What makes up good Graphic Design?

The first pillar is creativity. Our team of graphic designers pride themselves on their ability to think outside the box and create unique and engaging designs that stand out in a crowded marketplace. We believe that creativity is the key to successful graphic design, and we work hard to infuse our designs with originality and imagination.

Our graphic designers take a calculated and decisive approach to their work. This means they carefully consider the goals and objectives of each project and work to create designs that not only look great but also effectively communicate the intended message. Our designers are experts at understanding the target audience and tailoring designs to appeal to them in the most effective way possible.

Another key pillar of our graphic design philosophy is the use of semiotics. We understand that every design element, from colour to typography, can convey a message, and we use these elements intentionally to create designs that communicate a brand's unique identity and message. Our designers are skilled at using semiotics to create designs that resonate with audiences. We understand the importance of manipulating the user to create a positive experience. Our designers use their knowledge of human psychology and behaviour to create designs that not only look great but also engage the viewer on a deeper level, creating a connection between the viewer and the brand.

Negative space is another important element of good graphic design, and our designers are experts at using it to their advantage. By carefully manipulating negative space, our designers can draw the viewer's eye to key elements of a design, creating a more dynamic and visually engaging experience.

At &Element, we believe that these key pillars of good graphic design are essential for creating designs that are not only visually stunning but also effective in achieving a brand's goals and objectives. Whether you need a new logo, website design, or marketing collateral, our team of experienced graphic designers has the skills and expertise needed to bring your vision to life. So if you're looking for a talented graphic designer, look no further than &Element.

How we do it

Planning and research

Design

In the first phase, we work closely with you to learn not only what your requirements are but the reasons behind them. By putting ourselves in your shoes, we can truly understand the problems that need to be solved.

After an initial free consultation, we build a requirements document and build a breakdown of design, development and support needed along with the hourly required. We charge an hourly rate so we can scale up or down depending on your needs. Usually, we will provide recommendations on where we can provide the most value.

Once you’re happy with the quote, we’ll send the contract over and after receiving the first payment we’ll move over to the design phase.

Creative Building Design Ltd

We needed a new redesign for our website to keep our online presence active. The &Elements team came into our offices, and we worked together on the requirements for the new website. A few days later, they came back with the design prototype, which after we approved we got our site up and running a couple of weeks later and it even works on mobiles now. Thanks guys!

Peter Cochrane OBE

Ex-CTO of BT

There is nothing like a change of career for creating a tidal wave of disruption; and after decades of leading industry, I was ready for a change. This needed capable hands and minds, but serendipitously, I met Element Softworks! After working with them over 2 months we created my new brand and website. Luke and his team are the best I have ever worked with, and therefore come with my full support and highest recommendation.
