Hello, I'm Brett

I'm a freelance graphic designer based in the UK, specialising in book design, publication layout and long-form editorial projects.

With over 15 years’ experience across publishing, nonprofit, cultural and communications sectors, I help clients bring clarity and character to their printed and digital materials. Whether I’m designing a novel, an annual report or a literary magazine, my approach is rooted in thoughtful typography, clean structure and narrative sensitivity.

I’ve worked with independent publishers, national charities, cultural institutions and creative organisations — designing everything from fiction covers and multi-author anthologies to donor communications and policy reports. I’m also an award-winning book designer, with my cover (along with co-designer Rosetta Mills) for Apple & Knife (Brow Books) recognised by the Australian Book Designers Association.

What sets my work apart is a calm, collaborative process and an attention to detail from concept to final output. I often manage full production workflows — including typesetting, print setup, and supplier liaison — and I bring experience in both traditional and digital publishing environments.

Services include:

• Book cover design
• Typesetting & interior layout
• Publication design (reports, journals, magazines)
• Print-ready artwork & production management
• Brand-aligned editorial design for nonprofits and publishers
• plus a wide range of other design and marketing services

Check out my showreel and projects for some examples of my work. I'm based in Scotland and work with clients across the UK and internationally. If you’re a publisher, editor, author, or organisation looking to elevate your next publication, I’d love to hear from you: hello@brettweekes.com
