About me

Hi, Mark here. Graphic designer + the founder of independent design studio - Superfried.

It all began in 2007 from a London bedroom. But now Superfried delivers branding strategy from sunny Manchester.

Superfried designs branding solutions for domestic + international clients across multiple industries. They vary in scale from start-ups + non profits through to global brands. When required I collaborate with trusted external specialists to create bespoke teams.

Experience has taught me that every project is unique. To deliver effective strategies + creative solutions, simplicity + client collaboration are key throughout the process. So I ask a lot of questions + listen. Only then, can I fully understand your problems + design appropriate solutions to solve them.

Now the inevitable bit of promo... In addition to global recognition for the work online + in print, Superfried has won multiple awards for graphic design, branding + typography. Sorry!

So, if you like what Superfried do let me know please, it's nice to hear. Then drop me a message with your project requirements + I will promptly reply to arrange a chat over tea or WiFi.
