Can I get my father’s daughter to replicate a design I found online?
No. While I believe that no idea is original (Mark Twain), replicating a design is plagiarism and it disrespects the original creator of the work.
If you have a design you like, my father’s daughter can reference it and create something that’s inspired by the original work. This way, your organisation will have a personalised piece of design instead of a copy.
Payment, Quotations & Donations
Do I have to pay for my designs by my father’s daughter? How much will I be expected to pay?
Yes, you do! It’s human nature to appreciate something a little more if they’ve had to pay for it. As the design studio is created to support small businesses, non-profit organisations and individuals on a lean budget, my father’s daughter.design offers payment options in coffee, houseplants, or pay-what-you-can.
If a job requires more than just coffee, houseplants, or pay-what-you-can, I will provide you a price quotation.
Can I pay more than what is quoted to me to support my father’s daughter’s work?
Sure thing! If you’re in the position to do so, it will be very much appreciated. Your ‘extras’ would help me upskill, and contribute towards the non-profits that I personally support.
Can I make a donation to my father’s daughter without commissioning any work?
Thank you for your generosity! I really appreciate it. However, I would like to ask that you consider making your donation out to one of these non-profits instead.
Why does my father’s daughter offer options to be paid in coffee, houseplants, or pay-what-you-can?
The heart behind my father’s daughter.design is to support small businesses, non-profit organisations, or individuals who appreciate good design and do not have the funds for it.
Most people are willing to pay something for good design, just not the big ask that they can’t afford. And that is why I choose to be paid in coffee, houseplants, or pay-what-you-can.
Aren’t you afraid that people will abuse my father’s daughter and its payment options?
It is a genuine and legitimate worry! I am choosing to start my father’s daughter.design from a place of trust—that the brands and people who reach out to me are genuine and will be willing to pay a fair token in exchange for my expertise and time.
