Origins
Born about five years ago mainly with an ideal of providing a great and reliable service to the community. The owner Craig, after being in the industry for over 18 years noticed that there was a vast lack of good and reliable service. Especially in Johannesburg. He found that by offering reliable, trustworthy, honest and affordable services it would assist the community as a whole in a considerable way.
The Owner
Craig started his beginnings in the Graphic Design field quite by chance as a delivery boy for a photographic company based in Centurion, Pretoria. Not long after these humble beginnings, His boss noted His interest and potential in the design field.
Retouching photo’s, scanning Negatives and designing templates for school photography became the norm. After roughly four years in the photography field, Craig moved on to bureau work. Designing corporate identity, brochures, business cards, wedding invitations and proposals on Apple allowed Him to become cross platform on a p.c. and Apple Mac based operating systems.
Experience
Moving on from there to signage He gained significant experience with Big name Brands in the industry. Doing work for companies such as Coca Cola, SAB, Unitrans and SPAR only to name a few. After gaining vast experience and knowledge with vehicle graphics, Vinyl cut letters, PVC billboards and interior shop signage He thought He would go a few steps further and start studying Web design.
In doing web design for four years a great amount of knowledge has been acquired. With the web ever evolving, becoming faster and more accessible. It is very difficult to get to a point where we can say we now know. However the experience is there and we continue to learn new things all the time. So if there is something specific you would like. We will certainly make sure we do our absolute best to make that happen.
Expansion
Craig has also launched a magazine / publishing company which is centered around advertising, marketing and branding suppliers and service providers. This gives Living Graphix a vast amount of experience and knowledge.
