Children's Brand Designer / Illustrator

Hey there! I'm Dominique, and I'm starting a new venture called Heaps Awesome (waiting for Trademark so this may change). 

This business has two parts: first, a social media platform to educate about sustainability, and with a focus on sustainability in the children’s toy industry. Second, an eco-friendly kids' toy store.

I've worked with startups before and been through the branding experience. A designer friend was supposed to design my brand, but he's busy with his new baby. So, instead, he will help me to create mood boards and a detailed brief and I'm then looking for a designer or an agency to step in and help with the execution:

• Main Brand assets: Logo, possibly an icon like 'HA' if I end up using Heaps Awesome as the name, Font, Colour Palette.

• Character/Object Style & Assets - I’d like a set of animal/object assets for ads, social templates,  surface patterns, and more.

• Packaging: Just one sustainable kraft box, inside and out.

• Social Assets: using the asset’s you’ve created, I want around 10-15 social media templates including an eDM templates - set up inside Canva for me.

• Website: I will most likely be working with a Shopify template to keep costs down, so this would be a case of using this template and brand assets to create on-brand website design elements.

I'm aiming for a style similar to Burnt Toast (you can find him on Dribble, please look this up) so please only get in touch if you are an illustrator who can match a similar style and can prove this with other work you have done. Please send me past work as reference! One thing I am very passionate about is not using AI to illustrate this.

I'm budget-conscious as this business is a solo endeavour, so I'd appreciate an estimate and options to customise the quote. Also would love an indication as to when you can start. I will be ready to go within a week or two.

Please note, the I am only starting out so there is no existing website to apply on, I just had to include a url be able to submit this job to Dribble. Please email me at dominique@heapsawesome.com with your portfolio and illustrations to show that you can match the style I need, as well as a cost range (just to establish if I can afford to work with you, noted this is not the actual quote).

Looking forward to working with you!

Thanks,

Dominique
