Graphic design · for brands and authors
Graphic design with an illustrator's hand.
I look at graphic design from the image first. I combine design with illustration, because typography and illustration have to work as one - not as two layers stitched together.
What I design
Graphic design where illustration plays a role.
I make graphic design that goes beyond classic graphic design. Catalogs, posters, leaflets, brochures, reports, presentations, ebooks, trade-show materials - all with a layer of original illustration.
I work as illustrator and graphic designer in one - so your project is not a patchwork of someone else's illustrations plus someone else's layout. Everything binds into a single story.
Every design is also a story. Typography, color, illustration and layout work together to tell it - so the audience holds their gaze longer than two seconds.
Project types
Graphic design for print and digital.
Six of the most commonly ordered types. Your project doesn't fit any category? Write - we'll figure it out. Catalog, poster and pitch deck are just the start of the list.
- 01
Catalogs and brochures
Product catalog, annual report, service brochure, client newsletter. With illustrations, infographics, custom typography.
- 02
Posters and leaflets
Event poster, campaign leaflet, trade-show materials. Format from postcard to large-format wall poster.
- 03
Sales presentations
Pitch deck, investor presentation, conference materials. Slides you actually want to look at for longer than 5 seconds.
- 04
Marketing materials
Social media carousels, infographics, lookbooks, downloadable PDFs. Consistent with the brand identity.
- 05
Ebooks and lead magnets
Ebook with table of contents, cover and inside illustrations. The kind of material that raises the value of a newsletter signup.
- 06
Board games and card decks
Board, cards, instructions, box - the full graphic design of a board game with a custom illustration layer.
Studio results
Selected work
What you get
Graphic design ready for production.
Editable design file (if you want the option to change things later) plus print-ready files - with the right color profile, resolution and bleed.
I'll help with the choice of printer, paper, format. I handle the whole thing - I do not leave you with files and the question "where do I print this now".
You can give feedback at every stage - revision rounds are written into the quote. No invoice surprises, no billing for every comma.
How collaboration works
How a project comes to life, together.
Four steps, clear milestones, no surprises. From the first email to print-ready files.
- 01
You send an inquiry
Describe what should be made - catalog, poster, presentation, lookbook. Attach the materials you already have: text, logo, photos, references.
- 02
We agree on details and quote
We clarify scope, format, page count, illustration count, deadlines. I tailor the quote to the project and the budget.
- 03
I present the design for approval
I show the first version of the design - layout, typography, illustration. You give feedback; we refine details across the next rounds.
- 04
I finalize and deliver files
After approval I deliver print-ready files (PDF with fonts, bleed, registration marks) plus editable files, if you need them.
Pricing
Custom graphic design quote.
Pricing depends on format, page count, illustration count, deadline, and rights scope. I tailor it to what you specifically need - I don't sell off-the-shelf packages.
You get a quote after the inquiry form. Reply within 48 hours. VAT invoice, contract, clear terms on rights transfer.
Use cases
Where graphic design earns its place.
- 01
Illustrated restaurant menu
An illustrated menu for a restaurant or cafe - dishes, sections, allergen icons in one custom style. Guests remember the place, not just what they ate.
- 02
Wall calendar
A company wall calendar with 12 custom illustrations, given to clients at year end. It hangs on the wall all year and keeps reminding people of the brand.
- 03
Illustrated map
A directions map, a festival map, or a map of the area for a hotel - drawn by hand, with the character of the place, not a Google Maps screenshot.
- 04
Training materials
A workshop workbook, exercise cards, training boards. I break a dry subject into illustrations that help participants actually remember what it was about.
- 05
Illustrated guide
A step-by-step guide or a welcome pack for a new client. An ebook that explains the process with images instead of a wall of text, so someone finally reads it.
- 06
Anniversary publication
An album or a one-off publication for a company's milestone anniversary - the brand's story in illustrations, a timeline, founder profiles. For print or as a downloadable ebook.
Most asked
Graphic design - your questions.
The most common questions from clients ordering graphic design. Missing something? Write to me.
01 How is your graphic design different from a 'regular' agency? +
In a standard agency, illustrations are usually bought from stock or subcontracted. In my studio, the design and the illustration come from the same head - so the material has consistent character, not a patchwork of styles. I work in an authorial way; every project gets typographic-illustrative handwork, not a drag-and-drop template.
02 How long does a catalog or brochure take? +
An average catalog with custom illustrations takes 3-6 weeks - depending on page count, number of illustrations, and how fast feedback comes back. A poster or leaflet is usually 1-2 weeks. A pitch deck starts at two weeks. You get a precise schedule with the quote - with concrete dates for each version handover.
03 Will I get editable files to make changes myself later? +
Yes, if you want - we agree on it at the quote stage. By default I deliver print-ready PDF plus source files in InDesign or Figma. Editable files usually come with short instructions on how to change typical elements without breaking the layout.
04 Will you help me with printing - printer, paper, format? +
Yes. I work with trusted printers in Poland, and I can recommend paper, format, finishing (foil, varnish, die-cut). If you want, I oversee the print process too - from proof to delivery of the print run. We usually settle print directly with the printer, which gives you full control over the invoice.
05 How many revision rounds are included in the price? +
By default I include two revision rounds at the design stage and one at finalization. If during work it turns out your project needs more iterations - we agree on it up front, so you know how it affects timeline and quote. I don't bill hidden fees for moving a pixel.
06 Can I order just the design, without illustrations? +
Yes, although my domain is design fused with illustration. If you only need layout (e.g. you have illustrations ready or we use photos), I'll handle that too - typography, layout, color stay my signature. But if you can, I recommend using the custom illustration layer - that's what makes the biggest difference.
Start a project
Got a project? Let's talk.
I make art that stays - with emotion and attention in every project. Children's book illustration delivered worldwide, wedding and B2B event live painting across Poland - every project starts the same way: an inquiry, a conversation, a decision. Write to me directly. The Bujnowłosa studio is me and a decade-plus of practice.
