Robyn Walker
It is fate that brought Robyn into the world of design. When she was 17, her teacher took her to the side to tell her she shouldn’t study Psychology, she should instead use her incredible talent and undertake a degree in the design field. She then last minute changed her degree to Product Design, and spent 3 years acing both the mathematical and the artistic aspects of product design. During her placement year she worked in merchandising at L’Oreal and she was so successful that part way through her final year she was asked to work full-time as soon as she graduated.
Making the leap to London she worked in Visual Merchandising for a few years, until her artistic side got the better of her and she decided to quit and pursue a role where she could have more creative freedom and utilise her artistic skillset paired with her commercial mindset. She now works as the Senior Designer at Wunder2, where she manages her own Junior Designer and gets to lead the design of entire makeup ranges and re-brands. As well as this, in her spare time she enjoys painting and regularly receives commissions for anything from huge abstract canvases to small intricate drawings.
