What’s all this about then?

At Mellow Made Studio, I help you figure out what your brand is really trying to say and then turn that into a visual identity that does the talking for you.

But before I even pick up a pencil, you and I will go on a deep dive and look at what problem your business solves; why it matters; who you’re really trying to reach, and how you want people to feel when they experience your brand.

Because once that foundation is clear, design decisions become a whole lot easier and a lot less guessy.

Branding should feel like a process you’re part of, not something that happens to you.

No jargon, no confusion, no guessing what’s going on. I’m not here to hand you a logo in three days, call it “branding” and disappear. You’ll know where we’re at at every stage, and as I’m a one girl studio, you’ll have access to your actual designer at all times!
If you’re worried you’ll lose control - don’t! From our initial discovery call to me handing you final files, we’ll work together and you’ll give me the ok at each decision stage along our journey to you falling in love with your new branding.
Taking on a graphic designer can be scary whether you’re worrying how much it will it cost to if you can tell me when you don’t like something. I’m all about demystifying the process and you can be sure that I’ll be supportive and transparent throughout our project.
With 15+ years of experience in design, I understand why branding is important. Every decision will have a reason behind it, from colour choice to logo style. And your customer is always where we start!

And you can expect to have fun on the way. Because if branding feels like a chore, we’re doing it wrong.

Why your business deserves an identity that works as hard as you do.

Who cares about branding anyway? I just need a cute logo and some colours right?

Good branding starts long before the logo.

In fact, there’s one question every business owner needs to ask themselves: What problem are you solving for your customers?

Not:

"What should my logo look like?"

Not:

"What's the trending colour palette this year?"

And definitely not:

"Should I use a script font because everyone else seems to?"

Because whether you sell handmade candles, bespoke jewellery, pet accessories or accounting services, your customers aren't buying because they simply want another thing.

They're buying because they're hoping that thing will do something for them.

This is why I spend so much time talking about strategy before design.

Because once you understand what problem you're solving, why it matters and who it matters to, everything else starts to fall into place. Your messaging becomes clearer. Your visual identity becomes more intentional. Your website becomes easier to write. Your social media becomes less of a guessing game.

And suddenly you're not making branding decisions based on what’s trendy. You're making them because they support how you want people to feel when they interact with your brand.

That's a very different approach.

Meet your designer

When I’m not working on design projects, you’ll find me on the school run; drinking coffee that’s gone cold after a hyperfixation or walking my dog Ted and mentally redesigning logos I walk past.

That creative, busy brain? Always on.

A little bit about me…

I spent over 12 years working in design and marketing within the private and charity sector
Covid gave me space to re-assess. I loved being at home with my kids and I’d long dreamed of working for myself. So I made the decision to go solo
I know my way around Adobe and Affinity design suites
I’m old school: You’re in safe hands if you need anything designed for print
I love a podcast. Anything true crime, and BBC’s Uncanny is my fav!
