A GRAPHIC DESIGNER WHO STRIVES FOR PIXEL PERFECTION
Hi there! I’m Adam, an award-winning senior designer based in the leafy Cotswold town of Cheltenham. With over 13 years’ experience delivering design solutions for established brands and businesses across a range of industries, I’m proud to share a selection of my work below.
UI/UX CASE STUDY
My work is guided by the belief that strong design can create meaningful, positive impact
YOU GUESSED IT,
CREATIVE DESIGN
BRAND
I’ve designed for both nationally and globally recognised brands and organisations, such as the Department for Education, HP, Howden Insurance and Timberland Pro as well as startup businesses, for which I developed logos and comprehensive brand guideline documents.
DIGITAL
I aim to create content that clicks by bringing ideas to life in ways that work seamlessly online. Whether it’s UI/UX design, social media campaigns or email design, I approach every project with a digital-first mindset. I’m always thinking about how users interact with content, how information flows and how design can guide behaviour.
From promotional literature and Point-Of-Sale displays to exhibition collateral, large-format print, packaging and vehicle graphics, I create bold campaign materials and impactful standalone pieces designed to engage audiences and reinforce a brand’s identity.
MOTION
With 5 years of professional motion graphics experience, I breathe life into projects by creating visuals that dance across your screen. I mainly use Adobe After Effects for animation, with some work in Premiere Pro for video editing.
TOOLS
I come fully equipped with old school tools as well as access to the latest design software to turn those rough visuals into pixel perfection.

MY JOURNEY, SO FAR
REWIND
Around 20 years ago, I discovered my passion for graphic design during a school D&T project. While others focused on functionality and production, I was drawn to the visual side; shaping layouts, choosing imagery, refining typography and creating a project identity. I found real satisfaction in making something not just functional, but visually compelling. This project sparked my interest in design and confirmed that visual communication was where my creativity and strengths naturally aligned.
