A creative studio specialising in brand identity, web design graphic design for print and digital
About Me
I'm Claire, founder of Studio Kokomo, designer, deep thinker & lover of colour.
With eight years in branding and graphic design, and a background that spans advertising, floral design and a Social Science degree with a major in Philosophy, I bring strategic grounding and a genuine love of craft to every project.
Before relaunching Studio Kokomo full-time in 2026, I spent several years working as a designer at a Sydney branding studio, where I had the privilege of working with some of Australia's most iconic brands including Archie Rose Distillery, Blundstone, rebel sport and St Hugo wine. That experience sharpened my craft, deepened my strategic thinking, and gave me an understanding of what it takes to build brands that perform at the highest level.
Curiosity about human nature lies at the heart of what I do. I'm as interested in the people behind a brand as I am in the visual outcome. When done well, design is one of the most powerful tools for human connection there is.
How I work
Every project moves through the same considered stages: discovery and strategy, concept design, refinement and final delivery. I work closely with clients throughout, and bring a love of analogue textures, hand-drawn elements and the kind of considered detail that makes work feel human.
When you work with Studio Kokomo, you work with me directly, start to finish.
Outside the Studio
When Iām not in the studio, I'm a mum of two living in a dreamy 1970s house in a village just outside Sydney, where the Royal National Park meets the coast. My happiest days include bushwalking with my family, weaving, coffee, and a stack of art and design books.
