Hi, I'm Maddy,

I’m the founder of Paiv Creative. I am based in Norwich but work with businesses all across the UK and Europe. I specialise in brand identity design, but also work in editorial design, creative campaigns, packaging and web design. I’m really passionate about translating someone’s business vision into reality and helping them achieve success. I’m also a big advocate of ‘shopping local’, there are so many benefits to supporting independent businesses, and design is no different.

Ways we can work together...

✶ BRANDING

A brand identity is about so much more than just a logo. A strong identity can help set you apart from the crowd and leaves a lasting impression. My branding packages can include (but are not limited to): logo design, colour exploration, typography selection, brand guidelines and lots more depending on what you need

✶ BRAND STRATEGY

So that what it looks like means something. I strongly believe in establishing branding that is rooted in meaning so that everything you see is there for a reason and has its place. I offer workshops to help discover what it is that makes you special before we even get stuck into the design stage

✶ PRINT

From business cards to flyers, point of sale, brochures, editorial and packaging, whatever your print requirements we can ensure your brand is leaving a tangible footprint with the right people
‍

✶ WEB & DIGITAL

A website is like your shop window so ensuring it is representative of your brand and looks the part is really important. I offer fully custom site design ready to be passed to a developer, or Squarespace website design and customisation

The Roadmap

Discover

In this first phase, we will take a deep dive into exactly what it is you want to achieve with your brand, what your core values and messages are, and how I can help. My design work is rooted in research and creating meaning behind everything I do, and this is how I start every project. In this stage I will really take the time to understand your business and what you need.

Design

This is where we will get stuck into the creative process and bring it all to life. If you need additional creative to help add to your brand, I have a remote team of best-in-class freelancers in the fields of marketing, videographers, photographers, web developers and many more so there's no need to stress about sourcing everyone individually.

Activate

This is where your brand really comes to life and works in the real world. Whether you need a new visual identity or a new product launch, I can help you to bring this to life in a way that best fits you and your brand. I can also help to keep your brand consistent and up-to-date on an on-going basis so you always have a strong brand aesthetic that is consistent.
