what a graphic designer
in Wien does for you

A graphic designer in Vienna designs everything your company shows to the outside world that is not the website: ads, flyers, brochures, presentations, signage, trade show stands, social media templates. The difference to a brand agency is the occasion. You do not come to us because you are building a brand, but because something has to be finished next week and it should look like your company.

files that get through

DRUCK // REINZEICHNUNG

A brochure is no use if the print shop sends it back. We deliver to PDF/X-4 with bleed, embedded fonts and the right colour profile, and talk to your print shop directly when needed. That saves you the round where everyone points at everyone else.

templates instead of one-offs

VORLAGEN // TEMPLATES

If the same kind of ad is needed every month, we design it properly once and set up a template your team can fill in themselves. You pay for the design once instead of twelve times, and the look stays consistent anyway.

the same picture everywhere

DIGITAL // PRINT

We build websites too, so we think print and screen together. What is on the folder matches the landing page behind it, and the photos are there in the right resolution for both. With separate suppliers, exactly that regularly drifts apart.

what graphic design
in Wien costs

A single job starts at 290€, for example an ad, a flyer or a template. Anyone who needs something regularly is better off with a monthly allowance from 590€, because then no quote is needed for every small thing. Pure artwork, meaning the design already exists and only the print file gets rejected, starts at 190€. We name the fixed price before we start, not after.

Need a brand first?

This page is for companies that already have their visual identity. If you are starting from zero, meaning logo, colours and typeface still have to be created, branding is the better place for you. To the brand packages from 850€

Bernhard Müllauer, founder of creatingfaces and your contact for the project
Your contact

bernhard müllauer

I write the quote, I design, I build. You do not get an account manager standing between you and the work, you talk to the same person from the first question until after launch.

If something does not make sense, I say so, even when that makes the project smaller. In the long run that is more pleasant for both sides. In Vienna I am happy to drop by with paper samples, that is faster than any video call.

Process

how an idea turns
into a print file

Design does not get better by polishing one draft longer, it gets better by trying many directions early and throwing most of them away. That is why the first days are the wildest and the last ones the calmest. A single job is usually done within a week, a bigger piece in two to three.

Options per phase
  1. 01

    Briefing

    Everything is still open. We ask what it is for, who sees it and what it has to do.

  2. 02

    Sketches

    Many rough directions, fast and cheap. This phase is for discarding, not refining.

  3. 03

    Drafts

    Two or three directions get worked out far enough that you can judge them.

  4. 04

    Refinement

    One direction remains. Now it is about spacing, type sizes and details.

  5. 05

    Artwork

    One result, in every format, ready to print. Nothing gets designed here any more, only checked.

Qualitative view of our process, without absolute values

Vienna in detail

the only place
we actually sit

On our pages for Graz, Linz or Salzburg we say openly that we work from Vienna. Here it is different. Our office is in Kirchstetterngasse in Ottakring, and for design work that makes more of a difference than for a website. You do not judge paper samples, colour swatches and proofs in a video call, you judge them by holding them.

paper looks different on screen

The same grey looks cool on coated paper and warm on uncoated. If a brochure is meant to be genuinely good, we put samples on the table and decide together. That takes twenty minutes and prevents a print run nobody likes.

vienna print shops have their own minds

Every print shop has different preferences for bleed, colour profile and delivery. We have worked with Vienna businesses for years and set the files up the way your print shop wants them. If you do not have one yet, we recommend one, without commission.

which file you
need for what

The most common reason a file comes back from the print shop is the wrong format. You always get every variant from us at once, so you never have to ask again. You can use this overview even if you have the design made elsewhere.

Logo on the websiteSVGScales without loss to poster size and usually weighs only a few kilobytes.
Logo in Word and PowerPointPNGWith a transparent background and at least 1,000 pixels wide, otherwise it blurs when enlarged.
Photos on the websiteWebPNoticeably smaller than JPG at the same quality. Smaller images mean faster loading, which means better rankings.
Social mediaPNG / JPGEvery channel has its own pixel dimensions. A post in the wrong format gets cropped, usually exactly where the text sits.
Flyer, ad, posterPDF/X-43 mm bleed all round, fonts embedded, colour profile ISO Coated v2. Any print shop takes it without asking questions.
Photos in printTIFF / PDF300 dpi at final size and CMYK instead of RGB. A phone photo is fine for screen, usually not for an A4 ad.
Logo for print shopsPDF / EPSAs a vector with fonts converted to outlines. That way it works on a business card and on a company van alike.

why creatingfaces
and not the next supplier

Because you talk to the same person who builds the file. At larger agencies an account manager sits between you and the designer, and every correction travels through translation twice. With us you say what should change, and it changes. On top of that we build websites and do search engine optimization. If your brochure points to a page that does not exist yet, we can handle both in one go.

[ FAQ ]

A single job starts at 290€, for example an ad, a flyer or a template. Anyone who needs something regularly is better off with a monthly allowance from 590€, because then no separate quote is needed for every small thing. Pure artwork, meaning the design already exists and only the print file gets rejected, starts at 190€. We always name the fixed price before we start.

Only partly, and we would rather say so openly. This page is aimed at companies that want to commission design work. We are a small team and rarely advertise positions. If you would still like to introduce yourself, send us an email with your portfolio to team@creatingfaces.at, we look at every submission.

You see the first draft after three to five working days. A single piece like an ad or a flyer is usually finished within a week, something larger like a multi-page brochure takes two to three weeks. If it is urgent, tell us the deadline at the very start and we will tell you honestly whether it is doable.

Yes, always. You get print-ready files to PDF/X-4 with 3 mm bleed, embedded fonts and a matching colour profile, plus the web variants as PNG or WebP. If your print shop has its own requirements, we follow them and talk to them directly when needed.

Branding creates a brand from the ground up, meaning logo, colours, typeface and the rules that go with them. That starts at 850€. This page is about the ongoing application of a visual identity that already exists. If you are unsure which applies to you, just ask, we can tell you in five minutes.
