Graphic Design - Its not just about layout! Its about good design solutions to everyday issues. Creative & effective design is what your company needs, thats where I come in.


I previously worked in the corporate world but my passion was graphic design. After years of doing graphic design “unofficially” for word of mouth clients, I decided to go back to school to get a formal BA (Hons) degree in Graphic Design.


I see things differently, I have lived on three different continents, Africa, Europe and am currently residing in the USA, these opportunities have given me a different perspective. I don’t see things with a stereotypical cultural eye, I base my creations and designs on the life experiences I have had all over the world. As well as living on three continents I have travelled to over 28 different countries, the most exciting, to me being Hungary and the Czech Republic. With my experience and world travels I will assure you a great effective design! Design has the power to always be different - Never repetitive!


My name is Colette Koetsier and I am a Graphic Designer...

Fortnum & Mason Packaging Design Brief - Final Major Project

The design was for Fortnum & Mason, an upscale British retailer in London. The design brief requested packaging for three kinds of foods as well as a drink, picnic hamper and a point of sale board. The theme was of Explorer of which I chose David Livingstone. This is because he was a British citizen that explored Africa, due to my ties with both of these countries I found him to be the most obvious choice.
