Jax

Jax Carter grew up in a small town in Oklahoma, where Friday night football games were as sacred as Sunday church services. A star quarterback in high school, Jax embraced the camaraderie and competitive spirit of his hometown, but he also had an artistic side that set him apart. Between practices and church events, he’d sketch designs inspired by vintage football posters, roadside diners, and the bold graphics of old advertisements. His love for Americana and his knack for design earned him a reputation as the “creative jock” among his peers. After an injury sidelined his football career, Jax turned to design as his new calling. At UCCA, he’s found a way to blend his passion for retro Americana with futuristic aesthetics, creating a style that feels both nostalgic and forward-thinking. His standout projects include vintage-inspired corporate branding with a modern twist, as well as custom furniture pieces like coffee tables shaped like mid-century football helmets. Jax’s designs reflect his roots: bold, unapologetic, and distinctly American. Whether he’s designing a sleek logo for a startup or a set of retro-themed home decor, he aims to celebrate the individuality and resilience that define the American spirit. His work often incorporates bright colors, clean lines, and timeless typography, appealing to both corporate clients and everyday consumers who appreciate a touch of nostalgia. While not all of Jax’s Americana-inspired creations are available in the UCCA Merch Store due to production limitations, the pieces featured reflect his commitment to high-quality, US-centric design. Your feedback is crucial to Jax as he continues to refine his vision and bring the heart of America to life through his work.
