With a proven background in typography, and the latest professional design software, Ralph can get your printed message across clearly and professionally.
You have a regular designer, or even your own design department, but they’re on holiday, on maternity leave, or just a bit busy…
Relax. Ralph can help.
Ralph can’t draw your dog. Sorry.
We CAN draw maps, scientific diagrams, product illustrations, sales and data charts, product graphics and infographics.
Established in 2008, and a Limited Company since 2010, Ralph Design offer graphic design, artwork and illustration services to all businesses and organisations, large or small. Based some ten miles north-west of Cambridge, we work with clients in the local area on a face-to-face basis but, thanks to email and pdf technology we also have customers countrywide, in Europe and even in the USA.
We work on one-off projects like logos and stationery, larger campaigns such as online web graphics that need occasional additions and updates, or regular repeat work such as newsletters, annual reports and brochures.
We also help customers who have their own design departments but need occasional support.
Whether you need a corporate logo, brochure, instruction diagram, adverts, display material or other marketing collateral, or just someone reliable to 'hold the fort' Ralph can help.

Take a look at some examples of previous work.

A set of information leaflets for museum visitors, along with translated versions.

Design and artwork of scientific programme logo, along with secondary sub-programme versions.

What we lack in heads, we make up for in experience.
Ralph has over 35 years' experience in design and artwork.
Starting way back in the late 1980s with a drawing board and a scalpel (and a degree in Multidisciplinary Design) he worked in a variety of design, advertising and artwork studios in North Staffordshire and Cambridgeshire before 'leaving work' and going freelance in 2008.
He set up Ralph Design Ltd in 2010.
Sam graduated with a BTEC in Technical Illustration 'some years ago', and first worked with Ralph in a Cambridge design agency in the 1990s.
She joined Ralph as artworker in 2011.
(Artworker? If you consider the graphic designer to be architect, then the artworker is builder.)
You may have a good idea of what you need, or you may have no idea whatsoever.
In either case, Ralph can offer advice and guidance based on years of experience in designing for, among others, the medical, manufacturing, publishing, educational, scientific and conservation sectors. If there's something to say, Ralph will say it. It's part of the job.
Ralph are proud to be approachable. Adaptable. Dependable.
