welcome to sparkledesign

 

I invite you to explore my graphic design project portfolio.

My specialties are:

  • Information design
  • Interface & Interaction design
  • Web design
  • Logo design / Corporate identity / Branding

As a graphic designer, I have worked in a variety of environments: small design studio, medium-sized software corporation, and freelance design contractor.

I have also worked on a variety of projects: interfaces, web sites, logos, advertising, and even some handcrafted surprises.

The common threads are represented by 6 simple shapes in shades of red, green, and blue: analysis and intuition lead to ideas for innovation and excellence in communicating the concept. Developing a visual system ties all the elements together into a cohesive whole, with a refined aesthetic and a clear message to the intended audience.

 

Enjoy,

Katie Ahlquist
