If you are looking for a freelance graphic artist or graphic designer, we can plan your needs as a single job or complementary deliveries. My experience as a graphic designer and art director helps keep logos, packaging, catalogs and digital images in a common visual language.
I am a graduate of Marmara University, Faculty of Fine Arts, Graphic Design. Most of my career was spent as an art director in advertising agencies; Today, I do the same job directly, without agency layers.
I design logos, corporate identities, catalogs, brochures, packaging and presentations for businesses looking for freelance graphic designer support. By applying brand rules together in printed and digital files, I ensure that the works carry the same visual language.
I am based in Istanbul; I work face to face when coordination with the printing house is required for printing jobs, and remotely for other jobs.

- Number of pages, publication frequency and ready-made content for magazine and periodical designs; For vehicle wrapping designs, the vehicle model and the dimensions of the applicator are the starting information. The design file, print and physical application are not delivered the same.

Frequently asked questions
How many revision rights are there?
The revision tour is determined in writing at the beginning of the work and is included in the proposal. Corrections after the concept is selected are included in these rounds; If the direction changes completely, this will be a new concept study and will be discussed separately.
Do you provide source files?
Vector source files are delivered for logo and corporate identity works — your brand must be yours. In other jobs, source file sharing varies depending on the scope and is clearly written in the proposal.
How is the print-ready file delivered?
With the correct size, color profile and bleed margins, in a format that the printing house can use directly. I make corrections based on technical feedback from the printing house.
Do you do the printing?
I do not provide printing services; I am ready for design and printing. The choice of printing house and printing is yours, and if necessary, I provide technical support in the process.
I'm looking for a graphic designer; What should I send in the first message?
Share the purpose of the work, the medium in which it will be used, the approximate delivery list and the target date. Add logo, text and photos as they are ready. Thus, in a freelance graphic design proposal, preparation, main design and adaptations are evaluated separately.
Do I have to get monthly graphic designer support?
No. A single logo, catalog or campaign set can be handled on a project basis. If there is a regular need, continuous support is discussed through the work list and calendar; Monthly work is not a prerequisite for a one-time job.
