Hi, I'm Claire

I’m a freelance graphic designer based in West Sussex. I’ve been a graphic designer for over 20 years and have designed everything from motorcycle decals to magazines and pretty much everything in between.

For 18 years, I was employed by publishers, marketing agencies, PR agencies and media and events companies, working my way up from intern to head of design. On my way, I've had the privilege of working on some fantastic projects and have picked up a host of other useful skills such as sub-editing, proof-reading and knowledge of marketing practices, but once I’d reached ‘the top’, I discovered that my day was full of management meetings, emails, budgets and planning. The colour had quite literally drained from my creative world. I realised that I’m happiest when I’ve got my sleeves rolled up, some music in my ears and I’m in-the-zone with a design project, so I took the bold decision to go freelance. Now, my world is once again filled with the colour and creativity I bring to my clients projects and I want to use my skills to help your business too.

I’m not precious, your project will always be your project. You need a design that you’re happy with and that works for your business, so I’ll guide you as much or as little as you need throughout the creative process. If you have ideas, great, allow me to bring them to life for you. If you haven’t got a clue, don’t worry, I know what questions to ask to help me produce the solution you need.

If your project also needs a writer, an editor, a marketing expert or an illustrator, allow me to introduce you to my trusted network of talented experts. With our knowledge and experience, we can manage your whole project seamlessly from start to finish.

Whether you’re a small business needing some design direction or a bigger business needing a design chameleon who can blend seamlessly into your existing team and relieve the pressure at busy times, I can help.
