Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Health Care (Australian Government)
“I have worked with James Armstrong since 2018. James has designed many key corporate documents for the Commission including the Clinical Care Standards, case studies, fact sheets, posters and reports. He has worked across the many different divisions within the Commission creating branding, logos and icons, as well as visual assets such as infographics and graphs. He is adept at understanding and creating specific content for our different target audiences — clinicians, health service organisations and consumers. James is a very skilled and experienced designer. He creates designs that are always on brief, are easy for people to read, and are visually engaging. He has an eye for detail and … is highly reliable, efficient and organised. I highly recommend him.” — Graphic Design Manager*
