Strategic and purposeful graphic design solutions, without the big-agency attitude.
We’re a small, but mighty graphic design studio.
Based out of West Hartford, Connecticut, we work with clients locally from Boston to New York and remotely around the globe. Our core services include logo design, brand identity, and website design for businesses with a growth mindset.
Hunter Design Studio is small by choice, led by Danielle Hunter, who is the lead designer on every project, but often partners with a talented team of creative professionals behind the scenes to deliver the expertise and efficiency needed for unique requests. This allows our team to scale up or down, depending on your needs. We take care of any coordination with print shops, photographers, videographers, copywriters, strategists, etc., to help save you time and money on your next project.

FAQs
-
If you’re considering updating your branding, here are a few questions to ask yourself:
Has your business recently grown or changed?
Do you have a new competitor?
Are you speaking to a different audience base than when you first opened up shop?
Have you adjusted you brand values or mission?
Does your logo feel a bit dated?
(or do you feel embarrassed to show it off?)These are all good indicators of whether it’s time for a brand refresh or not. Chances are, if you’ve been thinking about refreshing your logo, website, or marketing collateral, then it’s probably time. Just like your business has grown and evolved over the years, your brand visuals should too!
-
Timelines vary based on the pace of feedback and the extent of revisions, but with clear project objectives and prompt client communication, most logo or brand design projects are completed within 4-8 weeks. For web design or more complex requests with multiple deliverables, projects can take up to 2-3 months.
As a small studio, a limited number of projects are booked each quarter so we can focus on our current clients and deliver the best quality of work. Each project is carefully scheduled and we’re rarely able to take on last-minute work. If you’re interested in working together, please contact us in advance so that we can fit you into our calendar and get your project booked!
-
Tight deadlines happen, that’s completely understandable. But it’s important to note that good design takes time.
Quality design work comes from thorough research, attention to detail, tailored creative solutions, and testing multiple iterations. When things are rushed, each of these necessary steps in the creative process suffers.
We build custom timelines for each project that include adequate time for you to ask questions and provide feedback, to ensure that you’ll be completely satisfied with the end result.
-
There is rarely a one-size-fits-all solution to pricing creative services. We work with all kinds of entrepreneurs and businesses who’s project needs vary depending on their size and industry type.
Design is an important investment for any company, but everyone’s return on that investment looks different. Because our local small business clients will have a much smaller return on investment than the national brands that we work with, we charge based on the value that we deliver to each individual client.
Successful brands are built with strong visuals based on research, strategy, and then design. Before we can make informed decisions and find opportunities for your brand to stand out, we have to get to know your business from the ground up in order to create a brand mark that truly fits your unique personality. When brand design is done well, it will bring value to your business for years to come.
Most of our clients fall within the following levels of investment based on their budget types*:
Level 1
Small Business/Start-Up, $2-7k+Level 2
Medium Size Company, $4-9k+Level 3
Large Organization, $6-11k+*Please note that tight deadlines, complex websites, and additional concepts/revisions may increase project costs.
