Brooklyn-based designer Dean Roper creates objects for the “betterment" of daily life- drawing inspiration from junk food, popular culture, drugs, memes, novelty bongs at head shops, naive outsider art, sports, fashion, and growing up.

I moved to downtown Manhattan in 2002 and now live in Brooklyn's Clinton Hill neighborhood. I know most of my friends through my work designing art books and art-directing fashion magazines. Now that I have a wife and daughter, the most fun parts of my week take place during the day instead of at night.

Freelance illustrator and designer made in Italy, based in NYC.
