MEET MELISSA K HARRIS
I’ve made sofas sexier, kitchens timeless, realtors refined and wineries dreamy.

Whether you’re launching something new or evolving an existing brand, I’m in it with you — fully, creatively, wholeheartedly.
SERVICES
My Branding Blueprint Packages have a detailed guide for your unique brand development.
Brand DNA
Before we design, we define. Through research, discovery, and analysis, we uncover what makes your brand unique — your values, voice, and vision. This sets the foundation for every design decision that follows.
Logo Design
The best logos don’t happen by accident. They’re the result of a thoughtful, step-by-step process that uncovers what makes your brand unique, and turns that into a design that’s timeless, memorable, and meaningful. Let’s build a logo that truly represents your brand.
Brand Identity
A Brand ID contains all the essential pieces that any new business or brand needs to take your business to the next level. It’s your brand’s visual signature. Logos, color palettes, typography, tone — every element is crafted to reflect your business goals and speak to your audience.
Brand Refresh
Evolve your brand without losing its essence. We review your logo, messaging, design assets, and digital presence to ensure consistency, clarity, and current relevance. Making sure your brand matches your mission and goals for your company.
Website Design
Websites remain a fundamental, even essential communication medium for business. A website’s role is defining, supporting and advancing your brand by combining creative skills and programming tools to create an engaging and easy to access to your storyboard.
Social Media Branding
Get Your Brand on Instagram (and other social pages)! Custom Canva templates, cohesive layouts, and branded content that makes your Instagram, LinkedIn, or Facebook presence feel polished and powerful.
Podcasting
Ready to get your voice out there? We help you create branded podcast visuals and assets, edit your audio, and guide your content strategy for maximum reach. Podcasts are inexpensive to create and scale well, a win-win for you.
PORTFOLIO
I create with solo entrepreneurs, start-ups, private enterprise and corporations. With my 30+ years experience, I’ve created over 250 logos, have designed over 100 websites and help build over 75 brands.
From branding logo concepts to crafting a social media design statement, I organize you, your brand and your company’s image.
