Choosing to work with Grant was one of the best decisions we have made. Besides being a talented graphic designer, he is responsive and professional at every step. No matter what kind of project I throw his way, from web design to traditional print, he is always insightful and collaborative, which is reflected in the quality of his work.

We consider Grant an integral part of the Blu Ivy team. As a freelance partner he has worked on countless projects for our own personal brand assets, including the design of our presentation decks, proposals, event materials, thought leadership and social media branding. Grant also plays a key design role on many of our client recruitment marketing and employer brand projects. He is not only a talented designer but a fabulous collaborator.

I was thoroughly impressed with Grant’s creative/artistic designs and his accommodating nature. He has a genuine desire to ensure his clients’ expectations are not only met but are exceeded!

I would highly recommend his services!

Our Services

Branding

Whether you’re a start-up looking for your first brand identity or an established company that needs a brand refresh, we’re here to help guide you in the right direction. Our projects start by developing a strong brand strategy, which will then be applied to your logo and visual identity. Once your branding is finalized, a brand guidelines manual will be created to ensure that the branding remains consistent and on-strategy as your company grows.

Illustration

Illustration has the ability to add that “wow” factor to any design project and if done right, will be eye-catching and memorable. For projects like beer labels, packaging, and apparel, it can be the difference between a purchase and getting passed by. For new businesses that are lacking in photography, custom illustration can be a cost-effective way to produce a stunning library of visual assets without the fuss and cost of organizing a photoshoot.

Our Three Pillars

At Grant Burke, we believe in daring to do things differently – why blend in with the crowd when your own brand has so much potential? It’s time to tell your company’s story, appeal to a broader audience, and suck them in for continued engagement, conversions, and leads. We achieve this by focusing on UX optimized for ease of use, fast load times, UI that matches across all platforms and more – and that’s just for web design and development.

In addition, our branding services focus on helping you stand out for the right reasons through market research, trend analysis, and an extremely meticulous attention to detail. Here are the three pillars that support our mission in helping your branding strategy succeed:

Number One

Create

Our branding and web-focused services are fixated purely on creating something new and exciting, all while infusing it with your company’s core messaging.

By capturing the essence of your business and using our noodles to brainstorm something unashamedly unique, anything is possible when combining your guidance with our professional know-how. With mock-ups to consult and space between updates to avoid overwhelming you, working with us is a seamless and transparent process.

Number One

Innovate

Our team consists of creative specialists that strive to find inventive solutions to your problems. We aren't willing to settle for business as usual.

Everything from that line of HTML code to the feel of your product packaging can be innovated upon, so that’s what we do. With your input and our multi-faceted operations, you can expect a unique branding voice, tone, style, and overall impact. Standing out for the right reasons has never been more achievable.

Number One

Captivate

Everything we do is meticulously considered, from wireframing during web development to colour palette choices during the branding overhaul.

The end goal is to captivate potential customers, no matter who they are, so long as they fit your target demographic. You, therefore, need to acclimate your pre-existing audience to any changes, but at the same time, you must create something fresh and inspiring that will allow you to cast a wider net. Balance is a key component of good design – otherwise, rest assured that no fish will be biting.
