Overview
Hi, I'm Steve, an award-winning graphic designer specialising in book cover and editorial design. I have over 12 years experience working with leading publishers and design studios in the UK and Ireland. My work is contemporary, eye-catching and conceptually-driven; and is underpinned by an in-depth knowledge of typography, expertise in illustration and extensive experience of production processes.
I love to collaborate closely with authors, publishers and artists, and believe that great design comes from a deep understanding of the content of a book, coupled with a strong concept and beautiful execution. I can apply my skills to a diverse range of genres, from fiction to non-fiction and illustrated titles. I'm passionate about books and the art of storytelling, and would love to help you bring your project to life. Please feel free to get in touch with any questions or ideas.
