I am Burrows Design

aka Graham Burrows

What initially began as a logo design side project, resulted in the creation of Burrows Design, an independent, cross disciplinary graphic, packaging and digital design studio based in the UK, in God's own country, West Yorkshire, with over 25 years design experience, specialising in minimalist modernism with reassuring simplicity.

My love for logo design and the art of reduction and simplification forms an integral part of my design process.

WhittleBirds

More recently i've been stepping away from the screen and into my little workshop making my WhittleBirds - midcentury design inspired wooded birds, handcrafted with bespoke BirdBoxes to suit.

My little shop



From humble beginnings

It's 1999, and a young, fearless though diffident young man joins what was then a small team of creatives.

My working journey began with a 1-week placement, mocking up in a relatively small design studio. My skills proved so versatile, my time there was extended to a month, and finally freelanced for a further six months before being asked to join the design family full time.

Initially, the magic happened with the good old pencil, ruler, and scalpel, expertly cutting and sticking. Packaging design was my thing and I loved what paper offered as a substrate. Slowly but surely, the Apple Macintosh was introduced, and with it, Adobe Illustrator and the Wacom tablet.

A whole new world opened up.

20 years or so later, here I am! Exciting times ahead, bolstered by the chance of new adventures, shared experiences and plenty more new stuff to learn!

From graphic and packaging design, through to logo and website creation (like this one), this diversity and the need to challenge myself have been key drivers in helping to broaden my skill base and keeping my passion for design strong.

The rest as they say, is history.

If you like the style of my work, perhaps I could help on your next project?
