Hey! I'm Luke - I've been in the design space for over ten years, that's like seventy dog years. I believe good design starts with empathy, authenticity and passion.

Branding & Art Direction

Ah man, you need a new brand identity? That's wild, wish I knew someone who could help design ... Oh wait!

A little bit about me.

Over 10 years of experience designing and strategizing with various clients, agencies and brands has made me into a versatile designer, with experience ranging from websites and apps to marketing campaigns and brand identities. I love all forms of creativity and expression, which is why I do what I do.

I have had the pleasure of working with huge South African brands such as Spur Group and PEP as well as smaller ones still finding their footing. Big or small, my philosphy is the same. Empathy and perspective. Connecting with an audience by finding a visual language they want to engage with is one of the most thrilling feelings as a designer, a feeling I will forever be chasing.
