What a typical project timeline and cost might look like.

Here's a few examples of timelines and costs for the most common types of engagements I'm involved in …

Product Design

4-8 weeks - Price ranges from €15-€25k

Typically includes UX research, defining user personas, capturing user stories, and mapping customer journeys to deeply understand the target audience. This is followed by wire-framing and prototyping to visualise and test the product's functionality, and finally, UI design to craft the visual identity and interface, including layout, typography, colours, and imagery.

Brand Website Design & Build

2-4 weeks - Price ranges from €5k-€15k

Crafting a compelling brand website involves a thoughtful process. It begins with strategic planning, where together we will define your marketing goals, target audience, and unique value proposition. Next, I'll design a visually appealing, user-friendly interface, in line with your existing brand identity. Finally, I'll build and launch the website, ensuring it is optimised for search engines and user accessibility.

e-Commerce Website

6-8 weeks - Price ranges from €15k-€20k

Designing an effective e-commerce website involves a strategic design process that is collaborative and tailored to your business goals. I'll research your target audience, develop user personas, and map customer journeys to inform the design. Following that phase I'll wireframe, prototype, and test the design before crafting a visually captivating and on-brand user interface. The final result is optimised for search engines, mobile devices, and user accessibility.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are you available on a retained fee structure?

I'm pleased to offer a flexible fee structure that accommodates your needs. For a set amount of days per month, you'll receive regular updates and deliverables, as well as detailed monthly reports to track progress and ensure transparency. This arrangement ensures seamless collaboration and helps us stay focused on your goals. Retained fees are calculated off a base rate of €95 per hour.

Do you require a deposit?

Yes, for each project, once final costs have been agreed, 50% upfront payment is required, followed by the 50% balance payment upon completion. On a retained fee structure, no deposit is required.

How can I track my projects progress?

Throughout your project, you'll have complete visibility into progress and deliverables. Project management software (Monday.com) will be used to track and share all projects, whether a single project or multiple projects under a retained fee structure. This platform will provide you with real-time updates on timelines, milestones, and deliverables. Additionally, work-in-progress files will be linked within the software and shared online via Figma and Framer, allowing you to follow along and provide direct feedback in the live project. This collaborative approach ensures seamless communication and ensures alignment on your goals.
