Case Studie
How I Improved Instagram Poster Designs for Two Brands
Project: Social Media Graphic Design
Brands: Alchemy and 123 Pizza
Platform: Instagram
Service: Promotional Posters and Social Media Creatives
My Role: Graphic Designer
Project Overview
Good design helps a business make a strong first impression. On Instagram, a poster needs to catch attention, show the main message, and present the brand in a professional way.
I worked on graphic design for Alchemy and 123 Pizza to improve the quality of their Instagram posters. Before my involvement, both brands needed stronger visual designs to present their content more effectively.
My goal was simple: create better posters, improve the way each brand presents itself, and make its Instagram content look more professional.
This project gave me the chance to use my graphic design skills on real business needs, not just sample designs.
The Challenge: Making Instagram Content Look Better
Before I started designing, the brands needed more attractive and well-planned posters.
The main problems were:
The posters needed a stronger visual style.
Some designs needed better layouts and text placement.
Product and promotional messages needed to stand out more clearly.
The overall look of the Instagram content needed improvement.
A poster is not just a picture with text. The colours, images, fonts, and layout all work together to show the message. When these parts are not planned well, a good offer or product may not get the attention it deserves.
I focused on solving these design problems through better visual choices.
My Design Approach
I did not use one design style for both brands. Each business needed creative work that suited its products and identity.
1. Better Layout and Visual Balance
I improved how text, images, and other design elements were placed in each poster. This helped make the content look more organised and easier to understand.
2. Clear Text and Typography
I focused on font choices, text size, spacing, and readability. The main message needed to be easy to notice, even when people viewed the poster on a mobile phone.
3. Colours and Visual Appeal
I used colours and visual elements that suited the design and helped the main content stand out. My aim was to create posters that looked clean, attractive, and professional.
4. Designs Made for Instagram
I created social media creatives with Instagram viewing in mind. Each poster needed to present its message clearly and fit the way people browse content on their phones.
Project 1: Alchemy — Building a Stronger Visual Identity
For Alchemy, I focused on improving the visual quality of its promotional posters.
I worked on the layout, typography, colours, and overall design to give the content a more polished appearance. I also paid attention to how each design presented the brand, so the posters felt suitable for its style.
The aim was to move away from weak-looking promotional graphics and create more professional Instagram content.
The aim was to move away from weak-looking promotional graphics and create more professional Instagram content.
My focus for Alchemy:
Cleaner poster layouts
Better text placement and readability
More balanced colours and images
A more professional presentation on Instagram
The result was a stronger visual presentation through the designs I created.
The Results: Better Visual Presentation
The main result of this project was an improvement in the quality and presentation of the posters I designed for both brands.
The work focused on four areas:
Design quality: More polished and carefully planned promotional graphics.
Readability: Clearer text placement and better visual organisation.
Brand presentation: Creative styles suited to Alchemy and 123 Pizza.
Instagram content: Professional-looking posters designed for social media.
These are visual improvements, not a claim that sales or Instagram engagement increased. Those results would need to be confirmed through business records or Instagram Insights.
What I Learned From These Projects
Working with Alchemy and 123 Pizza helped me understand that graphic design is about more than making something look good.
A good social media poster needs to communicate the right message, fit the brand, and work well on a small screen. It should help people understand what the business offers without making the design confusing.
I applied these ideas to both projects and learned how to adjust my design choices to suit different business needs.
Why Graphic Design Matters for Businesses
People often see a business’s social media content before they visit its website or contact the business.
Professional graphic design can help a business:
Present products and offers clearly.
Build a consistent visual style.
Make social media content look more professional.
Communicate important information more easily.
Create a stronger first impression.
Design alone cannot guarantee more customers or sales. But clear, well-planned visuals can help a business present its products and services in a better way.
