My Personal Mission

My goal with all clients is to create a dynamic branding package to showcase their unique passions. Whether designing from an existing brand, or starting an identity from scratch, I'll tailor a branding package to fit your needs. Creating a memorable logo, designing compelling targeted communications, or programing a stylized HTML/CSS website to showcase your ideas the presentation of your message is important.

David A Sokolik - Graphic Design
Visual. Original. Creative.

Visual - It is important to your businesses identity to design the right imagery that matches your businesses objectives. The visuals created to attract the correct target market will differ depending on your markets age, psychological motivations and other driving factors. Creating the visuals that will encase your businesses printed and web communications is more than designing a pretty picture; targeted visuals are a motivating tool, which are strategically designed to pull in the people you want to get in touch with.

Original - To make a great impression that is not only impactful, but targeted, requires original content. I do not cookie cut my designs; I create original works for your needs, whether it is print and/or web. I can design marketing communications; brochures, booklets, business cards and letterheads for your print needs. I can write a XHTML/CSS website, complete with compelling graphics that will showcase your passions. Your image and driving force is too important to template.

Creative - More than design alone, creativity addresses problem solving as well as pulling ideas from nothing. Positivity and open-mindedness fuel original and creative thought and allow for spectacular results. Creativity is the spark that pulls your ideas in new directions; never settle for average when making your branded message.
