Testimonials

“I had such fun working with Ruth on marketing and promotional pieces for our children’s books. Ruth took my very basic concepts and brought them to life with vibrancy and playfulness. Our list is diverse, featuring books for babies up to teenagers, requiring an understanding of very different target markets. Ruth was always willing to collaborate, take risks, and try a number of avenues until landing on the perfect design.”

“For years, I’ve counted on Design Playground for so many projects; from logo design to stationery, web site creation, DVD jackets, labels & inserts, playreading posters and postcards, unique business cards… the list goes on. From retro to classical, the designs are always aligned exactly with my branding for each different purpose. As the Design Playground lead, Ruth launches in with enthusiasm, creativity and tenacity and she’s an excellent listener, learning what I want (and when) and then adding that extra flair to make it sing. Awesome!”

“Underlying Ruth Dwight's technical facility with graphic design is her ability to grasp how word and image need to be expressed to impact the intended audience and be faithful to the client's intention”.

“I came to Ruth with my original watercolour paintings, needing them to be highlighted in exciting ways for printed and website marketing materials, and she makes it happen. She consistently amazes me with dynamic layouts and fonts that complement the designs, and she navigates the technical requirements that are a mystery to me, and pulls it all together. I’m so thankful.”
