Hi hello, it’s Shelley! I’m a freelance designer with 7+ years experience across graphic design, web design and art direction – I currently help digital-native brands in the fashion, beauty and lifestyle space transform their strategy into considered, human-centred design. As a generalist at heart, I naturally sit at the intersection of research, strategy and craft. I deeply believe that design is fundamentally about communication and problem solving, so I personally love diving into data on why something is (or isn’t) working, whilst still appreciating the creativity and visual design.
My name's Ivano! I'm a Graphic Designer who specialises in Branding, Motion Graphics, Merchandising and Squarespace Web Design. Alongside this I have experience in Photography and Video Editing! I've had over 5 years experience freelancing and love making an impact for my clients!

A signage gig covers artwork built to the sign maker's specs: correct dimensions, scaled artwork, vector logo, safe margins and colour set for the material rather than for a screen. You should get a print-ready file the fabricator can work from directly, plus a mockup showing the sign in place so you can picture it before anyone cuts anything. Fabrication and installation are separate and paid to the sign maker.
Readability at distance and speed. A shopfront sign is read from across the road, a road-side sign from a moving car, so the test is how few words carry the message and how much clear space sits around them. Contrast does more work than colour, and a plain sign in the right size beats a clever one nobody can parse at 60km/h.
Usually 1 to 2 weeks once you have the sign maker's specs and your brand files. The design itself is quick; the wait is normally getting exact measurements and material details from the fabricator. Get those first and the gig moves fast, because the designer cannot set artwork properly without them.
Often yes, and it varies by council and by whether the sign is illuminated, projecting or heritage-listed. Your sign maker usually knows the local rules and can handle the application. Worth checking before the design gig starts, because approval conditions can cap your sign's size or brightness and change the artwork.
Signage is graphic design constrained by the physical world. It has to survive weather, be legible at distance, fit a fabrication method and sometimes satisfy a council. A designer who has done signage before will ask about material, lighting and viewing distance first. A general graphic designer may hand you artwork that looks great on screen and fails on an aluminium panel.
Vector artwork, almost always: an EPS, AI or PDF with fonts outlined, built to the exact size or to a clean scale. Raster files like JPGs blow up badly at sign size. Ask for the source file too, so a different fabricator can quote the same job later without redrawing your logo.
In Australia, artwork for a single shopfront or A-frame sign typically runs $400 to $1,200. A set covering a shopfront, window graphics and wayfinding inside more commonly lands at $1,500 to $4,000. Price tracks how many signs, how much artwork has to be redrawn as vector, and whether mockups for council are part of the gig. Fabrication and install are separate.
The range on this page runs from about $69 to $188 an hour. Nearer $69 is a junior designer, the middle of the band covers most gigs (an experienced designer working solo), and the top of the band is a design lead. For signage, paying up is often the cheaper option, because a fabrication error costs far more than the design did.
Ask for signage they have actually had made, not just renders, and photos of it installed. Ask whether they have worked with your sign maker's file requirements before. A designer who asks about material, viewing distance and lighting in the first chat is the one to shortlist.
Post a signage design gig in 60 seconds. Describe the work, set your budget and timeframe, and choose whether it is time-based or outcome-based. Local freelancers send a bid with a quote, you compare their profiles, portfolios and reviews, then pick the one that fits. Posting is free, so you only pay for the work.
Every gig runs on a payment schedule you both agree on up front, and every payment is held securely through Stripe. On an outcome-based gig you fund each stage before the work starts and it is released once you sign off. On a time-based gig you are charged for each month as it starts, and it is released to your freelancer once that month has been worked. No chasing invoices, and no paying for work that is not done.
