Phil Dean is a freelance Graphic & Web Design from

I design stuff for print and web. Lots of stuff.

Before I began working for myself, I worked in a number of successful small to medium-sized businesses across several countries, and in a variety of different roles. I’ve worked in a huge range of industries including engineering, manufacturing, retail, finance, IT, business analysis, hospitality, transport, music, and film.

This wide experience has given me a great understanding of almost every aspect of running a business, and this helps me to quickly understand my clients' needs and how to help them.

About half of my design work has been in the engineering field. My understanding of hydraulics, hose & fittings, bearings, power transmission, gear cutting, and more has been a great help in creating product-driven websites and catalogues for companies in these industries. I am good at making complex stuff look simple.

I try and keep my design work simple, bold, and clear. When your customer visits your website, picks up your catalogue, or opens your email newsletter, they want to find information quickly and easily, and creating that experience is my driving force when designing.

I also ensure I communicate with my clients every step of the way – in my experience, this is the single most important factor in getting a great result!

I use Adobe Indesign, Photoshop, and Illustrator for my graphic design work, and for my web design, I predominantly use the Wordpress platform. As well as the aesthetic look of your website, I can help you with the back end tasks - such as setting up your domain and emails, updating and maintaining your platform and plugins, ensuring your security is up to scratch and much more.
