Welcome to lsux.design! I'm Louis (Levi Aplebaunn) Salguero, a seasoned design professional with over 23 years of experience across various design disciplines, from freelance work to corporate settings.
My mission is to offer top-tier graphic, web, and UX design at competitive rates. Unlike larger studios, I operate as an individual, minimizing overhead costs while maintaining access to robust resources.
I specialize in providing graphic solutions tailored to small businesses—whether it's enhancing the image of hair salons, fitness trainers, financial brokers, or industry leaders. Each project enriches my understanding of diverse industry needs, fueling my growth as a designer.
At the heart of my services lie websites and graphic design. In an era flooded with design tools like Canva, I emphasize the pitfalls of DIY solutions: potential brand inconsistency and the misconception that cheapest is best. Design is about expertise and art direction, not just mixing and matching elements.
I streamline the design process, ensuring a seamless journey from initial consultation to the final product. My commitment is to exceed expectations and foster long-term partnerships.
If you seek thoughtful, meticulously crafted designs, you've found the right place. I prioritize quality over speed, delivering visually stunning outcomes with every project.
Let's connect on LinkedIn! I welcome connections with growth-minded individuals who share my passion for design and innovation.
