ABOUT THE STUDIO

Kalahari Design Studio is a communication design practice rooted in research, storytelling, and strategy. We work with purpose-led organisations, startups, and personal brands to create clear, intentional design—tools

ROOTED IN LISTENING STORY

Kalahari Design Studio is shaped by the open skies, shifting sands, and winding paths of the Kalahari—a landscape where life begins with a story: spoken, passed down, painted on stone.

From stillness, listening, and curiosity, ideas and forms begin to take shape—clear, practical, and compelling.

the challenge we solve

After over a decade working with national and international civil society groups in South Africa and France, I saw how often teams are asked to separate strategy from design.  Thinking gets split from doing. Heart from hands. The result? Communication that feels detached from purpose.

Kalahari Design Studio offers an alternative. I partner with mission-driven companies, NGOs, and personal brands to bridge strategy and design.

Together, we uncover your unique story, explore your goals and hopes, research competitors, and identify both opportunities and challenges. 

how we work

A practical, collaborative, and quietly courageous approach to communication design—open to discovery, trial and error, and doing things differently when it matters.

I started Kalahari Design Studio to work differently—at a pace that allows for listening, and in partnership with people building things that matter. If that sounds like you, I would love to meet.
