She could spit in the eyes of fools

Hi. My name’s Laura. I’m an Illustrator. A Designer. A Brander. A Dog Lover. And a huge Bowie fan. Not necessarily in that order. If you’re reading this, then you’re probably looking for someone to help bring your business to life. To help you stand out from the crowd. To reflect your unique personality and your brand’s authenticity. Maybe you’ve been googling around and come across a hundred design agencies that offer you the world wrapped up in some conveyor-belt corporate spiel. Accompanied with stock shots of seemingly happy, pretty people sharing ideas over an IKEA desk and looking a bit numb. That’s not me.

She’s in the best-selling show

So. If I’m not that, then who am I? And what am I offering? I’m somebody who’ll get to know you and your business from the moment we start chatting. I’ll help to define your brand for you and express it in quirky, meaningful ways that will pop. I’m not a minimalist, all clean lines and hints of Teutonic Beige. I’m a maximalist. Unlike my musical hero I don’t do Berlin Trilogies. I like to throw creative spanners in works, upset apple carts, and turn Space Oddities into commercial possibilities that will make your clients love your wares.

I’ve tried to make things simple too. I have a process that takes the stresses and strains out of working with a designer. And I’ve bundled things up in realisable, costed packages, so you know exactly what you’re getting, at a price you’re happy with, and no hidden extras.

To my mother, my dog, and clients

So how does it all come together? Well it’s me, my trusty Diamond Dog, Ziggy, inspired by Ziggy Stardust, who in turn inspired the name for my own business ZigZag. Is the Bowie thing just random? No. He was an artist who knew how to reinvent himself. A visionary who saw the Internet as not just a virtual reality, but reality itself, and who above all else, knew that to be original and authentic, you had to create an image that would rise above the rest. I like to think that’s me, and what I can give you. Laura, the girl with the mouse and flair.

When things went Hunky Dory

Just wanted to recommend ZigZag design that I found a few months ago. Laura has worked on a logo and some branding for me, and she’s been an absolute star. Incredibly talented and a lovely person. I would highly recommend for anyone needing design work done!

Fiona Brook, Founder, Mumblebum

Laura is an excellent designer, taking our simple brief and breathing a lot of creativity into it. Excellent communication and collaboration throughout the process and we loved the finished product. I would recommend her services.

Felix Gilfedder, Digital Development Manager, Solar Bear

Laura provided an extremely professional service and helped me achieve the look I was going for. She was able to help me refine the design and gave me lots of options to choose from. I also benefited from her expertise on colour palettes, fonts and a full digital package so that I’m able to use the logo in multiple formats. I love the finished product and will continue to use her service for future projects. Highly recommend.

Christina Curran, Owner, Forest & Belle

A big Thank YOU to Laura at ZigZag.

We recently required a graphic designer for a number of jobs and wanted to stay local. She was very helpful, patient and did a great job with all. We highly recommend Laura.

Scott Jeffrey, Director, Re:Place Windows

We’re delighted with the work Laura has provided; our brief came to life and the design work exceeded expectations. We’d have no hesitation in recommending Laura.

Jonathan Annan, MRICS, Business Manager, Home Report Scotland

I have two pieces of Laura’s work framed on the wall in my home studio. That says it all really.

John-Paul Hughes, Creative Director, MindField Advertising & Marketing

We have worked with Laura on a range of design projects including branding, corporate identity and event materials. Laura grasped our needs and produced fantastic designs, exceeding our expectations each time. She has been outstanding to work with from the start to after the projects were finished. I will not hesitate to use her again and I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Agata Myszkowska, Marketing Manager, Waterman’s Solicitors

I knew business branding was very important and needed a unique and bold logo/branding, so Laura was the absolute go to. She understood the brief and was able to execute it with excellent results. People love the branding and some have stated that they felt it was a trusted business as a result of it. If you’re thinking of investing in branding with Laura do it! Your business will benefit massively.
