Graphic Design Company in Chennai
Graphic designers for Chennai businesses. Social creative in Tamil and English, product and industrial collateral, packaging, and print files your local printer accepts first time.
Design for Chennai's industrial, consumer, and bilingual audiences
Chennai design work spans two quite different worlds. On one side, manufacturers and industrial suppliers around Ambattur and Oragadam needing technical catalogues, spec sheets, exhibition graphics, and dealer collateral, where accuracy matters more than flair and a wrong dimension on a spec sheet is a real problem. On the other, consumer brands and retail across T. Nagar and Nungambakkam running social and campaign creative, very often in Tamil as well as English.
We handle both, on retainers with a named designer and a contractual turnaround. Bilingual creative is treated properly rather than as an afterthought: Tamil text is set with attention to line length and weight rather than dropped into a layout built for English, which is why so much bilingual social work looks unbalanced. Print files go out ready for Chennai printers, in CMYK with bleed and outlined type, including Tamil text that vendors may not have the font for.
Graphic design work we do for Chennai businesses
Tamil and English social sets where the Tamil is laid out properly rather than dropped into an English layout.
Spec sheets, product catalogues, and dealer material for Ambattur and Oragadam manufacturers.
Dielines, FSSAI and statutory panels, and print-ready CMYK artwork with bilingual copy where required.
Booth, backdrop, and standee artwork at correct scale for Chennai Trade Centre and industry expos.
Editable decks that stay on-brand after your team edits a slide before the meeting.
Meta and Google variants in both languages, built for testing rather than for the review meeting.
How we work with Chennai teams
- A named designer stays on the account and learns the brand, so briefs shorten and quality rises across the retainer.
- Bilingual layouts are designed rather than adapted, because Tamil text set into an English layout is what makes most bilingual creative look unbalanced.
- Contractual turnaround rather than best effort: social creative in 48 hours, campaign and collateral sets in three to five working days.
- Technical accuracy on industrial collateral. We check dimensions and specifications against source rather than retyping them from a previous PDF.
- Print files pass first time, in CMYK with bleed and outlined type, including Tamil text outlined so vendors cannot substitute a font.
- Editable source files handed over monthly, so ending a retainer never means losing your artwork.
Chennai graphic design pricing
Most Chennai clients take a retainer because volume is continuous and a designer who knows your products is faster than briefing a new one each month. Bilingual output carries a modest premium because it is genuinely more layout work.
FAQs from Chennai graphic design clients
Do you work on retainer or per project?
Both, though most Chennai clients settle on a retainer. Social-only at fifteen to twenty pieces a month is ₹20-35K with 48-hour turnaround, and a bilingual Tamil and English version of that is ₹30-50K. A full retainer covering social, ads, and collateral runs ₹40-75K. Catalogues, packaging, and exhibition packages are usually quoted per project.
Why does bilingual creative cost more?
Because it is more layout work rather than more typing. Tamil text usually runs longer than the English it carries and has different optical weight, so a layout built for English and then filled with Tamil looks unbalanced and often overflows. Doing it properly means designing the layout to accommodate both from the start, checking line breaks in Tamil specifically, and sometimes adjusting hierarchy so the two versions carry equal presence.
Can you handle technical catalogues and spec sheets?
Yes, and it is a large share of our Chennai work. Industrial collateral lives or dies on accuracy, so we work from your source data rather than retyping from a previous PDF, flag inconsistencies we find rather than reproducing them, and set up master templates so adding a product later does not require redesigning the whole catalogue. Dimension drawings and tables are built to be updated rather than redrawn.
Will print files work with our Chennai printer?
That is the part we are strict about. Artwork goes out in CMYK with correct bleed and crop marks, images at 300 dpi, and all type outlined, which matters especially for Tamil because vendors frequently lack the font and a substitution can produce genuinely incorrect letterforms rather than merely different ones. We will also speak to your printer directly about their preferred setup.
Do you handle exhibition and trade show graphics?
Yes, and the scale specifics catch people out. Booth backdrops need artwork at a fraction of final size with the right resolution multiplier, each fabricator wants files set up their own way, and anything placed below about a metre disappears behind a table. We work to your fabricator's spec sheet for Chennai Trade Centre or wherever the show is, rather than sending a print PDF and hoping it scales.
Who owns the design files?
You do, handed over monthly rather than held as leverage. If the retainer ends you keep every editable file, organised and named properly. We have taken over several Chennai accounts where the previous designer held the source files or stopped responding, and it is not a position we are willing to put a client in.
