FOR THOSE WHO DESERVE MORE THAN BEING BACKSTAGE.
Brand identities and websites built like your favorite mixtape
Some brands belong pressed against the barricade, front row. Others are the ones in the back, arms crossed, mouthing every word. Whatever part of the spectrum you land on, you’re in the right place.

Built from your scratch notes, not a template
Every brand I build starts with the stuff that never fits in a questionnaire. The color you can’t quite explain, the reference only your inner circle could catch, the line you’ve been wanting to say out loud. I dial into that and craft brands and Squarespace sites the right people remember, whether it plays at full volume or the kind of quiet you only hear between songs.
Sound familiar?
Your Instagram, website, and business card all look like they belong to different people.
Someone told you to “professionalize it” and now everything’s 50 shades of beige.
You built the current version yourself at 1am while in a coffee fueled rage just wanting to get this sh!t over with and off your to-do list… and it shows.
You know exactly what your brand should feel like, but seem to struggle getting it out of your head and onto a page.
Been there, 10/10 would not recommend. You deserve a space for your cryptid-like self that might be a touch too chronically online.
Pick your venue
No two brands sound alike, so every project is built around what yours actually needs, and opens with a Soundcheck call so we can get a vibe of each other to make sure we’re a good match. It would suck if you were looking for Stagecoach and ended up at Warped Tour, or vice-versa.
How I get you there
No two brands sound alike, so everything is built around what yours actually needs.
Soundcheck
It’s up to you what you want to talk about. If you need full guidance or know exactly what you want and are ready to put it out there.
Opening Act, Headliner, or Main Stage, meeting you where you’re at, and maybe pushing you a little but it’s all worth it.
Pick your venue
You launch with a brand and site that finally sounds and feels like you. You’ll actually want to share everything with anyone who’s willing (or maybe not) to listen.
It's showtime!
The person behind the creative chaos.
Hi, I’m Rachel. I’ve spent more nights than I’m willing to admit listening to my “never a phase” playlist building something that teenage me didn’t even realize was the foundation of my amazing future. (I used to code Tumblr themes. Cringe I know.)
I build brands like I would a mixtape or curated playlist. Track by track until it finally sounds like the vibe and person it’s for. There are those who need to be front and center in the mosh pit losing their damn minds while others sway and just sing along. No matter where you fall, I got you.
New studio, first slots open
While I have multiple degrees and years of experience (crazy flex I know) Oktober Designs has just launched. So if you want my most undivided attention and the best rates, now would be the time to invest. I’m offering Portfolio project rates which means a hella discount, and who doesn’t love a good deal? So if you’re on the fence, this is your sign to jump off.
