We had Jon build our first website to match with our existing branding. We were so pleased with the result it looks professional and matches perfect to our branding. We even had him to make some business cards too.

Jon is very easy to get on with and provided an excellent website for the budget we had at the time. For start up or relatively new companies, Jon is a god send. What he produced for us on a low budget was excellent and I can't recommend him highly enough.

Jon was extremely patient with me in creating my perfect website. Im not the best with computers but he has helped me and given me confidence every step of the way, I couldn't ask for a better web designer. Anything I felt that wasn't quiet right, Jon tweaked until I was happy. His customer service, patience, response time and over all demeanour is second to none. Thanks again Jon

Jon did a fabulous job on our website. We shopped around quite a bit before settling on him. The quality of the websites featured on his portfolio really stood out. He was very responsive throughout the process always addressing any queries we had or making any adjustments within a reasonable timeframe. We were very pleased with the overall outcome and the value for money proposition was fantastic. We cannot recommend him enough.

Jon has been involved with my choir's website for several years and recently was hugely helpful in updating and modernising it to a great standard. Jon has always been patient with my queries, carried out requests and made good suggestions for us to consider. On behalf of the choir- many thanks Jon and we look forward to continuing to work with you!

The Trust is delighted that the leaflet has done so much to raise the profile of the Community Boat project. It has been an excellent marketing tool. Thank you for your attention to detail and the care that you took with the design of the trail leaflet. We sent you the JPEGs and Word files and you turned them into this beautiful piece of work that we are very proud to give to people. I would not hesitate to recommend Jonathan Hurley Design to anyone looking for a reliable and supportive graphic designer. If, like us, you are new to this sort of project, they will guide you through each stage of the design process.

Despite the short notice we gave you, you not only managed to design our general catalogue, which we are extremely pleased with, but also the posters for the exhibition stand. Furthermore, we took onboard your idea of using the shell clad type graphic scheme on the back wall of the stand which gave us a seamless full wall graphic that clearly displayed our products and the message we wanted to get across.
I was really pleased with the mixed effect of the individual posters on the side walls in combination with the seamless full back wall graphic and it also was well received by my joint venture partner from Oman who was impressed with my creativity. We also received a number of positive comments from other exhibitors and more importantly from prospective end customers. Once again, many thanks and we will be in touch again when we need some more work doing.

We have worked with Jonathan in the past and were very pleased to work in partnership with him again on this multimedia project for our client. Jonathan's design experience and industry contacts helped us to efficiently coordinate the design, printing and manufacture of bespoke large format interpretation panels, leaflets, online content and Welsh translation. We look forward to working with him again in the future.

Jon is extremely pleasant to work with has this unique talent in grasping our requirements in an instant. His creativity bowls us over each time we work with him. He thinks outside of the box when it comes to design whilst preserving our brand and style. We will continue to work with Jon as we cannot fault his work highly recommended.

The new web site has been up and running for two weeks now and I must say it is a delight to manage, adding content and updating could not be easier and I have had some great feedback on how good the site looks. Many thanks to you and the team at Jonathan Hurley Design
Carl Waters
I expected a quality product, but the final result is much greater than I anticipated. The website has created quite a buzz around the office with very positive comments from staff and customers alike. It has a quality feel that best represents our company ethos. You have turned a vague brief into a comprehensive success and I would therefore wholeheartedly recommend your services to others.
Reuben Hamon
Jon helped us to create our website in a very short time window prior to a public event we were sponsoring. He came to meet us at our office and talked over some design ideas. It was a very easy process. His work rate and attention to detail made the site come to life quickly and to a high standard. Were very happy with our new website and we are now able to take over the reins and add articles ourselves. We can highly recommend Jonathan Hurley Graphic Design Solutions.
