After collaborating on BRICKS Issue 15, graphic designer @yasseen_faik reflects on archives, typography, cultural work, and the realities of sustaining a career in design today.
Moving between music culture, institutional design, typography and printmaking, Faik’s work sits in a space where DIY aesthetics collide with structured systems. Raised on graffiti, rave flyers, video games and punk graphics, he has built a visual language that feels emotionally charged without losing functional clarity. “My work naturally lives somewhere in the middle, experimental and expressive, but still able to function within institutional or corporate spaces,” Faik tells us.
Now on Substack & Steady, he reflects on building an archive-driven creative practice, navigating underpaid creative labour, balancing artistic identity with client expectations, and why young designers need to stop waiting for permission to take themselves seriously.

Today, @southbankcentre has announced a major new strand of Harry Styles’ Meltdown festival dedicated to championing unsigned and emerging artists through a curated day of free outdoor live music on its Riverside Terrace.
On 17 June, the Southbank Centre’s outdoor stage will host a night-long takeover by @americanexpressuk Unsigned, an initiative supporting breakthrough opportunities for emerging musicians from the festival’s Official Supporting Partner, American Express. The programme brings together a line-up of rising artists selected from the Amex Unsigned roster, spotlighting new voices and future talent across a setlist of free performances, adding to Styles’ thoughtful Meltdown curation.
