About us
The fun stuff that we love to talk about!
Welcome to Derf Design Studio, where thoughtful design meets a deeper understanding. After spending five years in the corporate world, I founded Derf with a clear mission: to move beyond surface-level design and truly get to the heart of what makes your brand unique.

It’s not just about asking, “Who is your audience?” but digging into “What exactly is your audience searching for, and how can we integrate those insights into everything we create?”
Creative minds
As the founder of Derf, it's essential to me that we have a team of creatives ready to take on any task! I work with a small team of freelance creatives such as Alex, our social media specialist.
All initial projects will be undertaken by myself, Jess! I'll get to know your brand and advice on the best steps to help you reach your goals.

Alex
Founder
After spending half a decade in the corporate world, I founded Derf with a clear mission: to move beyond surface-level design and truly get to the heart of what makes your brand unique.
When we work together, I bring that perspective to the table. I help you think not just about what you want to say, but how that message will be received. Whether it’s a logo, a website, or an ad, I apply the psychology of communication to ensure we’re crafting something that doesn’t just look beautiful but also speaks to people in a way that’s meaningful. In essence, we’re not just designing; we’re authoring an experience that resonates and endures.
With our background in ads, marketing, campaign building and design. we've got you covered.

Marketing campaigns
Design doesn’t just support marketing—it is marketing. Every project shapes perception, reinforces messaging, and drives engagement from the customers you want.
