Who we serve
What we do

Most brands don’t fail because of their offer. They fail because they don’t know what they stand for. At Hillside Studio, this is where we begin. We believe branding isn’t about shouting louder. It’s about being clear. Clear on who you exist for, what you stand for and why you started in the first place. Once we know what that is, the design has something honest to sit on.

We Define Brand Strategies

Helping you define your purpose, positioning, and values, so every design & brand decision has something to anchor to.

We Design Brand Identities

A visual identity that brings your brand strategy and purpose to life. This is your logo, colour palette, typography, tone of voice, the lot.

We Deliver Ongoing Brand Support

For founders who want consistent brand output as they grow. Making brand rollout simple, and easy. Menu’s, socials, adverts - you name it!

And Set-Up Websites for Start-ups

Perfect for businesses who need a simple but beautiful squarespace website to get them off the ground.

We’ve built brands for clients who are; breaking the stigma around menopause, turning waste into renewable energy, roasting sustainable coffee off-grid, building balance into the hospitality industry & empowering young athletes to succeed in life beyond sport.

If you’re starting something new, or looking to refresh an existing brand, let’s talk.

If you’re looking for: A quick logo, something purely trend-led, branding as a surface-level exercise, or a studio that says yes to everything. We may not be the right choice.

But if you’re a business that’s purpose-driven and you care about getting it right rather than getting it fast. Then Hillside Studio might be exactly what you’re looking for.
