I didn’t grow up knowing I wanted to be a graphic designer (who does????)
Honestly… I didn’t even like graphic design when I first started learning it 👀
Arts was always my thing at school. I loved creating, making things, experimenting... but I had absolutely no idea that graphic design could become a career.
Then somewhere along the way, I got (reallllllyyyyyy) good at it.
Good enough that people started asking me to make things for their businesses.
A logo here.
A business card there.
A birthday invitation.
A photoshoot.
A flyer.
And slowlyyyy, without really planning it, Sikoya Design started taking shape 🤍
I went to uni. Kept doing design on the side. Then COVID happened and I had to decide whether I was actually going to make this my full-time thing.
I did.
13 years later, I’m very grateful that I did 🫶🏼
But the biggest shift hasn’t actually been in my design style.
It’s been in the way I think.
13 years ago, I would’ve thought my job was to make you a good logo.
Now, I’m thinking about your positioning, your customer journey, your website, your photography, your messaging, your marketing, what makes you different, where you’re going next and whether every piece of your brand actually feels connected.
The logo is just one tiny piece of that.
And honestly? That’s the part of this work I love most ✨
Getting to understand the woman behind the business, then making the outside finally feel like the inside.
That’s Sikoya Design x
