Banner design for Hotel Aloft by Marriott Aberdeen ✨

There is nothing quite like seeing your own work out in the real world. And it is even better when you can see it live, right by the entrance to Aberdeen Airport.

Thank you Michael Silva and his company Farsight for the opportunity to work on this project for Hotel Aloft by Marriott Aberdeen.

Logo was just the beginning. Here’s the full website I built for Pathways to Hope, a registered Scottish charity. Built from scratch, no templates, just code and a lot of heart.

DM me and let’s build yours.

This one really got me. I designed a logo for Pathways to Hope, a registered Scottish charity and I’m so happy with how it turned out.

Warm, meaningful and full of purpose. Exactly what they needed.

Oh and I also built their website which I’ll be showing you very soon. Stay tuned!

Two categories. Two finalist certificates. I still can’t believe it.

Design by Maria has been shortlisted for the 2026 UK Small Business Awards in both Best Website Design Business and Best Graphic Design Business.

When I started this from scratch in Aberdeen, I never imagined something like this would happen. Thank you to every single client who trusted me with their brand. This one’s for you.

New project just landed ✨

The Cave Barbershop needed a website that actually matched who they are. Sharp, established, trusted by clients across Aberdeen since 2016.

So that’s what we built. A full site with service pages, team profiles across all three locations, online booking and client reviews. Dark aesthetic, gold details, clean layout.

Proper job done. Go check it out 🖤

Dark navy. Gold details. Built for a corporate firm in Hong Kong SAR.

This is Dragon Rock Group’s brand new website and every detail was designed with purpose. From the typography to the layout, everything was created to communicate authority and precision.

This is what happens when design meets strategy. Is your website doing the same for your business?
