You're not just hiring a designer.
You're hiring a strategic partner.
I transform complex challenges into clear, compelling visual stories that drive results. Strategy first. Aesthetics always.
Who I Am
I'm Archie Durrant, a Strategic Communication Designer based in Hampshire. For me, design isn't just about making things beautiful - it's about making them work.
With over 4 years shaping brand identities, digital experiences, and editorial designs, I've learned that the best design happens at the intersection of strategic thinking and visual craft.
I don't just take briefs - I challenge them, refine them, and build solutions that go beyond what you thought was possible. Every project is an opportunity to create something that connects, converts, and leaves a lasting impact.
What Drives My Work
Strategy-Led Thinking
Every visual decision I make is rooted in strategy. I don't design for the sake of design - I create solutions that solve real business problems and connect with real people.
True Collaboration
You know your business. I know design. Together, we'll build something neither of us could have created alone. I listen, challenge, and refine until we get it right.
Relentless Clarity
Great design cuts through the noise. I strip away complexity to reveal the essential message, ensuring your audience understands, remembers, and acts.
A Proven Process
No guesswork. No surprises. Just a clear, collaborative path from brief to brilliance.
Discovery
We dive deep into your goals, audience, and challenges. I ask the hard questions to ensure every design decision is grounded in strategy, not guesswork.
Strategy & Concepts
I develop strategic directions and visual concepts that align with your brand and resonate with your audience. You'll see options, backed by rationale.
Design & Refinement
We refine the chosen direction together. Your feedback shapes the work, and I polish every detail until it's perfect - functionally and aesthetically.
Delivery & Support
You receive production-ready assets, comprehensive guidelines, and ongoing support. Everything you need to launch with confidence.
Let's Create Something
Extraordinary
Have a project in mind? I'd love to hear about it and explore how we can work together.
