"Hello...My name is Mark and I'll be your graphic designer."

 

MARK HAZEL

GRAPHIC DESIGNER

I am a veteran of developing and managing brand creative for Consumer Packaged Goods. Located in the historic Stutz Art Center building in downtown Indianapolis, my studio collaborates with businesses to create design which offers meaningful communication to the consumer, and increases brand value.

 

I am fluent in package manufacturing and if needed I can work closely with printers, decorators, bottle manufacturers, and packaging engineers to manage design from creation through production.

 

I am committed to staying current with trending design and regularly attend industry events such as F.U.S.E., PackExpo, Design March Iceland, PRINT and Cosmoprof. Tap me on the shoulder if you run into me and I'll buy you a beer.

 

After graduation from the Herron School of Art, I worked as a designer in various agencies and privately held companies. My path from Junior Artist to Senior Designer, Art Director to Creative Manager and finally as a Creative Department Head, lead me to open my own studio in 2011.

 

I am a member of the American Institute of Graphic Arts. I drink copious amounts of iced coffee, love all things Nordic and yes, bad kerning does keep me up at night.

A FEW [GUSHING] REVIEWS FROM CLIENTS

"Mark is an exceptional designer and a great communicator. Mark designed a new packaging range for us, and the look will stay current for years to come. Mark thinks so much bigger than 'just design' - he has weaved a story into our packaging for us... I love the way he works and appreciated being part of his process. Can't wait to work with him again."

 

-  A. Muir from New Zealand

"Mark is crazy talented. I feel so fortunate to have found him...you don't find talent like this everyday."

 

- J. Pearson from Minneapolis, Minnesota

"We found our guy! Mark took our existing labels/graphics/branding and created a new, professional, retail-ready replacement. His background is broad, he is professionally candid, a great listener with a fantastic vision for quality. Mark made our mediocre brand into something we're very proud of now - he won't disappoint!"

 

-  J. Holloway from Tampa, Florida

"Mark produces excellent work that's smart and tight. He's forever on my call list"

 

- R. Gunnarsdóttir from Reykjavik, Iceland

"Mark is a true professional and a real artist. He is very responsive, very easy to work with and goes above and beyond helping a client to find the best solution. Highly recommend to everyone and will definitely hire him again soon. Thanks Mark!"

 

-  K. Petrov from Sydney, Australia

"Mark Hazel designed a label for me that absolutely exceeded expectations. My manufacturer said it was one of the best labels he had ever seen (and he has been in the business for over 30 years). Mark did a great job at understanding my product ... There are many good designers but I would say Mark Hazel is world class.

VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED ... 11 out of 10 stars."

 

-  T. Spencer from Salt Lake City, Utah

"I cannot say enough good things about Mark! You will not regret working with him. He is very honest about his hours and you can always depend on his advice. He has awesome contacts in the industry and we could not have done our project without him!""
