My pragmatic approach to design serves my clients and their markets, instead of my ego (I hope). It's something designers only learn through experience.
Copyright
An important distinction is that my designs belong to my clients – they paid for it, after all. Many design studios like to believe they still own the artwor , and so when they lose a client, they often refuse to hand over the original files, or sometimes give only low resolution files.
Once a job is done, I send my clients the original files.

Please note that Konrad does not do web design anymore.
My clients
My clients are typically small businesses, although I've had large corporations as clients before - usually for a regional division.
I understand what it means to start from scratch, so I advise some clients on cheaper options when they don't yet have the ideal budget, even if it means I don't get any work from them - I've been there myself.
I'm not superhuman yet. While all of the services mentioned on the buttons above are done in-house, other services are outsourced to trusted service providers when needed. Clients are always welcome to use their own providers.
Business cards and letterheads as stand-alone services
While my rates are fair, I openly discuss cheaper options with prospective clients who have small budgets.
For instance, as a rule of thumb I don't design business cards as a stand-alone service, unless the client is prepared to pay R1 000+ excl. printing, for something special.
I don't compete with instant card shops like Quickprint. They're ideal for super fast, dirt cheap business cards and they'd probably design and print 500 cards for you for only R500.
At my home in Eversdal (in Durbanville), Cape Town, but I prefer meeting my clients online
Although my studio moved away from the Southern Suburbs, I still serve clients everywhere, from Cape Town to Johannesburg to Durban to Pretoria. En ek is Afrikaans, so moenie worry oor die taal nie.
Let's see what I can do you for your business ;-)
