Small or big – I don’t discriminate based on project size. Whether you commission me for a whole project or keep me on retainer – prepare to get consistent quality and an epic collaborator. I will give you (damn good) design and make the process simple for you.

When you’re looking for a good designer, the first thing you’ll want to see is a fantastic portfolio. You can head to my portfolio and have a look for yourself (it’s just a sliver of the brilliant designs I’ve created over the years). However, truly great designers will tell you design is not just about beautiful visuals (although that’s exactly what you’ll get), it’s about a creative and collaborative process. 

Hi, I’m Ritika – freelance creative director and graphic designer.

I create (damn good) designs, but the way I do it is even better – by meeting deadlines, having clear and open communication, and giving fabulous quality.

I design branding, publications, and websites for agencies, business owners, and corporates who hire me for a project, or keep me on retainer. My clients usually operate in finance, healthcare, education, hospitality, manufacturing, and tech. Wherever you are in the world, I’m always up for all kinds of creative collaborations.

I know I should be telling you the most wonderful things about me, but in truth, what I prefer to do is to make sure my clients are in a position to do all the praising for me. Because, to me, it is important that you feel supported, listened to, and trust that I truly understand what it is you’re trying to say and achieve with design.

If you scroll through my testimonials here or on LinkedIn, you’ll see the common things they say – “organised, keen eye for details, true partner, very collaborative, ruthless with timelines…”

This is all fantastic, but I feel everything sounds really formal when I’m actually quite the opposite. A wine loving, scuba diving, jigsaw puzzle addict – I’m a fan of the oxford comma and I drink copious amounts of coffee. I swear (not so) occasionally and watch an unhealthy amount of stand up comedy. 

Every proposal I send out is tailored to what you need. However, they always end with the same three sentences (it’s the reason a recent client signed on with me):

  • A super systematic and structured person, I instil the same rigour in my design + process.
  • I respect my clients + their time and accept nothing less in return.
  • You have my word, I will give my best to your project.

If you’re already thinking ‘sign me up, Ritika, I’m your next client’, email me you cute koala. Or even better, book a virtual chat.

I’ve heard folks say that ‘no-one cares about your brand the way you do’. They’re wrong – Ritika Arya does. She’s insanely talented when it comes to integrating content with design in a way that makes your content reach further into the hearts of potential customers. She’s meticulous, ruthless with timelines and delivering value, and to cap it all, an absolute riot to work with.

When I was deep in the weeds of consolidating two websites she simply took over, resuscitated the brand, aligned our sad paperwork, and gave me back nights for peaceful sleep.

Don’t even think about it. Work with her.

I recently worked with Ritika on a redesign of my website and the entire process could not have run more smoothly. Ritika was organised, delivered what she promised in the agreed time frame, and was very collaborative in her approach to completing the project.

I found Ritika to be knowledgeable, supportive and professional in her approach to how she got things done. I recommend her to anyone who values quality service and wants to work with someone who makes the subject matter and process easy to understand.
