Jake Deakin

Jake Deakin’s personal portfolio is a masterclass in high-impact, minimalist communication. Designed for a professional audience of recruiters, peers, and design leaders, the site serves as a digital business card that emphasizes pedigree and personality. By stripping away all visual noise, the site directs absolute focus toward Deakin's impressive professional trajectory at Meta, InVision, and MYOB, establishing immediate authority in the product design space. The visual identity is defined by a bold, typographic-driven aesthetic that leans into the power of whitespace and heavy sans-serif type. The monochromatic palette and brutalist-adjacent layout create a sense of modern sophistication and directness. It is a confident, no-nonsense design that mirrors the efficiency and clarity expected of a senior design leader, prioritizing substance and narrative over decorative flair.
