Design from Northumberland
Max Covey Design is based in rural Northumberland, in the heart of Coquetdale and on the border of Northumberland National Park. The sheer beauty of the surroundings are enough to inspire any designer to create.
WHY SHOULD YOU COLLABORATE WITH ME?
The method in the madness
Each job I undertake has a full creative design process in place to ensure that every aspect of the client’s brief is carefully considered and executed throughout the project and into the final designs. Having a full start-to-finish process for a client brief allows me to concentrate on the effectiveness of the design by ensuring that the most important things are always accounted for.
Collaboration all the way
Communication is one of the most important things for any designer, I believe that the key to a good final design is ensuring an open line of contact and feedback between the designer and the client throughout a project.
Thoughtful design with the audience in mind
I believe that with both a tried and tested method and an open line of communication, great design can be achieved. A powerful design should meet not only the client’s expectations but should inspire its target audience through its visual communication.
My Story
I have always loved being creative since I was a kid,
always writing stories and drawing pictures. After
I left school, I went straight into an apprenticeship
with an engineering company and ever since, I have
felt my calling was elsewhere, doing something creative.
A few years ago I created a YouTube channel about
football, and from the start I have been creating my
own graphics, logos, thumbnails, livestream borders,
banners and headers.
Over this time I developed a skillset and passion for
creating artwork. This led me to do some research
online about the kinds of education you could get
in the world of Graphic Design. I came across the
Creative Design School course.
Throughout the course, I have been able to formally
learn about the ins and outs of the Graphic Design process
and experience, allowing me to look at design
problems with a more trained eye to help clients
realise their vision. While it may seem like my
experience is limited, I have certainly been using the
design toolsets and learning them for a long time now
and believe with my design process and creativity I
can create great work that fits a client’s needs.
