Delphine Richards,"Carolyn developed the cover for my collection of poetry, Marcism Today, from scratch - she was really communicative, flexible, dedicated and interested in the project from the outset. Carolyn's design is really great and she has brought my collection alive! Highly recommended and my thanks for a great job of work."
Marc Mordey,"I was extremely impressed and pleased with how Design Elements designed my book cover. They intuitively knew how to interpret my expectations. Very professional, meticulous with attention to details, efficient to produce changes to design and layout quickly - highly recommended."
Denise Greenwood,"It was a complete pleasure working with Carolyn on the covers for my US editions. She was brilliantly creative, full of ideas, yet always happy to discuss my suggestions. Her technical ability and attention to detail was amazing. Right from the start she was determined to create the perfect cover. I think the fact that four of my books are currently in the Amazon US charts shows how well she succeeded."
Helen Carey,"I knew that I needed a strong image for my new acupuncture clinic but had no clear idea of what I wanted. Carolyn not only came up with some brilliant logos but spent time and effort refining my final choice so that it was exactly what I wanted. It represents my brand perfectly and I couldn't be happier. Thanks for a job very well done"
Liz Curtis,"I was so impressed with Carolyn's approach. The experience of doing the project online and by email worked better than I expected. The first designs were varied and I found I liked elements of several of them. I have no hesitation recommending Design Elements. I felt I was in safe hands all through the process.""
Juliet Fay,"Exactly what we wanted, an excellent logo Thank you very much."
