One person.
The whole creative process.

I work across branding, illustration, UI/UX and website development, so you don’t need to coordinate separate designers, artists and developers to get an idea finished properly.

Why one person

What you get when the designer is also the developer, and the artist.

01

One person, idea to launch

Strategy, branding, design and development in a single pair of hands. Nothing gets lost in a handover because there isn’t one.

02

Creative and technical in one head

I paint, illustrate and design, and I write the code. The visual ideas are made with the build in mind, so they survive contact with a real browser.

03

Nothing off a template

Every project starts from your business, not a theme. Type, colour, imagery and layout are chosen for you, and it shows.

04

Brand and website that match

When the same person designs the identity and builds the site, they belong together. No colours drifting, no logo squashed into someone else’s header.

05

Straight answers, clear timelines

You deal with me directly. I’ll tell you what’s possible, what it costs and when it’ll be ready, in plain language.

06

Finished properly, down to the details

Spacing, type, hover states, load times, the 404 page. The small things are what make something feel considered, so I don’t skip them.

Services

What can we make?

Pick the closest fit. Most projects end up using two or three of these together, which is rather the point.

Branding

A brand that looks like your business, not a template.

Creative direction, identity and the supporting pieces that make it usable day to day. I draw the marks by hand where it helps, and I build the system so it still works when it is printed on a cup.

Included

  • Creative direction
  • Brand identity and logo design
  • Typography and colour
  • Supporting graphics and patterns
  • Packaging and stationery
  • Brand guidelines

Case studies

How it works

Four steps. No jargon.

Every project runs the same way, whether it is a logo or a whole business. You always know what is happening next.

Start with step one
  1. 01

    Tell me what you’re making

    A short call or email about the business, the audience and what you want to exist at the end.

    • No brief needed yet
    • Rough ideas are welcome
    • You get a clear quote and timeline
  2. 02

    We shape the direction

    I put together a visual direction: references, colour, type and a sense of tone, so we agree on the feel before anything is built.

    • Moodboards and early sketches
    • One or two clear directions
    • Feedback rounds built in
  3. 03

    I design and build it

    Identity, artwork, interface and code, all made together. You see progress as it happens rather than at the end.

    • Working previews you can click through
    • Real content, not lorem ipsum
    • Responsive from the start
  4. 04

    Refine, finish and launch

    Polish, testing across devices, handover files and a launch that goes to plan. Then support while you settle in.

    • Brand files and guidelines
    • Performance and accessibility checks
    • Launch support and training

About

I’m Ash, a Brisbane-based artist, designer and developer.

I work across branding, websites, UI/UX, illustration, animation and original artwork. That mix means I can take an idea from its earliest stage through to something complete, cohesive and ready to use.

My work combines the individuality of an artist with the structure and technical care of a developer. I’m reliable, detail-focused and easy to work with, and I care about making things properly.
