Graphics
About the project
Background
While working as a web development intern at BRB Digital, I also took on graphic design work for the company's Google My Business post graphics — designing for BRB Digital itself and two of its clients, Chauhan Travel Service and ReVik.
Process
The idea behind each design was the same: communicate the company's service through the visual itself, and use that visual to support and strengthen the heading rather than just decorate it. Rather than treating the graphic as decoration around the text, I approached every layout as a way to make the image and the headline reinforce each other — so the post would stand out and read clearly at a glance, even in a crowded social feed.
Reflection
Going into this, I had little formal graphic design experience — my role was web development, and design was something I picked up along the way. My early attempts at the GMB graphics reflected that; the headings didn't stand out the way they needed to, and the visuals often sat next to the message instead of reinforcing it.
With time, and a lot of guidance from my seniors at the office, that started to change. They walked me through design techniques I hadn't considered — how to use contrast, placement, and visual hierarchy to make a heading pull focus, and how to build a graphic that actually communicates the service rather than just illustrating it. The biggest shift for me was learning to treat the heading and the visual as one unit rather than two separate elements — asking not just "does this look good" but "does this make the message land faster."
By the end, I could see the difference in my own output — designs that were more deliberate, more legible at a glance, and more aligned with what the client actually needed to say. It was a good reminder that design skill isn't just talent, it's built through iteration and feedback.
