🔥June recap
Heatwaves, events and client work that we are loving
Looking back on last month, a few moments stand out:
🔥 surviving the relentless heatwaves (shoutout to my home office fan),
🧠 getting re-inspired through brilliant events and exhibitions,
🫶 and most importantly, doing the work we love.
One highlight? Wrapping the Pink Stitch campaign for our fab client Cayr. This was a joyful, purpose-led project that reminded us why we do what we do. We also welcomed some new faces to the studio family and finally launched a website we’ve been crafting behind the scenes…aesthetic, aligned, and worth the wait.
It was a full month, one of those deep-in-the-work kind of months. And honestly? We’re here for it. Because building brand universes that feel true and help our clients move their mission forward and that’s what lights us up.
With love,
Tx
In client news, we’re proud to share the sub branding we created for Cayr Pink Stitch, their first breast cancer community initiative. We created the visual identity for the campaign and absolutely loved bringing it to life. From bold tones to thoughtful details, every element was crafted to reflect the care and intention behind the project. Led by the incredible Emily Jo Gibbs, the workshops offer a creative space for women navigating breast cancer. It’s a joy to see Cayr’s brand universe grow deeper and more expressive while staying true to its core.
In other client news, we’ll soon be sharing about a really special creative direction and website project we’ve been working on. Here’s a little peak to what it’s looking behind the scenes in the Illustrator mood boards and it’s been a joy to work to deliver this one on Shopify. Stay tuned for more…😉
*Bucket list alert* I’ve been interviewed for the iconic CreativeBoom magazine and we go deep. We spoke about burnout (been there), overworking (still unlearning), and why designing a life with space to grow is the most rebellious creative act of all. If you’re feeling the pressure to do it all, read this. It’s honest, unfiltered and hopefully, a bit freeing.
Working in my home office during the heatwave was tough. I had to stay in for many house admin reasons and really missed my air conditioned co working space. Why is it so hard to focus when it’s really hot?
Don’t think I’ve ever needed a holiday this much. It’s been a while since I have a proper break and feeling the burnout signs closing in, so therapy and exercise have really kept me going.
Ghosting from clients after sending a proposal is always a tough one. We’ve all been there, but when you’re juggling a full schedule, it can feel especially frustrating. It’s that weird mix of disappointment and lost momentum that’s hard to shake, right?
🌿 Breathwork and therapy. Literally the best things and keeping me sane.
👩🏽🎨 June was a busy event month between Adobe community dinners and evenings and D&AD New Blood, it’s just been so fun and nourishing to hang out with friends and peers from the creative community.
📚 Reading Women Who Run With The Wolves by Clarissa Pinkola Estes and it’s AMAZING.
