My name is Camille Sauvé and I am a SF Academy of Art trained graphic designer who has been creating websites and print materials for more than 20 years. I am a freelance graphic designer and art director in the San Francisco Bay Area. I specialize in print design and front-end web development, user experience and identity creation. I have worked in small design studios to large marketing departments specializing in identity and graphic design for corporations, small businesses and non-profits organizations.
What I Care About
Efficiency in design
Before starting anything I take time and care to understand the core objectives of your business and what the design is meant to help you achieve. Making sure the graphic design closely matches the goals and objectives of your business is key to good design and its implementation.
Innovative design
I always strive to match the graphic design to your message and your core audience. This means avoiding designs that simply mimic whatever is the latest fad.
Though creativity is important but it must be matched to a business requirement and not just getting you “noticed”. I try to avoid trendy designs, as they will usually be dated looking way too soon. Producing a design that fits your business and sets you up for success while “looking good” for the long time is a much better strategy.
Over the years I have worked with many small and large companies like eSignal, Streivor, and Bay Area Newspaper Group, and non-profits like Polestar Gardens and CEB. I aim to bring that experience and quality to my work to all of my clients whether large or small. My hope is to exceed your expectations and to leave you surprised by the results.
Attention to detail
One thing that I have learned is that a high level of attention to detail is vital to make sure a project goes smoothly. Clear communicating is key from understanding the client’s objectives to managing the design process and deliverables. All these things eliminate last minute hassles and deliver a better result for my clients.
Passion
I want to make sure that everything I produce is something that I would be excited about if I was the client. With every job I try to put everything I have into it.
