About

My Graphic Design Background

My name is Roland Codd, and I work as a freelance graphic designer.

I graduated in 1998 and began my design career at a newspaper company, where I designed adverts and features. In 1999, I moved to London, where I worked as a designer for Dorling Kindersley, Carroll & Brown Publishing and Chrysalis Books; and as an Art Director for Quintet Publishing.

At the end of 2005, I launched my freelance career. Since then, I have worked for a variety of clients, both big and small, on a wide range of design projects.

In 2007, I moved to Canterbury, where I now work out of my studio.

My clients include:

  • PenguinRandomHouse
  • HarperCollins
  • Canterbury Christ Church University
  • Falstaff Hotel and Bar
  • Springer Healthcare
  • University of Kent
  • Hesperus Press
  • Hotel Chocolat

Some Helpful Tips

Please provide me with some details about your project. This will give me an idea about what your business/product is about, and what you hope to achieve for the end design. It will also give me an idea of the timescale involved.

Please include:

  • Your type of business
  • Type of project (magazine, brochure or book cover design, etc.)
  • Whether it is a new project or following an established house style
  • Your target market
  • Timescale/deadline for the project
  • Your budget

If you have a set budget, I can usually offer a solution that fits within it. If not, I can provide an estimate outlining some options of what I can offer, along with the costs involved.

I look forward to hearing from you.
