Steve Edge has always been surrounded by creativity. His father, an outsider artist, encouraged Steve, who was home taught from the age of four, to express himself and pursue his ideas from a young age.
This upbringing paved the way for his first major prize, a European Young Artist of the Year award at the age of 15, which quickly led to bigger and better things. Namely, a role in the art department at the age of 17 for such seminal films as Star Wars and Raiders of The Lost Ark.
In 1985, Steve founded his own branding agency, Steve Edge Design, and over the past 40 years he’s worked with the world’s biggest names, from Christian Dior and Fortnum & Mason to Skanska, Cartier and Purdey Guns, to name but a few.
Steve puts his creative success down to his dyslexia, which allows him to see the world from new and original perspectives. This way of thinking has led to him winning the prestigious Dyslexia Action Award for Contributions to Design. He has spoken extensively on dyslexia and creativity, highlighting the importance of thinking laterally, not literally, and his key philosophy is "Dress for a party every day and the party will come to you”.
