02Overview
Print, social and decks that match.
Who it's for
- Tour operators and hotels with a season's worth of brochures, menus and signage to produce
- NGOs and CSOs with an annual report, a donor deck or a campaign due
- Shops and cafés that post on Facebook and Instagram every week and want it to look like one business
Bhutan is a small market, so the same logo ends up on a brochure at the Paro tshechu, a Facebook post the same afternoon and a donor deck by Friday. When each is made by a different person, the business looks like 3 businesses. Graphic design here means one hand, one set of rules, and files that print right the first time.
What this looks like
Print: brochures, menus, tariff sheets, banners, annual reports, a backdrop for a launch at the Clock Tower. We set them up at the right size, in CMYK, with bleed, and talk to your printer before the press runs.
Social: templates for Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp status that your own team can fill in on a phone. A festival announcement should not need a designer.
Decks: pitch decks for investors, boards and donors. Fewer words per slide, real figures set as figures, and a version that survives being opened in PowerPoint on someone else’s laptop.
Everything comes back in 2 forms: the final PDF or PNG, and the source file, so you are never locked in.
How we work
Send the text, the pictures and the deadline on WhatsApp. We reply with what is missing and a fixed price. The first draft arrives in a day or two as a PDF you can mark up with your thumb. 2 rounds of changes are included, which is usually one more than needed.
Before anything goes to print, we read it once more for dates, prices and phone numbers. It is the cheapest mistake to catch and the most expensive to reprint.
What it costs
From Nu. 2,500 for a single piece such as an A4 flyer or a one-page tariff. A social template set is around Nu. 6,000. A 15-slide deck from Nu. 8,000. Annual reports are quoted by page count. Paid in Nu. by mBoB or bank transfer, in full on delivery for small jobs.
If the piece is for a tender or a donor and the deadline is tomorrow, say so. We have done it before.

06FAQ
Questions people ask first.
01 Can you design in Dzongkha?
Yes, as long as you supply the Dzongkha text. We set it in a Unicode Tibetan-script font, check the line breaks with you and export it as outlines so the printer cannot swap the font.
02 Do you handle the printing in Thimphu?
We brief the printer, send print-ready files and check the proof with you. You pay the press directly, so you are not paying us a margin on paper. We work regularly with presses in Thimphu and Phuentsholing.
03 We post on Facebook daily. Can you make that cheaper than one-off posts?
Yes. We build a set of templates in Canva or Figma, sized for Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp status, and show your team how to fill them in. After that you only pay us for new formats.
04 How do we pay for small jobs?
In Nu. by mBoB or BoB transfer, in full when the final files are sent. For jobs under Nu. 5,000 there is no deposit. Clients abroad pay in US$ by card or bank transfer.
