Why it matters in Durham
Custom illustrations for a Durham business has to work in the context of a Triangle university and healthcare city with a well-known downtown food scene.

LocalHank delivers the work online, and a real person reviews every order.
In Durham, with a Triangle university and healthcare city with a well-known downtown food scene, a homemade logo is easy to spot. Clean design helps you hold your own around Downtown and on a phone screen.

Hank's tip: Send three examples you like, even if they are not in your industry. That is more useful than 'make it modern' for a Durham shop.
Service area: Durham businesses in the west end, the east side, and Downtown, plus nearby communities such as Hillsborough, Raleigh, and Cary. All work is delivered online, so there is no office visit.
