About
Nick Bayly
I help brands, projects, and businesses gain a competitive advantage in
the connected world as they grow, launch products and build enduring
relationships with their communities.
Strategy
Whether a company is evolving or new to the industry, I work with projects of all sizes to clarify their purpose, find their voice, understand their customers and clearly define their goals / strategies.
Design
I build brands, products and video games that inspire. Design is about expressing a company’s promise, personality and values, building a comprehensive and consistent experience that resonates with customers and nurtures lasting relationships
User Experience Design
Navigating the digital design world can be complicated. I help mediate the space between users and the information they need by building intuitive, user-centric designs that engage, delight and communicate clearly on all devices and platforms. I align the goals of your project to the needs of your customers
About Me
After graduating with a Bachelor of Honors in Visual Studies from the University of Pretoria, I’ve spent the last 6 years working as a digital designer in the technology, sports, and gaming sectors.
Having worked in so many fields over the years, I've fulfilled the roles of producer, Branding/Communications, UI/UX Design, Game/Mechanic Design, Creative Direction, and Project Management
These days my time is spent researching, designing, prototyping, and writing. I love empowering projects through high-impact work and visually focused designs.
Out of the office you’ll find me training my design skills, reading about history, assisting entrepreneurs, following current affairs while finding some time to write, play, and enjoy it all.
I’ve spent the past 9 years working as a designer primarily in the areas of branding/communications, UI/UX design, creative direction, business development, web design, and project management.
These days my time is spent researching, designing, prototyping, and writing. I love empowering projects through high-impact work and visually focused designs.
Digital
Designer
Good design is more than aesthetics — it’s a powerful tool that builds trust, captures attention, and drives results. As a digital designer, I create visuals and experiences that help businesses stand out, connect with their audience, and grow with confidence.
User Experience Designer
I believe user experience is at the heart of all successful systems. From conceptualization through to actualization, I design interfaces and experiences that engage and resonate with its users; ensuring user satisfaction and ultimately enhancing the growth of these systems.
Creative
Director
With experience across multiple disciplines, I am able to work holistically on the input and output of projects, engaging with multiple departments and keeping fellow team members motivated and aligned to project goals with a cohesive vision.
