In today’s digital landscape, it’s essential for your brand to stand out on screen. I specialise in digital design that incorporates unique patterns and layered textures to add depth and authenticity to your online presence.

Your brand is the essence of your business, and I offer comprehensive branding services to define and elevate it. By weaving in textures and patterns, I create visual identities that are both distinctive and cohesive, giving your brand personality and impact.
I offer print design services that bring your brand to life! Using carefully curated textures and patterns, I offer business cards, brochures, and packaging. These tactile elements can help build a lasting impression of your brand.
Meet The Designer
Hello I’m Cat, the designer and founder of Stephenson Design. Welcome to my website, I hope you find everything you need here.
A little bit about me... I live Hertfordshire with my partner and two small children. Before becoming a Graphic Designer I worked as a buyer for over 10 years! working for brands such as Topman and Marks & Spencer. I am also trained in Textile design, and LOVE pattern and texture which heavily influence my work.
The Process
Discover
Once you have looked through the service page and chosen which package suits your needs, please contact me via the enquiry form page. I will then be in touch within 48hrs to arrange a free discovery call. This call is an opportunity for you to tell me everything about your business and discuss the design process in more detail. After the call I will send you a comprehensive project proposal which will include your deliverables and final quote.
If you are happy with the proposal I will send you a contract and invoice and once signed the design process can begin!
Design
I will start by sending you a client strategy questionnaire along with a link for a collaberative pinterest moodboard. Once these are completed I will arrange a strategy call. This will help advise me on your brand strategy and creative direction which will inform the new look and feel of your brand. The creative direction will include 2 colour palettes and mood boards for you to chose from before moving on to the brand design phase.
Once the strategy for your brand is finalised, I create a complete and cohesive brand identity. This includes your primary logo, secondary logos, brand marks, patterns, colour palette, typography, and image direction. You’ll also receive mock-ups to help you visualise your brand in real-world applications. Two rounds of revisions are included to ensure everything aligns perfectly with your vision.
Deliver
Once the brand presentation has been signed off by you, I will send over a goodbye packet which will include everything you need to release your new branding into the wild!.
The goodbye packet will include all your final files in an organised folder along with any extra resources you may need.
