If you're looking for a print or web design agency for your visuals, Design Elite is the number one choice. I recommend them without hesitation. Thank you for your work.

Lorenzo de Blegiers

CEO - Clarifié

A game changer for my static ads and nurturing! I opted for the largest subscription plan because we need to produce tons of creatives for our Meta ads. The process is extremely smooth, and the execution is perfect. We're seeing very good KPIs on the ads we produce with them. I recommend!

Chalom Ellezam

Founder - Bootcode

Very professional agency. Fast and responsive, they redesigned my bootcode.co website, which I had originally built myself using a template. As I'm not a designer, I then hired Design Elite, who, at a very affordable price, revamped my visual identity and my website. Thanks to the team for a successful job!

Martin Vernay

CEO - Ergo Concept

We enlisted Design Elite for a complete overhaul of our graphic identity (logos, colors, fonts...), the creation of icons specific to our business, the development of presentation documents, elements for our catalog, and our future website. The team showed an excellent understanding of our needs and challenges. The deliverables were quick and of high quality. We will gradually implement them across all our materials. We definitely won't hesitate to work with them again in the future!

Your questions about Art Direction

What does an art director actually do?

An art director defines a brand's visual world and oversees how it is applied everywhere: print, digital, social, packaging. They guarantee the creative coherence of every project. At Design Elite you get that expertise through the subscription: your dedicated art director steers your creative direction continuously, without the cost of a full-time hire.

What is the difference between art direction and creative direction?

Art direction focuses on aesthetics and visuals: choice of colors, typography, composition, graphic style. Creative direction has a wider remit that includes communications strategy, copywriting and marketing. At Design Elite our art direction service covers the complete visual vision for your brand, applied consistently across all your communication materials.

What does art direction cost?

A freelance art director charges around €400 a day, which works out at €8,000 to €10,000 for a complete art direction project. At Design Elite you get art direction on an ongoing basis through the design subscription. Your dedicated art director works on your projects month after month, with unlimited revisions and a fixed monthly fee.

How does art direction improve how your company is perceived?

Professional art direction creates a visual thread that makes your brand instantly recognizable. It turns every touchpoint, from your website to your social channels to your sales documents, into one coherent brand experience. With Design Elite that creative vision is maintained over time by a dedicated designer who grows with your brand.

Does a small business need art direction?

Yes, and it is where art direction makes the biggest difference. A small business has to stand out quickly against more established competitors, and strong art direction creates an immediate sense of professionalism and credibility. The Design Elite subscription makes that expertise accessible on a predictable budget, without the prohibitive cost of a traditional communications agency.
