To celebrate our ADC Young Guns 9 call for entries, the ADC is interviewing 10 past winners about how they got to where they are today.

Our sixth installment features Alex Lin (YG5), founder of Studio Lin. Studio Lin is a graphic design practice whose process is founded on a desire to explore new territory through challenging collaborations with creative visionaries in the fields of architecture, industrial design, art and fashion.

After receiving an MFA in graphic design from Yale University, Alex spent six years at the design firm 2×4 prior to opening Studio Lin. His work has been featured and awarded by leading design publications such as Wallpaper, ID Magazine, Print Magazine, Metropolis, Azure, Tank, Surface, Architectural Record, Span, Victionary and exhibited at the Cooper Hewitt National Design Museum.
