Ash Henderson
<p>Ash Henderson launched their career in design immediately after graduating, securing an internship with Sky before stepping into a full-time role at JCDecaux—the world’s largest outdoor advertising company.</p>
<p>Since joining JCDecaux, Ash has been a key member of the Airport Design Team, working on high-profile projects across major UK airports. One of the most exciting and challenging briefs to date involved designing an innovative advertising format for Heathrow’s VIP lounge, alongside a striking exterior bridge site at the airport. These projects pushed Ash beyond traditional design approaches, offering the opportunity to apply fresh thinking and creativity in a fast-paced commercial environment.</p>
<p>Reflecting on their time at Arts University Plymouth, Ash describes the experience as a springboard into the design industry. The University's hands-on, experimental environment encouraged the development of practical skills, critical thinking and creative confidence. Access to industry-standard facilities and a supportive community of staff and students provided the ideal foundation to explore new techniques and materials.</p>
<p>Ash continues to grow within the creative sector, bringing curiosity, adaptability and a passion for innovation to every brief.</p>
