Designers assemble - we’re kicking off a new series decoding the client feedback that keeps us up at night.

Episode 1: “Make it pop.” 💥 (one we've all been personally victimized by)

➡ Share this with a designer who needs it!

Slide 1: A young girl blowing a pink bubblegum bubble. Text reads: “When a client says: ‘Make it POP!’ ask them this →”
Slide 2: Blurry pastel background. Text reads: “Ask for direction:” followed by three prompts: “What part needs more energy?”, “Do you want more contrast, color, or emphasis?”, “Is this about attention or personality?”
Slide 3: Dark, soft-focus background with colorful lights. Text reads: “The pop = a vibe. Your job = decode the vibe.”
Slide 4: Blue and purple abstract background. Text reads: “Save this for your next project. Need tailored advice? We’re here to help!” Wheelhaus branding in the corner. Footer: Footer: “a series for designers — Wheelhaus”

Desk decor roll call! 🌿✨

If you could ONLY keep one thing on your desk (besides your computer), what’s staying?

A plant? A mug? A funky little trinket? Drop it below ⬇️

Bringing a little sunshine to your day ☀️

I’ve always loved looking for shapes in clouds — it’s such a simple creative reset. As a kid, this was my go-to car ride entertainment.

“The world boils down to two types of people — those who see shapes in clouds, and those who just see clouds.” — D. Pace

What’s the last thing you spotted in the clouds? 👀☁️

Accessibility Caption: A photo taken from a car on a quiet country road under a bright blue sky filled with large, fluffy clouds. The sun peeks through the clouds, casting light across the open landscape and distant hills.

Spent this past Saturday at Connecticut Art Directors Club's annual LiftOff student workshop, graciously hosted by OUTFRONT Media USA 🚀

This event brings together design students from across Connecticut to collaborate, brainstorm, and flex their creative thinking skills. I had the opportunity to take part as a facilitator this year — guiding one of the student teams through their rebranding concept project.

It’s always inspiring to see the next generation of designers dive in with so much energy, curiosity, and confidence. Events like this remind us why investing in creative education matters — it keeps our industry growing, evolving, and full of energy. 💡

In the background, a group of people sit around tables listening to a speaker at the front of the room. A large screen behind him displays the event logo, “The CADC Presents LiftOff 2025 Student Workshop, November 8 | New Haven.” In the foreground, a laptop shows the same event graphic on screen.

New(ish) headshot, same creative chaos (in the best sense) behind the scenes. 😅

For those who don’t know me, I’m Carissa — designer, creative director, and the person steering the Wheelhaus journey. I’ve spent 13+ years in the design world, earning recognition along the way, and my favorite part is helping brands bring their stories to life through creative, thoughtful design. I also really love plants and dogs… if you can’t tell by our feed, lol. 🌿🐾

The studio (and the work we do) is evolving, and I can’t wait to share what’s next!

Accessibility Caption: Carissa is sitting in front of a wood-paneled wall with some hanging plants, wearing a cozy knit sweater with cream, mustard, orange, and navy patches. I’m holding a white stylus and smiling softly at the camera — casual, comfy, and a little bit thoughtful.

Excited to showcase our brand new logo animation! ✨🎬 Big thanks to our intern, Aksel, for helping us bring it to life.

Shhh… Ren’s in stealth mode 🥷

“I’m hiding in the tall grass to make this fall hike last forever… and maybe embracing my inner Halloween predator. 🦁 Can you guess what I’m pretending to be this year?”

Swipe to find me… if you can! 👀

Accessibility Caption: A two-photo carousel featuring Ren the dog on a cloudy fall day. In the first photo, he is mostly hidden in tall, straw-colored grass, almost matching the color of the grass. In the second photo, he is more visible, sitting up in the grass with his head and body more clearly seen.

Carving pumpkins isn’t something I can do — so I paint them instead! 🎨

My grandfather started this tradition when I was little. He would draw the designs, and I’d bring them to life with paint. Over the years, it’s become one of my favorite creative traditions. 👁️

A little reminder that accessibility and creativity often go hand in hand — there’s always a way to make a tradition your own. Happy Halloween from Wheelhaus! 🎃

Accessibility Caption: A painted pumpkin sits on a grey kitchen counter. The pumpkin is painted to look like a hyper-realistic blue-green eyeball is inside the pumpkin. In the background, slightly out of focus, is a traditionally carved pumpkin.
