LucasBright Cleaning logo designed by Daniel Hornby: gold sparkle mark and navy lettering

Behind the design

Small details.
A consistent impression.

I developed the logo, colour palette and graphic system, using navy and gold to connect every touchpoint. Clear contact details and a local focus make the next step easy, whether someone finds the business online or picks up a card.

04 / The person behind Byhorn

Hi, I'm Dan.
Let's make it
look the part.

Independent design, with a personal approach.

I’m Daniel Hornby, an independent graphic and web designer based in Cheadle. I help start-ups, sole traders and small businesses turn their ideas into websites, branding and printed materials.

My experience began in graphic design and pre-press at Sinclair International and continued through freelance projects alongside my wider career. That practical background means I think about how a design works as well as how it looks.

Based in Cheadle, I work with businesses in Stockport, Greater Manchester and the surrounding areas. Further afield? We can work together remotely, too.
