Freelance Web Designer (Student or Recent Grad)
Acid House Designs
I’m looking for a bold, creative web designer – ideally a UK-based student or recent grad – to help bring my new interior design studio to life online. The studio is called Acid House Designs, and it’s anything but beige. Think rave flyers, punk zines, and DIY rebellion – colourful, cheeky, loud, and personality-packed. This isn’t a clean, minimal Squarespace clone — the goal is a site that stops people in their tracks. This is a paid freelance role, but I want to be upfront: I’m launching the business solo, so while I’m not paying slave wages, the rate will be lower than what you'd charge a commercial client or agency. That’s why I’m hoping to collaborate with someone earlier in their career who’s excited to help build something fun, expressive and truly distinctive. What I can offer: – A standout portfolio piece that’s wildly different from the norm – Full creative credit and visibility – Creative freedom and input from the start – A fun, collaborative process (not just a handover of wireframes) – Real potential for future, properly paid work if this helps get me noticed The website will feature animation, a custom mascot, interactive elements, and anti-beige humour (try picking beige and you’ll trigger alarms). I’ve got strong branding and a clear vision – I just need the right designer to bring it to life technically and visually. I’m based in Edinburgh, so if you’re local that’s a bonus – we could meet and collaborate in person – but I’m open to working remotely with anyone based in the UK.

PLATFORM: Early Career Artist Residencies 2026/2027
Edinburgh Art Festival
PLATFORM is a programme of two paid 18-month residencies for early career artists based in Scotland, working in any medium, supporting them to develop work in a flexible way. Artists will work with EAF for an equivalent of ~3 days per month for 18 months, presenting work as part of EAF27 (August 2027). As well as a £10,000 artist fee and additional production/access/support budget, PLATFORM includes external mentorship, support from the EAF team, and a month-long in-person residency at the Hugo Burge Foundation in the Borders. One residency space is reserved for a BPOC artist, reflecting the underrepresentation of BPOC artists in solo exhibitions and shows in Scotland, as well as the ways race often intersects with class and gender marginalisation in the arts.
