A Belfast studio for brands that want to be taken seriously.
The studio
ConlanDesign is a design studio in Belfast run by Sean-Paul Conlan. We work with businesses across Northern Ireland and further afield on brand identity, web design and graphic design, from a first logo through to a full identity system and a website to carry it.
Most of our clients are established businesses that have grown on reputation and word of mouth and have reached the point where their brand is holding them back. Joiners, landscapers, gyms, cafés, technology firms. The common thread is work that deserves to look as good as it is.
Background
The studio's roots are in graphic design, with close to a decade spent shaping brands across sport, creative industries and growing businesses. That includes years of boxing and MMA event design, which is why our sports work has the energy it does, and experience in digital and learning design, which is why our websites are built with the person using them in mind.
How we work
Every project starts with a conversation about what the business actually needs, not a template. We ask a lot of questions early, show work in progress rather than a single big reveal, and hand over properly at the end: editable files, a clear set of guidelines, and a website you own outright.
You deal with one designer from the first call to the final file.
Services
Brand identity
Logos, colour, type and the rules that hold them together. For new businesses starting out and established ones that have outgrown what they had.
Web design
Fast, straightforward websites designed and built to be found on Google and easy to update. No bloated templates.
Graphic design
Print, packaging, signage, social assets and event posters. Anything that needs to look like it belongs to the same brand.
