Taking a concept and bringing it to life
About
My name is Colleen Murray and I am Palomar Designs. I’m a freelance graphic and user interface designer based in Johannesburg, South Africa with over 12 years of experience in the design industry.
I strive to take the time to understand the needs of each of my clients and the nuances of their design dream before setting out to breathe life into their concept. My range of design skills cover brand identities and print materials that are creative and purposeful to the digital experiences of web and app design that marry user experience with striking aesthetic appeal.
