Slanted in L.A.: Rob Carmichael / SEEN

In a town like L.A. and on a production like Slanted’s, which brings together the material for a magazine, not everything has to work out. Often, the best things happen when they’re not planned, just as they did when we went to this gleaming city in fall 2019. We were happy to meet the luminaries from the local creative scene and we are thrilled to share our inspiring encounters with you.

Rob Carmichael opened SEEN in 2005 after many years as a designer in the music and publishing industries. SEEN is an independent art direction and graphic design studio primarily serving clients in music, publishing, and the arts. The studio’s work is realized in various mediums: Packaging, books, posters, clothing, identities, and websites. SEEN is based in El Sereno, L.A..

The work of Rob Carmichael and his design studio SEEN can be found in the Slanted Magazine #35—L.A.. Additionally we shot a video interview to talk about his/her attitude and view of things. Take a look at our new issue and the video platform to encounter new ways of design thinking!
