Logo Designer & Design Educator
My name is James Barnard. I’m a logo designer and a design educator. I specialise in designing logos and visual identities with meaning.
As a former designer for the publishing industry in the UK, I have more than 15 years of experience in the world of graphic design.
My aim is to pass on my wide variety of skills to the next generation of designers through my social platforms.
Logo design with love
Are you proud of your logo? After all, as a business owner, you’re the one who is going to see it every day. This symbol, that represents the very nature or your business will often be the first impression people have of you. It’s designed to inspire trust. It should tell your story. And it should be unique to you.
I don’t believe in cookie-cutter solutions. I will separate you from the competition. And as a designer with more than 15 years of experience, you can rely on a personalised, dedicated service with you at its centre. I’ll get to know you, inside and out. I’ll ask you questions about your brand and drill your company down to its bare essentials. All before even picking up a pencil.
