about the studio
Emily Wells Design is a brand and web design studio creating thoughtful, intentional identities for businesses around the world.
We partner with businesses across all industries who understand the importance of strong branding, and view design as an extension of their vision, not just a finishing touch.
We believe the most impactful brands are not always the loudest, but the most intentional. Our role is to bring that intention to life in a way that feels effortless, enduring, and true to you.

I started EWD the way many businesses begin—at the kitchen table. While I now work from an actual studio, not much has changed. You’ll still find me with a coffee in hand, surrounded by mood boards and sketches, continually grateful to be doing this work over a decade later.
I’m a mom of 2: Claire and Grant. We love long summer weekends at the lake, traveling whenever we can, and spending time together as a family. I love slow hobbies like thrifting, crocheting, and playing piano.

Emily S. joined the team in 2025 and is our right-hand designer and client care coordinator. Graduating from Samford University in 2025, she studied graphic design with a focus in branding and package design.
Emily is a bit of an adrenaline junky and will say yes to anything worth trying! She is a supreme hobbiest, ranging from a jewelry maker to a harmonicist. You can normally find her sipping on a crisp doke in the sunshine!

ABOUT our design aesthetic
Our approach to design is rooted in clarity, intention, and cohesion.
We create brands that feel considered at every level, where typography, color, and form work together in a way that is both refined and enduring. We place a strong emphasis on typography, studying each letterform and how it contributes to the overall tone and presence of a brand.
Every detail is purposeful. Nothing is arbitrary, and nothing is added without reason.
We consider not only how a brand looks, but how it is experienced, ensuring a clear visual hierarchy and a natural flow that guides the viewer with ease. It’s often the smallest details that create the most lasting impact and sense of refinement, resulting in a brand presence that feels intuitive and compelling.
Our goal is to create work that holds its weight over time. By focusing on cohesion and restraint, we develop brands that feel timeless, recognizable, and built to grow with you as your business evolves, maintaining a strong and consistent foundation.
