Wow can you believe it's been a whole 12 months - but I am back and ready to face the new year head on and strong.

2023 has undoubtedly been one of the toughest years I can remember (yes even harder than that time we suffered through covid, don't come for me! 😬 ). I am eternally grateful for all of you who stuck around during my year of silence, and I hope to bring you some beautiful and insightful things in 2024.
 
Looking back at 2023 I took a much needed break from the design world, unexpectedly started a new job as a medical practice manager, said goodbye to my gran, had a trip to Cape Town and made some very nutritious food.

So while I am still adjusting to all that 2023 threw at me, I am definitely feeling excited and cautiously optimistic about what the future has in store for me.
 
What I've learned is that you can't always control everything and it doesn't help to dwindle on the things you can't control or change. But you can control the way you react to them, and how you take time to recover from them. Be gentle with yourself this year, take time for self care and take a break if you need one so you can continue to show up for what is truly important to you.
 
How will you show up for yourself in 2024? Let me know below 👇  
Happy New Year! 🥂 .

HAPPY HOLIDAYS! 🎄
I’m sure you have your Christmas tree all set up and the carols already playing in the background as everyone starts to get ready for the December break.

Although the Christmas decor has not yet been taken out of storage here, it’s on the to do list for this weekend with the family 🥰

With that, a little update - the studio will be closed from today for a little Christmas holiday break. I will be spending some much needed quality family time and resting to be refreshed and ready for what 2023 has to bring!

Stay safe and be kind this holiday season. See you in the new year! 🎉

Well I am very proud to say that I have ticked off each one of those for the year! 🙌 It has definitely been one crazy journey as a business owner, but I wouldn’t want it any other way! 🫶

Here’s to a great 2022, and an even better 2023 to come! 🥂

BRAND REVEAL 🤩

As a designer it can take years to find your ideal design style that you truly enjoy creating and that just comes naturally. That’s why I believe it is so important to take time to just create for the process.

A few months ago I was introduced to what is called “Passion Projects”, in essence these projects are exactly as the name states - a project made for the passion of it.

I have always loved creating soft, feminine brands with a whimsical and ethereal feel. Strong but magical. That is what this brand encapsulates. My love for simplicity in design and line icons.

I had so much fun just enjoying the process of creating this brand. Even though it is for a fictional business, I would love to create more brands like this in the future.

Thank you for helping me create this brands identity, your input in this process was a great experience. I can’t wait to create more brands and to have your input in future projects! 🤞

Working with a brand designer

If you have never had branding done by a designer before, the entire process may feel a little foreign to you. It’s hard to know what to expect the first time working with a brand designer, so here are 3 things to know before working with one.

1. Branding takes time. For a brand designer to fully understand your business and values they need to do a lot of research and sometimes it can take up to 2 months for a complete branding project. So do keep this in mind when you have a short timeline before enquiring with a brand designer.

2. It’s all about strategic solutions, not just making something pretty. A brand is meant to connect you with your audience and help you to stand out among competitors. So creating a good brand identity should have meaning and strategy behind it, not just a pretty logo.

3. You most likely won’t get endless logo options. The main reason, for me when presenting only 1 logo solution to my client is to avoid overwhelm, confusion and a ‘slapped-together’ look. This helps keep focus on the brand vision.

I hope this will shed some light if you are in the process of deciding to work with a brand designer. If you’d like to know more shoot me a message or comment below 👇

Don’t you just love these natural colours? 🙌

This project was a true collaboration between designer and client. I loved being able to work closely with Monique from on this beautifully natural and meaningful re-brand of her practice.

Thank you for trusting me with your re-brand. I can’t wait to see how your brand and business flourishes! 🍾
