DesignGood is a full-service, high-vibe design and branding studio that helps you build your business and brand around the life you want to live.
DesignGood’s High-Vibe Brand Method will guide you step by step through creating a vision for your business and bringing that vision to life. Then we turn that vision into a brand that helps you attract and authentically connect with the people you want to work with in a meaningful way.
We create brands and we tell stories that are as unique and powerful as you are. Whenever a potential customer encounters you, they should feel like they are talking directly to you. Your brand is an extension of who you are and what you want to be known for. We create brands that look and sound like you and speak directly to the people or companies you want to work with.
Everyone knows that breakups and divorces are no walk in the park. Amy Sparks is making one aspect of this transition - finding a new home - a little bit easier. As an Austin-based realtor, Amy’s business is based on two guiding principles: that our home is a source of our wellbeing and that we can create a happy new life as we grow into our next chapter. With over 14 years of experience and expertise in real estate, she helps individuals come home to themselves by finding a new space that allows them to thrive.
Ever the connector, Amy had accumulated a large community of like-minded people who were experts in their field. She had a vision of creating and packaging these connections as an offering with one goal in mind: to support her clients as they developed a new sense of community and self. This vision birthed The Spark Collective, a network of uplifting connections to support her clients along their transformation journeys. In working with Amy, we designed a brand’s visual identity, website and client outreach tools that set her apart from other realtors, showcasing her thoughtful approach and her results-oriented work ethic. After taking Amy through our discovery process to learn more about her story, expertise and preferences, we wove her personal journey into the copy to create a sense of connection with her clientele. To match the ‘spark’ of her fiery personality, we created a clean and bold visual palette that included black and white with pops of gold and red. What can one expect while working with Amy? That they will rediscover their spark!

As a leadership development and performance coach, mindfulness expert, television personality, professional model and writer (Whew!), Kate’s multifaceted background gives her uncommon insight into the challenges faced by high achievers. With the upcoming release of her first book, The Full Spirit Workout: A Ten-Step System to Shed Your Self-Doubt, Strengthen Your Spiritual Core, and Create a Fun and Fulfilling Life, Kate came to DesignGood ready for a brand refresh that could capture her essence, expand her marketing reach and help her connect with new audiences.
As the online home for her personal brand, Kate needed her website to build her clientele for coaching and motivational speaking, and as a point of sale for her book and courses. But just as importantly, it needed to reinforce her credibility as a subject-matter expert and introduce Kate to readers and media outlets interested in booking her for interviews and guest appearances. We helped Kate clarify her brand language and developed a visual identity system that conveyed her mission, services and unique mind-body-spirit approach to coaching. To drive engagement and promote book sales, we created a pre-release landing page for Kate’s book, with an option for readers to pre-order. Over on her website, a lead magnet provided site visitors with a free chapter download and the chance to experience Kate’s powerful work firsthand, while building her email list. To close the circle of good, we followed up with branded email marketing so Kate could stay on-brand while continuing to inspire clients, readers and fans alike – including the team here at DesignGood.

In three decades of creating costumes, Eric’s business had grown into one of the largest and most well-regarded studios in Manhattan. But along with the sartorial trends of days past, he’d left his branding and website far behind.
Eric heads up a team of master drapers, dressmakers and stitchers who construct each costume by hand. And while their completed costumes are seriously impressive, we took a fresh approach to showing off their work, telling the story of their craft through a highly customized portfolio experience that includes design sketches, detail shots, works-in-progress, performance photos and video. The customized portfolio treatment, along with a separate showcase of details, demonstrates how the studio’s unwavering attention to detail and quality plays well to camera and stage alike. Like his studio, which grew from 400 square feet in its earliest days to more than 8,000 square feet today, we updated and expanded Eric’s brand through a new visual identity, website design and copy to tell his story in bigger, brighter, more colorful fashion.
See the full project »Neathery Falchuk came to DesignGood with a vision: To create a brand that would reflect the warmth and inclusivity of her therapy practice while feeling big enough for future expansion beyond a single office. With a growing team of therapists, Neathery knew it was time to make the shift from a personal brand to one that would provide space for every team member to define their own niche within the business.
We began our work with developing the name and the clarifying language that would serve as the foundation of the new brand. “Ample & Rooted” grew out of Neathery’s belief that each of us is whole and beautiful and that therapy provides a way to become grounded and connected to ourselves and one another. The logo and overall visual identity sprouted from the name and serve as a symbol of the healing and growth clients experience through counseling. The visual identity was extended throughout the new website, with a calming, grounded color palette and imagery that reflects the tone of the brand. Website copy was mindfully developed to acknowledge the diverse audience of the practice and convey a sense of affirmation and belonging. The expanded site gives space for each therapist to showcase their individual approaches and areas of expertise, as well as the company’s growing meditation and yoga offerings. For clients and therapists alike, Ample & Rooted serves as “A Home for the Whole You.”

"Even as a writer I'm finding it challenging to put into words how much I've enjoyed working with DesignGood. Kristin and every member of her team not only embody top-notch talent, but are also a complete dream to work with. From start to finish, I felt so cared for, never felt like an annoyance even when I was being annoying, and absolutely love what they created for my brand. Being able to launch a website this stunning, this polished, this professional during the biggest month of my career (the launch of my first book) felt so gratifying. I couldn't wait to show it off! There simply aren't enough words to adequately sum up how thrilled I am with my new brand and website. Thank you for your expertise, love, and kindness."

"Kristin and her team have an authentic ability to quickly hone in on who you are and what you are trying to accomplish with your business. Working DesignGood has been a game-changer in terms of how we will showcase our projects to clients and sales prospects moving forward. They took a dated and neglected website with minimal branding and social media promotion and created an industry best! The team worked through a daunting process with us, sorting through 30+ years projects to decide which best represented the breadth and scope of what we do. Kristin and the team literally brought our studio to life by showing the beauty of our process. We wanted our designer clients to envision themselves in our studio with their projects - mission accomplished. Sometimes creative businesses are so busy creating that they never take a pause to access where they’ve been and where they want to go with their business. DesignGood helped us to do that. We look forward to working with them on many more projects with them in the future."

"When I reached out to Kristin and the team at Design Good- I was in the FRESHEST area of planning my business. I was just barely starting my business plan and had just made my business name, Her Velvet Hand, official. I was referred to the team by one of my dearest friends- and after seeing her branding- I knew I was in exceptional hands. As a creative artist, it was paramount that I find a branding company that I could connect with in more ways than just business. From the get-go, the team at DesignGood has given me the most divine experience, not only with the creative artistry behind their designs, but their professional, patient, and supportive approach as I venture into this new journey. The work that has been put into my brand has exceeded my expectations and has been absolutely worth the investment. The girls at DesignGood have LITERALLY brought my vision to life and I could not be more thankful for the talent they have put into this project. THANK YOU for everything."

Since we launched our new website and brand, my business has exploded and I continue to hear how impactful it is to others. There are times I just scroll through our website because it's THAT beautiful! We've only launched 4 months ago and I've already seen a return on my investment. Working with DesignGood is worth it and I wholeheartedly recommend them."

"Kristin and the DesignGood team are incredibly creative and really strived to fully understand our business and cater specifically to our needs. While insurance may not be the most exciting or glamourous line of business, they delivered results that were still modern, vibrant and innovative while still aligning with our business purpose. We have received so much positive feedback, not only the website, but the branding as well! We couldn’t have achieved this without the creativity the DesignGood team brought to the table!"

"Our most recent project with them was not only a branding refresh, but also a complete update of our website to better showcase all that we have to offer. And we’re thrilled with the results. It’s strong, professional, and clearly shows our community all the ways in which we can help them. Most importantly, over the last two launch periods our sales page's membership conversion rate was an average of 11.4%! Based on my research, that’s the upper echelon. #hellyes"
