For the dreamers building something meaningful.
A NOTE FROM NITA
Iâm Nita, the designer behind Golden Designs Creative, a branding and illustration studio focused on thoughtful, handcrafted visual identities for small businesses. My work blends strategy with hand-drawn design, creating brands that feel intentional, cohesive, and built to last. While my style does have consistency, every project is shaped around the clientâs story, goals, and audience, never templated, never one-size-fits-all. Clients come to me not just for how things look, but for creative direction, clarity, and a process rooted in trust.
The Story Behind the Studio
Golden Designs Co. began after six years in the corporate marketing world, where I worked as a Marketing Director in the real estate industry and watched businesses grow from the ground up. That experience sparked my passion for brand designâand my desire to build something of my own.
After earning my Masterâs in Marketing, I took the leap and founded Golden Designs Co. Today, with over eight years of design experience and entering my third year in business, I create hand-drawn, story-driven brand identities that blend strategy and illustration to help small businesses show up with intention.
favorite things:
traveling, flowers, reading, sunsets, hiking, the mountains, vintage finds, country concerts, & cowboy boots.
Golden Designs Co. Values
-
The strongest work is built on mutual trust. Youâre hiring me not just for how things look, but for my creative judgment, strategy, and experience. When you trust the process and allow me to lead the design decisions, it creates space for something cohesive, meaningful, and thoughtfully considered to take shape.
-
No two businesses are the same and your brand shouldnât be either. While my work carries a recognizable, handcrafted style, every project is thoughtfully shaped around your story, goals, and audience. The result is branding that feels personal, intentional, and truly one-of-a-kind, never templated or one-size-fits-all.
-
Kindness and respect are at the heart of everything I do. From communication to feedback, I aim to create a collaborative experience that feels supportive, honest, and enjoyable from start to finish. Great design should feel good, not stressful, and I ask that same level of care and respect from my clients in return.
A Little Heart Behind the Studio
Boone and Harlee, my golden retrievers, are the namesake and spirit behind Golden Designs Co. They serve as full-time studio sidekicks, quietly reminding me that good work should leave room for joy!
for the wild hearted. a branding studio for the dream-chasers. a branding studio for the ones who burn brighter. a branding studio for the ones who build what they love. a branding studio for the ones who feel it in their bones.
