I build distinctive brands for conscious product founders. The kind investors back, retailers beg to stock, and dream customers covet.

Your brand and mission deserve to be impossible to ignore.

So how do we build a brand that investors back, retailers beg to stock, and dream customers covet?

We do this by ensuring your passion and purpose translates into packaging and branding that not just looks the part, but is strategically designed to get that ✷YES!✷ from your customers, retailers, and investors.

☞ Because you're not here to blend into the beige or follow whatever's trending in your feed.

When your design clearly communicates your offering's value...

It can transform how your business is seen and felt, creating an impression that resonates so deeply it goes straight into hearts (and carts)of your dream customers.

After helping launch hundreds of products, here's what I've discovered:

From working with over 200 brands from FMCG giants to grassroots conscious startups, the brands that become impossible to ignore blend strategic distinctiveness + authentic values.

My approach to design?

A framework where intuition and strategy collide; rooted in a creative curiosity for finding the essence beneath the surface and insight into retail psychology. Think: intentional, humanist, nuanced design that will knock your customers' Birkenstocks off.

Jo ChunYan Brand Designer & Coach

Hello, I’m Jo (she/her)—packaging and brand designer, aspiring ambivert, and anti-dupe advocate.

I’ve spent 15+ years shaping product brands, having cut my teeth inhouse at global FMCG giants like Unilever and Twinings, to now serving only conscious cult-brands in food, beauty, and wellness.

My hand-on-heart mission? A world where conscious brands become the norm and gold standard for doing business.

When I'm not obsessing over colour palettes *seriously, its borderline concerning, you’ll find me planning my next trip to Japan, or chilling out with my sassy sausage pup Nori.
