CLEAN, CREATIVE VISUALS FOR BRANDS, EVENTS, AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN

At DesignbyGem, I make practical, personality-filled design for branding, stationery, and print. Whether you’re starting a business or organising your big day, I’m here to help you get your ideas off the ground – looking great without the fuss.

WHO I AM AND WHAT I DO

DesignbyGem is my independent design studio based in Liverpool, built around a love for meaningful visuals and clean, clever design. With a background in editorial and nearly a decade of experience in print and digital, I work across branding, event stationery, and editorial projects – always with a sharp eye for detail and a personal touch.

By day, I design for a learning & development company. By night (and weekends!), I run this little studio – helping people bring their ideas to life with clarity, style and heart.

Whether you’re launching a brand, planning a wedding, or dreaming up something a bit different, I’d love to help you create something beautiful and intentional.
