Hi, I'm Samuel. Thanks for visiting my profile.
I help businesses by:
- Creating a visual identity that is built around their goals and audience
- Designing UI/UX for websites and apps that are creative but clear
- Turning these design into functioning and user-friendly websites
I love to design because I'm all about solving problems in creative ways. Growing up I was always sketching ideas for new football kits, cars, phones, pretty much anything I could think of. I feel the same way about my work today.
The clients that know who they are and stand by it are my favourite to work with. They make for truly unique brand identities and exciting design projects.
That's a bit about me and what I do. If you have an exciting branding or web project in mind then I'd be happy to discuss it with you.

They needed a visual style and matching packaging to help promote their new product line. I was commissioned to design a full set of logos and a brand colour for the company itself. Then design packaging based upon a selection of brand dinosaur illustrations. The key elements of the design look are: -Fun -Playf
- Massey Accounting CompanyA local, independent accounting business. Their shift to include more digital media meant they needed a full brand update and new website so they can improve on their online presence. A corporate, formal, but energetic style was chosen. The branding had to show a decent level of seriousness given the nature of their business but this didn’t mean it had to be dull. Vibrant orange and 3D drawings were used to add a playful and unique edge.
- ACE Property ServicesBrand Identity Design for a Vancouver-based cleaning company. With ACE growing in size very quickly over recent years, especially in scale of their clients, their existing branding didn't match their status. They needed a brand identity that shows they belong amongst those larger companies in Vancouver. A modern, clean and corporate brand identity that still held their original company values. The new identity upholds their standards of professionalism and traditional methods while reflecting
