What I can design for you
Four things, done deeply: identities, covers, packaging, and the print production that makes them real.
Brand identity & logo design
A logo is a signature; an identity is a system. You get both: built on a clear idea and delivered so your business can actually use them.
What it includes
- Discovery brief and competitor snapshot
- Logo design with variations (primary, compact, one-color)
- Color palette and typography selection
- Basic brand guidelines document
Typical deliverables
- Vector source files (AI, CDR, SVG, EPS, PDF)
- Print-ready and web-ready exports
- Guidelines PDF with usage rules
Process
- Brief: a short call or questionnaire about your business and goals
- Concepts: 2-3 distinct directions with reasoning
- Refinement: the chosen direction, polished through revision rounds
- Delivery: all formats, guidelines and a handover walk-through
Example projects
Book & publication cover design
Covers that sell the story from the shelf, typography-first design with print-safe color, delivered with spine and back included, not as an afterthought.
What it includes
- Front cover, spine and back cover design
- Series/edition systems that stay recognizable
- Typographic composition and artwork direction
- Spine-width calculation per page count and paper
Typical deliverables
- Print-ready PDF/X with bleed and marks
- Layered source files
- Web and marketing exports (3D mockup, social formats)
Process
- Brief: manuscript synopsis, audience, format and print specs
- Concepts: 2-3 cover directions
- Refinement: the chosen cover, tested at thumbnail and shelf size
- Prepress: final files coordinated directly with your printer
Example projects
Packaging design
Labels and packaging that survive the journey from screen mockup to shelf, designed on the dieline from day one, so nothing shifts in production.
What it includes
- Label and packaging design on the real dieline
- Product-line systems that scale across variants
- Mandatory-information layout (regulatory text, barcodes)
- Foil, emboss and varnish planning with the printer
Typical deliverables
- Production-ready artwork with separations
Process
- Brief: product, shelf context and technical constraints
- Production: files, tolerances and press coordination
Example projects
Print production & prepress
Two decades of prepress: color management, imposition, file repair and press checks. What you approve on screen is what comes off the machine.
What it includes
- Print-ready file preparation and verification
- Color management (CMYK conversion, spot colors, profiles)
- Fixing third-party files that printers reject
- Catalogue and brochure layout with prepress built in
Typical deliverables
- Verified PDF/X files matched to the print process
- Preflight report of what was corrected
- Direct coordination with your print shop
Process
- Audit: your files checked against the printer’s specs
- Correction: bleed, resolution, color and font issues fixed
- Proof: soft proof or press proof, as the job requires
- Print: files delivered, run supervised when needed
Website design & build
A website that presents your business as clearly as your print work does: easy to read, fast and easy to find. Design, build, domain and hosting, delivered as one job.
What it includes
- Company presentation sites, portfolios and small online shops
- Design that matches your brand identity and print materials
- Layouts that work on phones, tablets and desktops
- Search basics built in: fast pages, clear structure, ready for Google
Typical deliverables
- A finished website, live on your own domain
- Domain registration and hosting setup
- Maintenance and updates after launch
Process
- Brief: what the site must do, who it is for and what content exists
- Design: page layouts approved before anything is built
- Build: the site built and tested on phone and desktop
- Launch: domain, hosting and secure https set up, the site goes live
Example projects
Frequently asked questions
- How much does a logo design cost?
- Every project gets a fixed quote after a short brief, no hourly surprises. The price depends on scope: a logo alone costs less than a full identity with guidelines. Send a couple of sentences about your business and you will have a concrete number within two working days.
- How long does a brand identity project take?
- Two to four weeks for most identities, from brief to final files. A logo-only project is usually faster; a full system with guidelines and stationery takes the upper end. Book covers and packaging depend on print deadlines and are scheduled around them.
- Do you prepare files for print?
- Yes: print preparation is the studio’s core strength, not an add-on. Every design leaves the studio print-ready: correct color profiles, bleed, resolution and formats agreed with your specific printer. I also prepare or repair files designed by others.
- Do you also build websites?
- Yes: design, build, domain registration, hosting setup and maintenance, as one job. Typical projects are company presentation sites, portfolios and small online shops. Like every other service, a website gets a fixed quote after a short brief.
- What do you need from me to start?
- Three things: what your business does, who your customers are, and where the design will be used. Everything else helps (existing materials, examples you like or dislike, technical specs) but can be gathered along the way.
- How many revision rounds are included?
- Two structured revision rounds are included in every quote, and in practice they are almost always enough because the concept phase catches direction problems early. Additional rounds are possible and priced in advance, never sprung on you.
- Which file formats do I receive?
- All of them that matter: vector sources (AI, CDR, SVG, EPS), print-ready PDF/X, and web-ready PNG and SVG exports. You own the final artwork and receive all working/final files.
- Where are you based, and do you work with local clients?
- I work from Bor, Serbia, with clients in Bor, Zaječar, Negotin, Majdanpek, Kladovo, Knjaževac, Niš, Paraćin, Jagodina and Svilajnac. In and around Bor we can meet in person, and everything else, from the brief to the final files, also works online, so distance is never an obstacle.
- Do you work with international clients?
- Yes: the studio works remotely with clients across Europe and beyond, in English or Serbian. Files, proofs and calls all happen online, and print coordination works with your local printer or with trusted shops in Serbia.
- Can you take over an existing design and get it ready for print?
- Yes, and it happens often. If your designer delivered artwork the printer rejects, whether it is the wrong color mode, missing bleed or low-resolution images, I repair the files, verify them against the press specs and stand by the result.
