about Rod Sawatsky
Hi and thanks for the visit. A bit about me...I was born in BC, raised in the Congo (DRC) and educated in BC. It's been 12 years since I finished design school and started work as a freelance designer in Greater Vancouver. I have worked on a broad range of design projects including logos, corporate identity, packaging, brochures, large format tradeshow graphics, CD covers, 3D product illustration, web design and hand lettering. Client needs are quite varied and I'm always stretching my skills to offer the best quality solutions.
My approach to any design project starts with getting to know you (my client) and finding out what you have a passion for. If I don't have the skills to build what would serve you best I'm not afraid to let you know. I believe in openness and honesty. Fortunately, I've been able to develop relationships with a great team of colleagues skilled in various disciplines that can help tell your story. In the end, it's always a guess at what is going to communicate the right message to your intended audience...but it's a guess backed by careful thought and our collective experience. So far the results have been good. I can't overstate the importance of a satisfied client. If it means extra time to get things right I put it in without a fuss. I love the variety of people and projects i've been able to work with. Keep them coming!
