Nacari Heron
Arlington, Virginia

Nacari Heron is a designer working at the intersection of systems, technology, and visual communication. His practice explores how design can function as infrastructure — building frameworks, interfaces, and conceptual systems that shape how ideas are organized and experienced.

Drawing from backgrounds in engineering environments and creative experimentation, his work focuses on structure: the underlying logic behind visual systems, digital tools, and interactive environments.

Through research, prototypes, and conceptual projects, he investigates how design can operate not just as aesthetics, but as a way of thinking — creating systems that support creativity, exploration, and new forms of interaction.
