My name is Stephen Whyte. I am a front end web designer & I build stunning websites! Lets talk.

Paul Tatly is a fully qualified personal trainer, based in Belfast. As a recent graduate Paul needed an identity to enter the personal training market.

After some research I knew that the letters PTPT needed to be in a strong typeface. When I created this design, I decided to use the top of the letters as a platform for an illustration which would represent Paul's training. We had several illustrations and decided that a runner would best represent bot male and female clients.

GAA Goalkeeping Coach was set up by Liam Swift in 2010 to provide quality Goalkeeping tuition and to specialise in excellence in goalkeeping. Needing a logo to promote his service: online, on documents and on vehicles, Laim asked me to design something that would suit his needs.

I decided to design a crest as this is the most recognised symbol of any sports team. I turned the crest into a goalpost and a goalkeeper infront to symbolise the service that Liam privides.

DS Wing, a professional partnership of World Championship Dancers, needed a poster that could be used to advertise 'Dance Lessions' for a local community. As the dancing is open to all ages, I was hesitant to use a picture, as showing a picture of certain age group, could have stopped another age group from attending. This is why I decided to use a silhouette - which could represent any age.

I have used bright, attracting colours with the use of a spotlight effect to give the illusion of spotlights on a dancefloor.

Derrynoose Community Centre Committee asked me to design posters and flyers to advertise a local festival.

The challenge I faced with this design was to include all aspects of the weekend, without giving most focus onto one single event, and to show the attraction and unique'ness of each day, to make people want to attend.

Connect Telecom, based in Belfast, offers solutions across mobiles, systems, data services and landlines. I was asked to create a flyer to advertise their latest offer which stops roaming charges accross Ireland, north and south of the border.

I was provided with all information on the flyer, and asked for the images to focus on Ireland - to show it as a whole, with no network problems accross the island. I added 'network waves' to represent whole island communication and added a sunbeam background in the background, to focus the eye onto this image of Ireland.

I recently designed a wedding booklet and invitations for a bride and groom for their big day.

Asking for the design to be simple and elegant, I designed several concepts and worked each step with them before developing this final desgin. I worked with the printers on each step and each sample, picking the texture of the paper, choosing the ink for the printing and having final say on the end design.

Congratulations to Mr and Mrs McGrath on their big day.

Margaret McEwan, Psychic, contacted me to design a poster to advertise a day she was hosting in Newry, County Down. Working with her angels and spirit guides, Margaret receives clear messages and guidance for her clients.

Using an Orb for inspiration, I placed a picture of Margaret in the middle of the poster, with beams of purple light around her. Purple is a very strong colour that Margaret uses through out her print work.

Whyteline Media is a name I've decided to use for future freelance work. I felt that I needed a name to publish my work with, other than simply stating, 'Stephen Whyte'

The name White-line could strongly be used in a design form, (representing a white line) but using my own surname 'WhYte' instead of the colour whIte, Whyteline Design was born. I wanted to use two different fonts to show the use of two different words, but I linked the two together carefully, giving a nice design.

Cancer Research NI is to held a Fundraising Festival on 30th April - 1st May 2011 in Derrynoose, County Armagh. I designed this poster to help them advertise the event, highlighting the key features of the festival.

As a strong fundraiser for Cancer Research and other charities, I was happy to be asked to be involved with this event.

Cancer Research NI held a fundraising event on 2nd April 2011, titled 'The Big Fat Derryvale Wedding' in the Derryvale Inn, Derrynoose, County Armagh. I designed this poster to help them advertise the event, highlighting the key features of the night.

I used a font that could be used on wedding invitations to show the elegance of a normal wedding ceremony, and used a Western font for the pub name ontop, to show its not a typical elegant formal event - but a party to help raise money for charity.

Blue Star Healing needed a new brand for the healing centre they are opening in Lemgare, County Monaghan. The requirements for this project was: brightly coloured, seven blue stars somewhere within the logo, and the words 'healing therapies' included.

I am currently working on a website for the healing centre. Check out the latest work at: www.bluestarhealingcentre.org

PC Repairs, a small company based in Castleblayney, County Monaghan, needed flyers and advertisment materials to advertise their services. The main highlight was to show that they now sell re-furbished laptops as well as displaying clearly what they services they can offer their customers. I included a google map to show the exact location of the companys office, clearly displayed their telephone numbers and email address to make it easy for people to contact them.

Derrynoose Drama Group, a small drama production group, were asked to perform Jimmy Keary's play 'Mother Knows Best' in The Market Place Theatre in Armagh City. To promote the play and attract an audience, I was asked to create a poster that could sum up the play and include each character. Using professional photographs of the actors, I hoped to help the audience relate to the characters before the production was live on-stage.

The Armagh Cancer Research Committee raised over £25,000 holding several fundraising events accross County Armagh, in N.Ireland in the summer of 2010. One of these events was a Cancer Research Festival in Derrynoose, which I was asked to be involved in. Over a weekend several events happened, from bouncy castle partys, BBQ's and the hunt for the biggest 'Culchie!' This is the poster used to adversise the festival.

Holding a fundraising event for St.Vincent de Paul and Moving Mountains, the Armagh Rotaract Club hosted 'Blind Date Night.' I foucused on the prize and the drinks promotion to get people's attention! With a lot of text, and instructed to have a black base on the poster, I used the background to add some colour to the poster and lighten it up.

The City Salon, in Armagh City, needed a large poster to advertise the classes that would be taught in their salon. These ranged from Hair and Beauty to Holistic Therapies.

Visa Not Required was my major project in my final year studying Interactive Multimedia and Design. The website is a place to find out about various cities around Europe and North America, so I created a logo that would fit in your passport! I also created an illustration of a passport, with the nationality as a 'Global Citizen of the World.'

Space for Yourself was a university assignment for second semester of my final year. Given a client, Clare Byrne a counseler from Belfast, I was asked to create a brand. The thought behind this brand was to stand out from the crowd and be happy within yourself. In my final year, I studied brands that change and people still relate to, and tested that theory with this project.

Two Minds was another university project assigned to me. The idea behind the project was for architects and artists to be partnered together and each group given a simple basic project. (i.e. roundabout) Using eachothers skills, they were to create an artistic piece that functionally worked. My task was to create a brand. Each triangle represents an artist and an architect, the dark(er) green straight angled triange - the architect, and the lighter coloured, curvier lined triangle the artist.

After creating Philip's website, he now needed promotional material to advertise his business. This included business cards and flyers. I created several designs for Philip's Photography company, creating cards with various coloured backgrounds. Displayed here are the black and white versions. The logo was created with a design colleague Claire Douglas.

With several healing centres accross Ireland, Arthur had a lot of promotional material to print. The Aurora business cards where kept simple, with a basic front displaying the healing centre's logo and tag line. This front can be used for each specialist under the Aurora name, while the personal information will change accordingly.

Rent 2 Own Northern Ireland needed business cards for each property consultant to hand out to cutomers and agents. I have kept the front of the business card 'clean and simple', soely displaying the company logo. The back of the card contains each property consultant's contact details. The logo was created by a design colleague Claire Douglas.

Creating a brand for your company isn't just about logo design and print work. There are many different resources and products that I can personalise with your company logo. This includes, Badge printing, keyring design, magnets, mugs and much more. Contact me for more informaition on the different products.
