FOUNDER + CREATIVE DIRECTOR

Hi! I'm Simon :)

Hi, I'm Simon! I help founders and small organisations who are doing something worthwhile for the world bring their ideas to life - with bold, beautiful design and modern tech.

I spent the last decade single-handedly leading design in a social impact organisation and a deep tech startup. From brand identity and interface design, all the way through to print and video, I've got extensive experience across every design surface - and, crucially, the strategic sense to bind it all together.

Frequently asked questions

How long do things take?

Most often I can start planning and scoping a project within a week. Identities typically take a month or so. Simple websites can be built in a week, complex ones anywhere from 3 weeks to 2 months. Other projects can be between a couple of days and a month or so. There are a lot of factors involved in timelines, of course, but I will always make sure you get a phased plan with clear milestones up front so you can plan your work accordingly.

How do you handle revisions?

Once we've scoped a direction, small revisions are more or less unlimited and included in the price. If you want to change direction completely (it happens!) there is a separate fee - generally 50% of the original base fee.

How does payment work?

A 50% deposit to start, the balance on delivery. Invoices in EUR. Retainer clients are billed monthly, in advance.

Do you deploy the website too?

Yep! I'll take your website all the way from design to final live product. I can use more or less any tech stack you like, including Webflow, although I generally use React + Next.js and host on Cloudflare. Various CMS systems - Decap, Prismic, etc. - are also no problem. Infrastructure costs are not included in my pricing, although depending on your bandwidth needs, hosting small sites is often essentially free.

Source code, infrastructure and credentials are yours from day one; I'm not in the business of gatekeeping code.

Negotiable pricing

My prices are fairly calibrated to my experience, the work involved, and the value you receive. But I don't want price to be a barrier to working with me - not if what you're doing is worthwhile.

One of the long-term goals of this studio is to provide top-tier design to people and organisations who otherwise wouldn't be able to afford it. So provided I have the time and financial capacity, I'll be happy to figure out a custom arrangement that works for you. If that sounds like your situation, get in touch and let's talk about it honestly.

The best way to start is with a chat.

Build a bridge between worlds.

The best things in life are when worlds collide: physical + digital, local + global, art + science. I'm holistic in my approach, always trying to connect together new tech and ideas for cohesive, considered experiences.

Take the longer view.

I work best as a long-term design partner - one who plans in terms of years, not just next quarters. I envision compelling, sustainable futures for projects, and then I stick around to make them happen end to end.

Seek signs and heed lessons.

Design should be data-driven and adaptable. My approach is led by audience research, impact measurement, and more than a decade of experience. My opinions change when the facts change - as do my plans.

Honesty

Speak plainly and
truthfully.

Truthtelling is at an all-time premium in a world so full of political spin and now AI sycophancy. You can rely on me to communicate transparently and candidly: from price to scope to potential problems.

Integrity

Wield influence with care.

Far too often, design is used to manipulate, rather than to uplift or inform or guide. I want to build experiences that keep users' welfare at their centre, rewarding attention rather than simply extracting it.

Solidarity

Befriend strange, wise and weak.

I want to help the outsiders: small founders, mission-led orgs, creatives, the vulnerable - not prettify corporate power. I strive to support local and global community, with an accessible and intersectional approach.

Dream a joyful future.

Users, people - all living beings - are the whole point of design. And I believe a better future for everyone is worth creating and fighting for. So, every project should leave the world a little more just, kind, and navigable.

Imagination

Let's talk about your project.

I like to keep things casual. Give me some basic info on your project, and then let's discuss it over text or on a call.

There's no commitment, and no hidden sales pitches here. It will just be an honest chat to see if I can help. And if I can't, I can certainly point you in the right direction.
