I'm Dan Freebairn, a designer building brands, artwork and content for the worlds of golf, streetwear and sneakers.

SCROLL

I create work that people connect with. Clean, considered and instantly recognisable, whether it's a full brand identity, a one-off illustration or a tee on someone's back.

What started as a sneaker illustration project that grew a global following, turned into a career working with some of the biggest brands in the world. Over the past decade I've created artwork, campaigns and products for adidas, Puma, Highsnobiety, Stormzy, Takomo, and more. Recently I've managed full brand builds like the Fore Brothers rebrand, covering identity, apparel design and YouTube assets. These days my work mostly sits where my obsessions do: golf, streetwear and sneakers… but good ideas don't stay in one lane, and the best briefs are the ones I haven't seen yet. Let's work together.

TRUSTED BY AND DESIGNED FOR

TRUSTED BY AND DESIGNED FOR

Brand Identity

Logos, systems & rebrands

Concept -> Rollout

Full identity builds that are more than just a logo, from first sketch to final guidelines. Branding built to work everywhere it needs to, a profile picture for online presence, a printed chest graphic or signage for physical locations.

Content & Campaigns

Artwork, social & art direction

Brief -> Launch

Content and graphics for brands that live online. YouTube channel art, campaign artwork and social creative, through to static ads and email design.

Apparel & Product

Clothing, footwear & merch

Idea -> Production

Design that ends up on real products. I take apparel from initial concept through sampling, tech packs and production. Full seasonal collections or limited-edition capsules, a single graphic for print, or bespoke product developed at factory level.

Brand Growth

E-commerce, email & drops

Strategy -> Sale

The bit most designers never touch. Making the brand sell. I've run Shopify storefronts, email marketing and product drops. So alongside the creative, I can consult on brand strategy, product rollout and conversion optimisation.
