Design with a local point of view
Graphic Designer in New Brighton
Are you looking for a designer that knows your community?
If you’ve spent any time in New Brighton you’ll know it’s a unique place. We’re coastal, creative, community-minded and do things a little bit differently, and I love that about us.
Over the years, I’ve worked alongside local businesses, community organisations, and projects helping shape the place I call home. From creating New Brighton Online’s branding, which has bled into an overall vibe for the mall, to some really fun placemaking projects, that local connection matters.
When you understand the people, places and character behind a community, you can create authentic work that feels like it belongs here, rather than cookie cutter design.
Brand Strategy and Logo Design
Create a brand people recognise and trust
Your brand is more than a logo, it’s how people feel when they interact with your business. I create visual identities that reflect who you are, what you stand for, and who you’re here to serve.
From initial strategy through to final delivery, I design branding that feel clear, cohesive, and easy to use across all platforms.
Print and Editorial Design
Clear, considered design for everyday communication
Good graphic design should make information easier to understand and actions easier to take. I create bold, thoughtful designs that balance creativity with clarity, ensuring your message is seen, understood, and remembered.
Website Design
Responsive, functional websites that do their job
Your website should feel easy to use, visually aligned with your brand, and clear about what you offer. I design responsive, user friendly websites that help visitors quickly understand who you are and what to do next.
Whether you need a new site or a refresh, I focus on your customer’s experience, so your website supports your business goals.
Custom Illustration
Bespoke illustration with personality
Illustration is a powerful way to add warmth, character, and uniqueness to your brand. I create custom illustrations that help explain ideas, support storytelling, and bring a human touch to digital and print design.
Ideal for brands wanting something a little more distinctive and expressive.
Creative Design Lead
Keeping creative projects calm, clear, and on track
Managing creative projects can feel overwhelming, especially when multiple people are involved. I offer creative direction and project management to keep things organised, communicative, and moving forward.
I’ll act as your design lead, and central point of contact; managing timelines, contractors, and deliverables so you can focus on the bigger picture.
