Hey, I'm Saara - a multi-disciplined freelance designer & creative design studio owner based in Ely, Cambridgeshire. With over 5 years of freelance experience, I've specialised in retail & graphic design for small businesses and international clients!

I've had the opportunity to assist the launch of many new products over the years, creating exciting window displays worldwide, visual merchandising guidelines, creating digital and print designs as well as assisting photo shoots.

  • Collaborating with me as a freelance designer is a great way to add a designer in the team.

    1. Flexible schedules, allowing for quicker turnaround times and availability when you need it, with some projects that can be delivered in less than a week.

    2. More cost-effective especially for short-term projects, or on regular basis for spikes in workload, helping you scale your resources quickly without long-term commitments.

    3. Diverse skill set from graphic design to retail design, or helping you organise your trade show.

    4. Creative collaboration, bringing unique creative approaches to your brand.

  • There are different ways for us to collaborate together.

    1. Per hour - remote: The hourly rate varies according to the softwares I use to complete the work. Quotes can be sent beforehand, or we can agree on a monthly billing system.

    2. Day rate - remote: Book me in for a specific design task. Day rates are beneficial for brands to work on a lower hourly rate, but projects have to be pre-agreed beforehand.

    3. Day rate - in-person: Based on an 8 hour day slot, I can travel to help with any design task that requires me on site. Travel is always charged separately on top of the day rate.

  • From small businesses to international clients, over the years I have worked with brands like L’Occitane, Justin Alexander, Sincerity, Memo Paris, Floraiku and Hermetica.
