apple, Sony, Nike Japan, Douglas Little & Co., Nokia, Harry Winston and Vertu to name a few. His branding and packaging work has appeared in such publications as Lucky, Vogue, Angeleno, Idn(Japan), House & Garden, and Etapes (France).

Fall 2007 marked Dustin’s first role as an instructor at Art Center College of Design where he taught Communication Design 1 for Advertising and Graphics students part time while maintaining his studios clientele.
