it’s time to discover your creative potential

Did you ever own a box of pencils as a child? Remember the excitement
you felt when you opened the box to find the vibrant colours artfully
arranged, each pencil beautifully formed, a vehicle of self-expression
offering myriad possibilities?
Studying at Billy Blue College of Design is like that box of pencils from
your childhood. Open it, and once more you’ll discover limitless
inspiration.
These pencils represent the core principles of a design education at Billy
Blue. Originally a school of illustration, the college has grown into so
much more, extending its reach into all disciplines of design. Put simply,
the college’s view of design no longer has horizons.
Billy Blue produces ‘thinkers who can make and do’. Your imagination
is the only limitation in a world where everything is interesting, change
equals creative innovation and anything is possible.
At Billy Blue, you create so much more than beautiful illustrations.
No matter the discipline, you learn to think, make and do, acquiring
relevant skills, collaborating with a talented creative community and
gaining practical experience with some of the design industry’s leaders
along the way. You discover how to think creatively to generate great
ideas and outcomes for the real world – brands, products, systems and
environments that have the potential to shape how we live.
As a Billy Blue graduate, your ‘box of pencils’ becomes you war chest of
ideas and skills, invaluable tools for a working designer: for the world has
never needed skilled, connected innovative problem-solvers more than
it does now.
