Branding and design
A designer's core talents
Nothing delights a designer more than giving a new business its spanking new outfit prior to a world debut. Especially when the brand and launch includes brochures, ads, social media banners, packaging and vehicle livery.
Web design and development
Your business shop window
While many small businesses favour social platforms over a website for marketing purposes, an outdated site – or no site at all – is still a red flag to many potential customers. Make sure you can measure up to your opposition.
Illustrations and animations
Explanations and instructions
Videos, animations, and explainer graphics can better showcase a concept than words alone. Don't let a lack of understanding keep customers from your door. And once sold, many products require an installation or instruction manual.
Video production
Corporate, sales or social videos
Most businesses have a plethora of product or service videos shot on a smartphone. Rather than lying dormant in the cloud, why not turn them into engaging corporate or sales videos?

Client Feedback
It has been a pleasure having you as our website and company profile designer over the past 20-plus years. We have enjoyed your ideas to update our website and company profiles, adding new projects once completed and new personnel.
Gary’s design work is modern, visually striking, and perfectly aligned with the brand. Every detail, from the logo to the colour scheme, is thoughtfully crafted and executed. Importantly, it has been consistent across all products.
As a client we’ve found Gary easy to engage with and more importantly he has always had a good understanding of our needs and objectives and delivered on the brief.
A few questions answered
Where are you based?
I live in Kapiti, and my client base is primarily between Levin and Wellington. However, I do have this handy little tool called the Internet, and occasionally have clients in Australia, the USA and the UK.
What do you do?
Pretty much anything design-based: print, web, video, packaging, sign design, or words. But if I feel something might be beyond my capabilities, I have a broad selection of compatible professionals to subcontract to. I will still be your project manager – your one-stop contact.
Are you expensive?
I hope not. I’m not ‘Facebook ad $5 website’ cheap, but to put things in perspective, my hourly rate is currently lower than it was in 2010. If cost is a factor, I can work to a budget, or we can discuss a rolling delivery over a coffee.
