06 Projects
Brand designer and founder of Nine3Designs. An independent creative studio in Sheffield, South Yorkshire. I take projects from the very first brief and creative concept through to finished artwork and delivery, combining strong visual design with practical commercial thinking.
Running my own studio has given me hands-on experience across the full creative process: understanding what a business actually needs, developing concepts, presenting and refining the work, and getting everything production-ready. That mix of creative and commercial experience means I understand the brief & the practical realities behind it, so projects land on time, on budget and with clear communication throughout.
Understanding objectives, audience and practicalities.
Developing and presenting purposeful creative.
Feedback, revisions and clear rationale at every step.
Production-ready artwork, print coordination and launch.
A timeless luxury identity for a sophisticated skincare brand.
Sophisticated skincare branding created for Aurélia — The Ritual Edit. Elegant typography, warm neutrals and refined supporting graphics come together to create a timeless, luxury identity. Understated details and a soft, calm palette give the brand a quiet premium aesthetic. One that feels considered, effortless and easy to build on across product, packaging and social.

An editorial beauty brand with a softer, more luxurious feel.
The Beauty Bothy wanted to step away from the usual beauty-salon look. The identity pairs elegant typography with deep navy and warm champagne, brought together by a delicate dandelion-inspired graphic that adds movement and lightness. Polished but never cold, with the softness running through everything from price lists to social.

A fresh coastal identity, drawn straight from the sea.
A coastal identity built on bold typography, playful details and a calm ocean palette of deep teal, aqua and soft neutrals alongside imagery pulled from the sea. Adventurous but relaxed, made for the outdoors without losing its polish. Custom typographic details and supporting graphics give the identity personality, while keeping the overall look clean and contemporary.

Scandinavian-inspired branding with a strong sense of place.
For Nordkust Coffee we leaned into coastal Nordic influences, strong type, a restrained palette and graphic details that carry the feel across everything from bags to shop signage. The result is a coffee brand with a real sense of place: calm and confident, and easy to spot on a shelf.

A bold, welcoming identity for a local coffee shop with personality.
A full branding project covering identity design through to signage and product mockups. At the centre sits a bold, condensed serif wordmark, E SQUARED, with a coffee-bean detail worked into the O, a hand-drawn cup icon and an “EST. 2026” subline for a grounded, established feel despite being a new opening. A circular “COFFEE CORNER” ring wraps the mark, built to work on round signage as well as cup stickers and packaging.

A brand refresh and full website rebuild, from Canva hold-together to a presence Sara is proud of.
Sara came to Nine3Designs after a run of disappointing experiences with previous designers. Her website was a basic Canva build that no longer reflected the professionalism of her role, and she had no way to access or manage her own domain. We began with the foundations: her logo rebuilt as a clean, scalable version, a considered colour palette in place of the muted greys, and social graphics for a consistent look. Then the biggest step, a complete website rebuild, fully under her control and consistent with her wider branding.
