Seeking Freelance Graphic Designers for Upcoming Projects

Friday, December 18th, 2009

We’re seeking out an awesome graphic designer to contribute to visual language of two new sites. One site is focused on sustainable textiles. The other is focused on reforestation/sustainable development.

Specifically, we’re looking for a designer to design some unique iconography for both sites that helps tell the stories behind the materials and the supply chain.

We are looking to develop about 13 icons for one site that are unique to the company; that brand our web experience; and effectively communicate the sustainable attributes behind the materials and the process. The second site is seeking out approximately 5 icons. These two projects are separate.

Our budget for the first project (of 13 icons) is anywhere between $500 and $1,000 commensurate with experience and portfolio.
