Print

I do pretty much any print work you might need. Such as posters, business cards, books (both cover and content), newspapers, magazines, CD/DVD covers and package design. For newspapers and magazines I can either work with an existing layout or create a new style and identity.

Branding

This usually includes a logo and graphic manual. I can either create a completley new identity for you or modify and upgrade an existing one. You might also need stationary such as business cards, letter head, envelopes etc to enhance your visual identity.

Web Design

I can provide you with just a web design if you already have a programmer or I can do both front- and back-end work for you. I use Joomla as a CMS (Content Management System) which I will teach you to use so you can maintain your own site.
