Your Partner in Design

Holl&Design is an independent design studio specializing in human-centric branding, typography, and illustration. I started this studio to empower growing companies and socially minded brands. Originally based in Philadelphia, I am now living and working in Berlin, Germany!

Whether clients are local or remote, I take pride in partnering with causes I care about. I've worked with brands in sectors from the food industry to public finance, always with the aim to create a better brand experience for entrepreneurs and their consumers. I never work with artificial intelligence so that we handle each case with a human touch.

  • Operating independent design studio since 2018

  • 30+ clients in 6 different industries

  • Working within the design world since 2016

  • B.A. in Visual Studies and Consumer Psychology / University of Pennsylvania

FAQs

  • Are you looking for a designer whose work will unerringly support your brand’s goals? Do you value strategic thinking and flexible aesthetics? Are you willing to be a creative partner? If you answered yes to all those, then we’re probably a great match!

  • Timelines vary based on the extent of your needs, your organization’s coordination of feedback, and our combined availability. Building a brand together can take 2+ months. One-off projects can be completed in 1+ weeks.

  • The services listed above are a good guide for my offerings, but I’m always open to new ideas! My portfolio of work showcases some of my favorite projects, but by no means is it a comprehensive digest of my abilities. Reach out to me for more information!

  • My aesthetic doesn’t exist. I adapt aesthetics to best support each brand and its goals, ideal consumers, and system.

  • Yes, of course! But never just a logo. Every design must be backed by strategic thinking, so any logo design will at least include a primary logo, potential applications, a color palette, and guidelines for use.

  • No, for a variety of reasons that I’m more than happy to discuss, including negative consumer perceptions.
