Gabor Tatrai
Graphic designer
London, United KingdomI’ve been a graphic designer for more than 15 years. I was 20 when I fell in love with graphic design, and 23 when I started my first design studio. My enthusiasm for graphic design has just grown ever since then with a continuous feel of need to expand my knowledge in all fields related to design. I’m a highly creative and emphatic person, which helps me a lot to see problems through my clients’ and users’ eyes. These essential skills have made me a good UX designer over the years.
I have a pretty solid knowledge and huge experience in designing websites, online and offine advertising materials, corporate identities, branding projects, event branding jobs, animations and social media presence.
I’m mainly focusing on user experience with the clever use of rich visual elements. I feel quite fortunate for having the opportunity to make some smashing designs for lots of exciting small and big companies, and agencies, including:
BMW Hungary, Tesco, T-Mobile, T-Systems, Telekom, Samsung, HP,Nestle,Renault,LG,Nivea,Opel,Reebok, Adidas, Cote d’Or, TV2 (leading Hungarian TV channel), MTV (Hungarian National Television), Hunguest Hotels (Hungary’s leading hotel chain), Budapest Film (Hungary’s leading movie distributor), Isobar Hungary (Hungary’s leading creative and media agency), Compaq, EON Hungary.

Freelance Graphic Designer
Graphic designer
In 2014, I moved to London as I wanted to challenge myself and be inspired of the rich visual culture of this exciting city.
Clients: Mini Bar Budapest, Sky Bar Budapest, Take Note Ltd. - I have had the chance to work for this extremely friendly and open minded company, who wanted to redefine their branding from the ground-up. I did a thorough brand and competitor analysis before designing their logo, which was the very foundation of their new branding.
I also helped them to design their website and backend portal system with UX best practices in mind - starting with wireframing through prototyping, to the final UI designs.
