Digital illustrations and user-centric design

Are you seeking a brand identity that's intimate, distinctive, and narrates your unique story?
Are you likely to hold your audience on your website for longer than 3 seconds?

Hi, I’m Sandra Staufer digital illustrator and visual storyteller.

With my extensive background as the Creative Director of a media agency spanning over 25 years, I possess a wealth of experience in driving user engagement. I specialise in crafting hardworking images that amplify brand presence and convey compelling narratives.

Your story is important. I help you tell it with creativity, colour, empathy and a pinch of humour to help conversion.

I create digital illustrations for your business.

Illustrations weave narratives of a thousand words and convey far beyond stock photographs, especially when dealing with intricate and delicate messages. They forge an immediate bond with your audience, seamlessly integrating into your brand identity and eloquently narrating YOUR unique story.

Visual Metaphors

Hardworking images

Impactful Powerpoint

A presentation with a difference

It is hard enough to find engaging content for a presentation. Even harder to get people to actively listen!

A handful of pleasant and approachable illustrations can differentiate yout organisation from your rivals and exert a deeper impact on the audience, particularly in demanding contexts or during tender proceedings.

Case study

Cheeky illustrations crafted for a well-known Gin distillery based in Brighton

Brighton Gin was born of a passion for gin, and a passion for the place where they live and play.

They wanted to create a gin that embodies the Spirit of Brighton: unusual, playful and fiercely independent.

Branding your event

For impact and positive recollections

Crafting the identity of an event poses a formidable task. Attendees will recall the cuisine, the presenters, the newfound connections, and the amusement. Nevertheless, the pivotal essence of the event resides in the experience it delivers and the emotions it evokes in the audience throughout and beyond its duration. The event's standing and the way it's perceived all converge on its branding.

Over the preceding three years, I've actively contributed to shaping the brand of the Brighton Chamber Summit, a journey that's been nothing short of a joyous experience collaborating with this imaginative institution. Below is a glimpse into last year's Summit, aptly named 'Unite':
