about steve

Hi there. My name is Steve Richards and I am a graphic designer and web professional based in the UK.

I create designs to suit the business objectives of the client. I implement designs using clean HTML/CSS code.

I have been working in a freelance capacity, as Creative Ape, since 2005, and prior to that spent six years as a designer for London-based agency TWWC.

When I'm not working I like to spend time with my beautiful wife and daughter. Or I go running.
