Design & i is a freelance graphic design and illustration studio based in Ashbourne, Derbyshire.

I’ve worked as a creative professional since 2004, collaborating with independent businesses, arts organisations, record labels, and larger companies across Ashbourne, Derby, and the Midlands. My work blends strong visual identity with creative originality — whether it’s developing a new brand, producing striking print materials, or crafting bespoke illustrations. I offer a personal, high-quality design service that’s ideal for small businesses, community organisations, and creative professionals. Over the years, I’ve designed brand identities for local businesses like X Runner, ATL, and Wilsons Pharmacy, and created communications for larger organisations including the NHS. I’ve produced album artwork for artists including LAU, The Little Unsaid, and Joan as Police Woman, and my work has appeared in the Best of British Illustration. I’ve also been a finalist in the RAR (Recommended Agency Register) Awards multiple times.

Services

I focus on high-quality graphic design and illustration projects — always created by me, and tailored to the needs of each client.
I regularly work on:
Logo design and brand identities
Flyers, posters, and print materials
Booklets, brochures, and zines
Illustration for editorial, campaigns, and packaging
Social media graphics and digital assets
Design for events, exhibitions, and community projects
My work combines technical skill with visual storytelling — blending influences from vintage, Swiss, and alternative design into something distinctive and purposeful.
Based in Ashbourne, Working Across Derbyshire

I work with clients across Ashbourne, Derby, and the surrounding areas, as well as remotely throughout the UK. I’m currently focused on short-term and one-off design commissions — perfect for small businesses, arts projects, and individuals looking for professional design without long lead times or agency pricing.
