Independent Designer

I design brands, websites and marketing for B2B and professional services.

Identity, websites and landing pages, decks and reports, social and email templates, designed and built by me. You work with me directly, whether that’s a single project, ongoing support, or looking after all of your design full-time.

What I design, and build.

One designer who can look after all of it: a single project, ongoing work, or full-time.

Brand identity

Logo, typography, colour and guidelines: a system your team can actually use, not a logo on its own.

Website design & development

New sites, redesigns and migrations, designed and built by the same person, so the finished site still looks like the design.

I've hired Riddhesh for three website projects. His pricing is fair, his English is perfect, and he responds quickly. He suggests ways to save time and money and improve results. I would and will hire him again.

Design retainer

You’ll know the price before any work begins. If your budget is tight, say so early; there’s often a smaller way to start.

White-labelSamples on request

A lot of my work carries someone else’s name.

Much of it is delivered white-label for agencies and in-house teams, so it isn’t public. Tell me what you’re planning and I’ll send the samples closest to it.

For agencies

Brand, web and email work, delivered under your name and inside your process.

6 AboutRiddhesh Thakkar
Portrait of Riddhesh Thakkar
Riddhesh ThakkarDesigner + developer

A designer who learned to build.

I started in graphic and brand design, and learned to code because good decisions kept getting lost between the design and the finished site. Now both happen in one place.

I work with marketing leads, founders and agencies, mostly in healthcare, financial and M&A advisory, consulting and technical services.

How I work

7 FAQShort answers

Questions, briefly.

Who do you work with?

B2B and professional-services firms: marketing leads, founders and managing partners, mostly in healthcare, financial and M&A advisory, consulting and technical services. I also work with small marketing, PR and consulting agencies.

Do you design and build it yourself?

Yes. Design and front-end build run as one process, so what launches is what you approved. For heavier custom development or motion work I bring in developers and editors I trust, and you still deal with me.

Which platforms do you work with?

Websites on WordPress, Webflow, Wix or custom code. Email templates for Mailchimp, Klaviyo, Beehiiv or hand-coded HTML.

Can you work with our existing brand?

Yes. I work inside your guidelines. If the brand needs tightening, I’ll say so and quote it separately.

How does pricing work?

A fixed price for a defined scope, or a monthly retainer for ongoing work. Websites start from $500, brand and marketing design from $150, email templates from $120 and the retainer from $900 a month. You get the number in writing before anything starts.

What happens after launch?

Your team takes over with a documented handover, or I stay on for updates, new pages and the design work around them.

Can you work with us full-time?

Yes. If you need someone to look after all of your design, I can work as your dedicated designer, full-time and as part of your team. We’d talk through hours, tools and how your team works before agreeing anything.

Can we start with something small?

Yes. If you’d like to see how I work before a bigger project, we can agree a small, clearly defined test piece first, such as one page section or a single template. What it covers is agreed before I start, so you can judge the fit without committing to more.

What if I’m not sure what I need?

That’s common, and a good reason to talk. Tell me what you’re trying to fix or launch, and I’ll suggest what would help, what it might involve and roughly what it would cost. There’s no obligation to go ahead.

Where are you based?

Surat, India. I work remotely with clients worldwide, and intro calls are booked at a time that suits you through the scheduling link.

Have something in mind?

A website, a rebrand, an email template, or regular design help. It doesn’t need to be fully worked out. A 30-minute call is the easiest way to talk it through, or send a few lines here.
