Welcome

I specialise in handcrafted logos, custom illustrations and graphic design for print. I also design and build websites and manage social media and email marketing.

Logo Design and Branding

Whether it's a simple logo or a full brand identity that you're after, my process always begins with a pencil and a sketchpad and my goal is always the same; to deliver a custom made logotype that will immediately identify you and set you apart from your competition.

In cases where more than a single graphic mark is needed, I will work closely with you to understand the qualities of your business and to flesh out a personality for your company.

Once we've established the tone of your message any supporting graphics and marketing devices can be developed in line with your corporate identity andyour clients will enjoy a seamless brand experience.

Graphic Design and Illustration

From flyers and leaflet campaigns to exhibition signage, brochures and any other promotional marketing materials you can think of, the one thing they have in common is that they will all benefit from concise graphic design.

The first thing I ask myself as I begin any project is, “What is the message and how can I best convey it?". This simple yet often overlooked concept is fundamental when you begin the process of collecting images and text together to form a layout.

Along with the basic design elements of composition and typography, I can also provide custom illustrations when they're needed. Whether in a digital vector format or more traditional media, such as pen and ink, a custom illustration never fails to add a little something extra to a presentation.

Web Design and Hosting

When it comes to designing for the web, the most important thing to keep in mind is user experience, if your website doesn't display correctly, or your information is difficult to find, it doesn't matter how ‘pretty' your website is, that user is going to go somewhere else.

As a result, when I design a website the core is built with standardised code, the layout is structured with a ‘form follows function' ethic and the navigation is intuitive by contemporary standards – all this without sacrificing aesthetics.

I include in all my websites, basic search engine optimisation (SEO), the ability to update and manage your website yourself (CMS) and with the ever increasing use of mobile and tablet devices, I also offer responsive design, which adapts seamlessly to various screen sizes for a more pleasurable experience.

Social Media and Email Marketing

When using email campaigns and social media, not only can you continue fostering your corporate identity by telling the ‘story' of your brand and how you got to where you are, you can engage with your target audience on a daily basis, growing your customer base.

By interacting with your customers in this way, you will discover invaluable information about their demographics, their likes and dislikes and over time build brand equity with them.

Once you have a database of dedicated customers, email marketing campaigns are a great way to maintain a direct connection with them, keeping them informed of new products and promotions.
