Insight meets innovation
I'm Rachael Ward, a versatile digital designer who will help you make your mark on the digital landscape. I design cross media campaigns and websites that build trust and authority and keep audiences engaged.
Not your typical designer, my career began with a focus on verbal communication, providing translation, proofreading, and copyediting services. This foundation uniquely positions me to help you articulate your brand's message effectively.
At the heart of my approach lies a meticulous commitment to detail. Stemming from my background in proofreading, I bring a level of precision to your project to make sure every pixel and word align seamlessly. This ensures your brand's visual and verbal identity remains consistently compelling.
Having worked across a range of design disciplines, from print to events to digital, my roots are diverse, but my focus is clear – providing you with a holistic perspective on design, my broad expertise allows me to connect the dots for a comprehensive visual strategy.
An innate curiosity, fuels my constant pursuit of knowledge and strategy. In every pixel and every creative choice that I make, there's intent. This commitment and strategic approach to design results in a strong brand foundation built on values and purpose, setting you apart in the marketplace.

Design project timelines vary depending on the scope and complexity of the project. Let's chat through your project so I can provide you with an indication of how long it will take. A detailed timeline will also be provided once an initial scoping call has taken place.
My designs are always founded in strategy, so my process always starts out by understanding your goals and requirements and researching your audience and competition. Once I have a good understanding of the background, I use that information to begin creating initial concepts. I will gather feedback and refine the designs as required. That said, each project is different and may require a more tailored approach which would be discussed and agreed at the start of the process.
The cost of my services depends on the scope of your project. My pricing is reflective of both the time and effort it will take me to find a design solution that will deliver and of the value that it will bring your business. Before commencement of any work, I will always provide you with a detailed quote based on your specific requirements.
Yes, I always offer at least one round of revisions in my quotes to ensure that the final design meets your expectations. By conducting a thorough research and exploration phase, I aim to deliver design concepts that will require minimal changes. However, I do take a collaborative approach to my work and will work closely with you to incorporate your feedback and make necessary adjustments to ensure you are happy with the final product.
Yes, I provide ongoing design support to my clients. Whether you require assistance with website maintenance and updates, or additional marketing collateral, I am here to help.
