Matthew
Roop
I'm Matthew. I'm a NY based designer, teacher, and creative leader working abroad.
I’ve spent time collaborating with renowned designers, leading agencies, and in the Web3 space. I first worked at Sagmeister & Walsh, Lippincott, and Foreign Policy, then joined Jessica Walsh as a Senior Designer as she launched &Walsh. Later, I ventured into Web3 as VP of Design at ZEBEDEE, building an “in-house agency” from the ground up. Now, I run YEYE Design Studio—a design agency dedicated to creating self-aware, idea-led designs for everyday people. Our clients span Web3, AI, defense, publishing, and DTC brands.
Every person we meet has a story to tell. Having worked all around the U.S. with a few years in Asia, I've heard countless stories. This is what fuels my unique style of design and leadership.
And as it turns out...radical empathy works.

My
Skillset
I am a generalist. This allows me to design without limits while speaking the language of specialists in niche situations. All of these are represented at a high level throughout my portfolio of client and agency work.
