Print & illustration
Print design and illustration you can hold
Posters, editorial pieces, and illustrated objects — designed for paper, ink, and the moments people actually look twice.
Screen-first habits make weak print
Layouts that only work on a glowing rectangle often fall apart on paper: weak hierarchy, soft contrast, no sense of scale. Print needs craft — margins, type that sits, and images that survive ink.
What I provide
- Poster and campaign print design
- Editorial and small-publication layouts
- Illustration for print and brand use
- Prep for print production (specs, bleeds, colour notes)
- Coordination with photography when images lead the piece
Who it is for
- Cultural venues, festivals, and independent publishers
- Brands that still need physical presence — posters, flyers, booklets
- Studios looking for a partner who thinks in both pixels and paper
How the process works
-
Format & message
Size, print method, and what a stranger should understand in three seconds.
-
Concept
Type, image, and illustration directions that fit the brief — not decoration for decoration’s sake.
-
Design
Compositions that hold at distance and up close, with production constraints in mind from the start.
-
Files for press
Print-ready deliverables and clear notes so the printer (or you) can finish without surprises.

Why work with me
I still care about objects. A poster on a wall or a booklet in a hand has different rules than a feed. Print is also where brand systems land on paper — mark, type, and colour applied at arm’s length, not only on screens. That tactile bias shows up in my web and brand work too — hierarchy first, ornament second.

Questions
-
I design and prepare files. Printing is usually with your chosen printer; I can advise on specs and review proofs when helpful.
-
Copy (or a clear outline), any mandatory logos or photography, format and quantity, and how the piece will be used.
-
Yes, when illustration is part of the brief. Style follows the project rather than a single signature look forced onto everything.
-
No. A small run is fine when the format and the message are clear. What matters is that the piece has a real use.
