Every designer has go-to resources that spark creativity and help bring ideas to life. For me, SE2’s graphic designer, the key is balancing discovery with the right digital tools. Browsing top rebrands, unique color combinations, and storytelling campaigns sharpens my design eye and keeps me inspired.
Here’s a look at my creative toolkit:
1. Behance
Behance showcases design solutions from freelancers and agencies worldwide. It’s my first stop for inspiration—whether I’m seeking visuals or practical resources like free mockups and fonts. It’s a global gallery of creativity.
2. TypeWolf
When selecting fonts, TypeWolf helps me find the perfect type pairing. From classic choices to the latest in typography, it offers examples that capture the character and tone of any project.
3. Envato Elements
Envato Elements provides everything from illustrations to high-quality stock photos. Our SE2 subscription covers a huge range of licensed materials, making it easy to find what I need to bring a concept to life.
4. Mr. Mockup
Mockups help present designs in real-world settings. Mr. Mockup offers a variety of templates that give clients a vivid preview of the final result, enhancing their connection to the project.
Connect with Other Creatives
In-person events, like those by Creative Mornings, create opportunities to meet other creatives, exchange ideas, and discover even more resources.
These tools keep my work sharp and inspired. They make the creative process more dynamic and connect me to a community of designers who enrich my work every day. Whether through digital platforms or in-person networking, staying inspired is all about finding—and sharing—the right resources.
