Graphic Design

Graphic Design is the integration of words and images to solve a problem, tell a story, or create an experience. I will design a creative solution or develop a campaign for your particular problem or service. We will follow my creative strategy:

Research

The first stage is a handshake. The handshake is a significant moment to establish a solid, trustworthy relationship with my clients. It is the opportunity to identify the problem, gather the information, observe the environment, and ask the important questions: "Who?", "What?", "When?", "Where?", "Why?", and "How?".

Brainstorm

The second stage is thinking about the idea to construct a story. A brainstorming web is a fundamental process to conceptualize from the main idea and put the pieces together. Those pieces are the information that will construct the building blocks of targeting the problem, consider the approaches, and determine the solution.

Strategy

The third stage is designing the plan of action. It is the integration of words and images to solve the problem, tell the story, stamp an impression, or create an experience. It is my responsibility to develop the design process and convey the message across the audience successfully.

Review

The fourth stage is evaluating the design. I don't settle with a design because I believe that there is room for improvement. So, it's important to review the design through constructive criticism.

Execute

Lastly, it's time to implement the solution. The design will represent my client and illustrate their story to provide a powerful message or an unforgettable experience.
