I take on design work (research, comms, and strategy) for people making things for social good and/or from the heart. I most enjoy working on projects that help us connect more deeply with the environment, our communities, our histories, and ourselves.

My process begins with strategy: decisions about what a project should do and feel like. Always, I listen for rhythm and pay detailed attention so that every part of a project works towards the core goals.

Recent projects include:

  • brand design for Turtle & Bloom, an IP-first media company;

  • creative and editorial direction for Restful, an anthology of writing and photography;

  • website for a network of archivists and librarians offering research services to film and audio documentarians;

  • design research, writing, and publication design of a guide to printing art books in Lagos, commissioned by the Goethe-Institut Nigeria.

If you’re looking for a thoughtful designer/creative director, get in touch.

Design for integrity.

“Working with [Rose] was an incredibly fascinating experience. I enjoyed her process as much as I did the delivery. She understood what my business needed and went above and beyond in building the identity that truly reflects the vision for Turtle and Bloom Media. I will recommend her services without a doubt, and already looking forward to working together again. ”
