Graphic Design
A strong and consistent brand identity can make your business stand out from the competition. I can work with you to build a successful brand by developing your visual identity online and in print.
From social media assets to business cards, stickers to flyers, no job is too big or too small.
The design process

Let’s Get Started
Drop me an email with a little information about your project and what you’re looking to create.
Depending on what you need, I can provide a quote with an estimated timeframe, or offer recommendations on things like the right product, paper stock, print finish or quantity to help you work out what’s best for your project.
Looking for some inspiration?
I always recommend starting a Pinterest board. Save anything that catches your eye - colours, fonts, layouts, imagery, products, or even things you know you don’t like. It’s a really useful way for me to get a feel for your style and where you’d like to go creatively.
You can take a look at The Native State Pinterest for an example.

Design Process & Payment
Once you’re happy with the quote and timeframe, I’ll get started by researching ideas and developing the creative direction for your project.
I’ll then send you an initial exploration document, which may include suggested colour palettes, typography, layouts, imagery and creative ideas, depending on the project. Where appropriate, I’ll also show concepts in real-world mock-ups so you can get a feel for how the design could work in practice.
From there, we’ll develop and refine the chosen direction together, making adjustments along the way until we arrive at a final design you’re completely happy with.
A 50% deposit is required before work begins. The remaining 50% is due on completion, prior to final files being supplied.

Final Files & Print
Once the design has been signed off, I’ll prepare your final files, ready for print or supplied in the appropriate digital format.
If you’re ordering printed materials through me, print jobs typically take 4–7 working days from sign-off to dispatch, depending on the product and supplier.
The final 50% payment is due before final files are supplied or a print order is placed.
