Graphic Design by Cat Quinney | Logo, print, digital, web

I'm Cat Quinney, Graphic Designer

offering graphic design for print, branding and web

What matters to me is using graphic design to make a difference to business and message impact. I develop the look and feel that communicates key values and sing out key messages. What’s more, during eighteen years of experience, I’ve gained an eye for detail.
Whether you're a small to medium business or marketing agency, I can work with you. That’s because I offer logo design and branding, flyers, posters, business cards and info-graphics. Digitally I offer social media and front-end web design plus more. No day is the same!
As I value collaboration, I work with you and ask questions to define your visual direction. I go through the detail with an eye on the big picture. This approach brings about great design tailored to your brief or brand.
Going back to my graduate days, I won a 1st prize D&AD (Design and Art Directors) Global Student Award. Later I was Art Director for IDFX Interior Design magazine. I’ve an interest in lifelong learning so I’m adaptable with style. Check out my graphic design portfolio and ask me how I can support your business goals.

Experience

During 2012 I started doing the freelancing thing, juggling clients and marketing agencies.

2017 - present | City of London Corp'

2016 - present | Trees for Cities

2017 - 2021 | KnowledgePoint

2012 - 2017 | Vital Marketing

2008 - 2012 | Progressive Media

I collaborated with Marketing to help achieve the strategy and work plan whilst taking direction from my Design Lead. I learned to source and adjust photography suited to varied sectors. Later I was responsible for monthly magazines such as idfx for interior design and restaurant trade title Eat Out. Tending to organise and prioritise well, I pressed through work quicker than expected within deadlines. My role meant liaising with printers to roll on artwork to production. Design work also included logos, brochures, interactive PDFs, infographics and event roller banners, all with attention-grabbing impact. I’m proud I initiated time-saving work processes, for instance standardising document style sheets, design templates and colour swatch files.
