🎨 Branding & Print Design
Branding that gives your business a clear, confident, and recognisable identity.
What I do
Your brand is more than just a logo — it’s the visual language that helps people recognise, trust, and remember your business.
At D-S-Design Studio, I create distinctive, cohesive branding and graphic design for small businesses across Shaftesbury, Dorset, and beyond. Whether you’re launching something new or refreshing an existing identity, I design visuals that feel confident, consistent, and professional — across both digital and print.
Every branding project is completely bespoke and built around your goals, values, and audience, giving you a visual identity that works everywhere your business shows up.
What’s included
- Custom logo design with full ownership of final files
- Defined colour palette and font pairings for consistency
- Mini or full brand style guide for digital and print use
- Print-ready artwork (business cards, flyers, posters, brochures)
- Graphic design for social media, menus, signage, or packaging
- Optional brand refresh or rebrand consultation
Benefits
- A clear, recognisable identity that strengthens your business
- Consistency across print, web, and social media
- Professional visuals that build trust and credibility
- Flexible assets you can reuse across campaigns and promotions
- Local collaboration with a Shaftesbury-based design studio

FAQ
How long does a branding project take?
Most branding projects take between 2–4 weeks, depending on the scope and feedback timelines. Larger identity projects may take longer, but clear milestones are agreed from the start.
Will I own my logo and branding files?
Yes. Once full payment is complete, you receive full ownership of all final logo and branding files, including formats suitable for web, print, and social media.
Can you work with my existing logo or branding?
Absolutely. If you already have branding in place, I can refine, modernise, or expand it into a more cohesive identity without starting from scratch.
Do you offer print and digital design together?
Yes — branding is designed to work across everything. From business cards and signage to social media graphics and website assets, I ensure your brand looks consistent everywhere.
