Freelance Graphic Designer Based in Kent
Hi, welcome to Su Swan Designs, I’m a graphic designer based on the South-East coast of Kent
With over 24 years of graphic design experience, I have a wide understanding of how to work on both large and small design projects.
If you’re looking for help creating a piece of print, online promotions, or an illustration project, I’d love to chat with you!
Graphic design for organisations that make a difference
I'm Su Swan, a freelance graphic designer based in Hythe on the Kent coast, with over 24 years of experience creating print and digital design for organisations that care about the world around them.
I specialise in working with environmental, nature-based, and ethical organisations — from wildlife trusts and conservation charities to community groups and festivals. Clients I've worked with include Kent Wildlife Trust, Canterbury Festival, Buglife, and West Kent Mind.
Whether you need a brochure that tells your story, a brand identity that reflects your values, leaflets that engage your audience, or illustrations that bring your message to life, I can help. I work closely with every client to understand their goals and deliver design that's thoughtful, effective, and beautiful.
Based in Kent, I work with organisations across the South East and beyond.
Why work with a freelance designer?
Working with a freelance graphic designer means you get a dedicated, personal service without the overheads of a large agency.
I'm involved in every stage of your project from the initial brief through to final delivery, so nothing gets lost in translation. You'll always be working directly with the person designing your materials.
A thoughtful approach to every project
Good design starts with understanding. Before I open any software, I take time to learn about your organisation, your audience, and what you're trying to achieve. That might mean a simple phone call or a longer conversation over coffee — whatever works best for you.
This approach means the finished design isn't just something that looks good, but something that works hard for your organisation and connects with the people you're trying to reach.
If you have a project you’d like help with, please feel welcome to get in touch.
