hilldomain is a one man graphic design operation. As a smaller agency I can offer tailor made solutions and personal care that the larger impersonal agencies cannot afford to offer. I do what I do best and outsource the rest to a network of designers and programmers to get your project done efficiently and with excellence.
My office is based in Tokyo Japan but my services extend globally. I hope you will find the design services you are looking for with hilldomain. I am flexible and able to adjust to meet your specific needs. Please contact me so that I can tailor a solution for your situation or contact me with any comments or questions you might have.
Philosphy: I believe quality design should be accesible to all. I enjoy working with all types of clients and especially welcome artists and not-for-profits. I believe my creativity, committment to service, and ability to translate your thoughts and ideas into intuitively functional, asthetically pleasing results, sets hilldomain apart from the rest.
Creative: I like to celebrate creativity and the creative process. I strive to implement balance, simplicity, inspiration,original artwork and photos, text, graphics, video and sound,to produce asthetically pleasing visual solutions.
Dynamic: By definition the creative process is dynamic in nature. I incorporate change,flexibility,and room for future growth into all our design endeavors as well as create a web experience that responds to the input on the user.
Functional: I design for the real world. I am comprehensive in my approach and use scenario based design to best understand and intuitively meet your needs. I rely on client feedback,critical thinking, and collaboration to produce desired results.
Simple: Although there has been amazing advances in web technology like video, sound, flash etc. It's my job to know when to use those tools based on professional design principles, and what will produce the best end-user experience. Incedentally, this site uses Flash only for the top logo- the rest of the interactive elements are done with dhtml/css/html and Javascript.
Web design- I can handle all aspects of web design, from creation of your web site or application to periodic maintainence and updates. This includes information architecture to custom graphics, image and site optimization for faster download times and better results from search engines, to content developement and management. I am willing to work on any size project, whether a family website, not-for profit, company or department, or anything you can dream up.
Information architechture- This is the floor plan or blueprint to guide the end user around your website. I believe it is the most important and most often neglected. Great graphic elements are useless if the information is not accessible, easy to navigate and understandable not only by the client but especially the target audience. The process involves the organization's image, research of the target audience as well as the purpose of the website. A place for everything and everything in its place, with room for future growth- this is good info architechture. We take your thoughts and information and create an organized structure so that people can access the information they need easily and intuitively.
Visual interface design- Visual interface design is not simply webbased. Anything that requires a user to interact with your information can be visually and structurally designed to maximize customer satisfaction.What do people see when they visit your site? How should it make them feel? Can people intuitively figure out the function of your site? These components need to be carefully crafted to be relevant to clients, information, or industries they represent.Concept/Content developement- From spark to well articulated written and graphically represented ideas. If you need help figuring out what to say or how to say it, we can help. We put it together and deliver.
Print Design- Business cards, magazine covers,postcard campaigns, menus, books, billboards, brochures, cd covers and inserts, event posters, stickers,T-shirts, catalogues...If you can print it we will design it.
Logo design- Transforming ideas into recognizable icons that draw clients back to your services or products and give you the recognition you deserve.
Creative consultation- I can provide that spark of creativity you are looking for. If you need ideas to give your project or business energy, We can supply. We use our networking skills, collaboration with a variety of artists and technicians, and brainstorming sessions, to produce solutions to any design dilemma. We can work with your team or solo to get the job done.
Identity developement- Who are you? That is what people are asking. Does your print, web, and other representative materials have a consitent answer? Logos, signature colors, interactive websites, and print materials that provide your client with a comprehensive, consistent image of who you are and what you can do!
