Not sure where to start with your design needs?
Whether it's capturing your new business' personality through a logo and visual identity, or communicating your organisation's achievements in a stylish annual report, I'll work with you to create th vision and deliver it for you with intention and creativity.
Creative commissions and other fun stuff
Looking for something a bit more unusual or quirky: celebration stationery, an anniversary mug, or even a bespoke upcycled chair? You're in the right place.
I love designing stuff for fun, upcycling furniture, making things, cutting things up, scribbling and experimenting, to create something out of the ordinary.
What people say about working with me
Gráinne has an uncanny ability to organise other people's thoughts.
I regularly spewed out a load of nonsense to her but she was able to sort through multiple people's thinking and ideas and bring them to a tangible reality.
This is a rare and valuable skill.

Gráinne was a pleasure to work with. She led with an easy communication and efficient management style which helped ensure everything ran smoothly. She captured sensitive beneficiary stories with care which resulted in some wonderful content that was used for a national campaign.
I would highly recommend Gráinne’s services.

I would commission Gráinne again in a heartbeat.
She has an exceptional ability to understand the needs of different audiences and instinctively knows how to create content that is clear, engaging and genuinely useful.
She consistently delivers work of the highest quality and brings fresh ideas that make a real difference.
