Salut
I like using design to solve real-life puzzles, learning from experiments and making work simpler for everyone.
Design is the rendering of care.
My name is Francis Benoit. I’m a Canadian living in Montréal, Québec. Design is my way of understanding and interacting with the world around me.
Therefore, to me, Design is the rendering of care.
I teach Visual Design and UX at University of Toronto to a wide range of learners. Sharing one of my passions is the best reminder that design can be a force for good.
Read about my teaching philosophy →There's also life after design: I enjoy road running, making lists of my favourite places, and trying to master the perfect cortado at home. I like going fast, but endurance is my thing.
Before diving into design, I studied fine arts and photography. The latter is still a big part of my life. While it’s now a hobby, it's a goal of mine to share my work publicly.
A few pictures I’m proud of →
