ABOUT SOLMADE STUDIO

Work rooted in artistry and designed to linger long after the first impression

Solmade Studio specializes in art-forward branding, websites, and packaging for businesses that value thoughtful design and rich visual storytelling. Inspired by texture, atmosphere, fine art, and the subtle tension between refinement and imperfection, I create brands that feel layered, evocative, and deeply considered.

Key values close to my heart

design with MEANING

The strongest brands don’t just look beautiful; they communicate something deeper. Every visual decision should support the feeling, values, and experience behind a business. I approach branding with intention, creating work that resonates emotionally while remaining grounded in strategy and purpose.

An art-forward approach

My background in fine art shapes the way I design. Hand-drawn details, painterly textures, custom typography, and imperfect elements bring warmth and dimension to my work. These layers create brands that feel distinct, lived-in and human.

Working with Kind People

The best work happens through trust, collaboration, and mutual respect. I care deeply about creating an experience that feels supportive and intentional from beginning to end, and I love working with businesses creating meaningful, well-crafted work of their own.

The hands behind the work

I’m Jennifer, the Founder and Creative Director of Solmade Studio.

Before opening my studio, I spent years designing for established brands including Urban Decay, Billabong, JCPenney, Samsung, and others across beauty, fashion, retail, and technology. Over time, I found myself drawn less to mass production and more to thoughtful, detail-driven work with a stronger sense of artistry and individuality.

So today, I partner with creative founders, artisans, and elevated service providers to create brands that feel immersive, textural, and emotionally resonant—brands with a distinct point of view and a lasting presence.

My aesthetic lives somewhere between refined and undone—earthy, layered, and a little unexpected.

My approach

Strategy

Every project begins with research, conversation, and creative direction. Before design begins, we uncover the deeper qualities shaping your brand—your values, differentiators, audience, positioning, and the feeling you want people to walk away with.

creation

Once the brand direction is established, your visual world begins to take shape. Through typography, texture, imagery, illustration, and layered detail, we craft a brand experience that feels cohesive, intentional, and completely unique.

We build entire worlds for your customers to step into

The best brands don't shout. They draw you closer. They have a quality that's hard to name but impossible to ignore. A richness that makes your customer feel like they've discovered something worth staying for.

Most of our clients come to us at an inflection point. The business has grown, but the brand hasn't kept up. We help them build something that finally matches the level of what they do through fully immersive brand experiences that stay with you.
