I'm Graham Walker – creative director, branding consultant, graphic designer, art director, problem-solver, creative thinker, hard grafter, award-winner.Brilliant ideas, problem-solving and craftsmanship – that's what I'm all about. Each and every project I am involved in receives the same high level of thinking, care and attention to detail – whether it's the development of a new brand, a company rebrand, website, an integrated creative advertising campaign or a simple flyer.I have over 16 years experience working for clients in various sectors, across many areas of creative communication – spanning traditional print design to design for ever-evolving digital platforms. I've worked at Senior and Director level, handling projects, leading teams of creatives and managing the creative process. I currently head up my own branding and creative studio 'Design by Gray' based in Preston, Lancashire.I prefer to work with clients rather than for them, which means taking a deep interest in who they are and what they do and putting myself in the shoes of their audience. It's this level of understanding that leads to intelligent, exciting and successful creative solutions of which we can both be proud. My work has received recognition in the form of well-respected industry awards from the Institute of Practitioners of Advertising (IPA), Fresh and the DBA Design Effectiveness Awards – projects awarded for delivering outstanding results.Some of the main areas I love to work in include: Brand Identity, Logo Design, Advertising, Social Marketing, Packaging Design, Company/Product Naming, Websites, Direct Mail, Brochures, Environmental Graphics, Copywriting.Clients I've worked with include: NHS, The Environment Agency, TfGM, Metrolink, Brindle Distillery, Chester Zoo, Stonyhurst College, Manchester Royal Exchange Theatre, Wales Millennium Centre, Imperial War Museum North, Emap, Amec, Charlton Athletic, Royal Borough of Greenwich, Language Studies International, League Football Education, Bruntwood, Pyramid & Parr Hall.
