about Kind Design Studio
I don’t follow trends. My design approach is knowing how to zig when everyone else zags.
If i had to guess…
You’re not just looking for a designer, you’re looking for someone who can bring clarity & create something truly meaningful
You’ve taken bold steps to get here, investing your time, energy, and passion. Maybe you’ve outgrown the DIY phase or you’re ready to elevate a brand that no longer feels like you. You’re looking for one-of-a-kind results that have intention woven into every detail.
What you’re not interested in? Cookie-cutter templates or fleeting design trends. You want a thoughtful approach. One that helps you tell your story and connect with the right people.
If that sounds like you, you’re in the right place. I bring connection, strategy, and collaboration to every project, so your brand doesn’t just look good—it works for you and the people you serve. Let’s create something beautiful together!
the kind story
You’d think my future in design would have been obvious when I was 12, creating PowerPoints and begging my teacher to share them with the class (cringe).
But my career path wasn’t so straightforward. I’ve sold pies, worked in coffee shops, and spent my fair share of time in the corporate cubicle. One day it just clicked and I realized I wanted a career where I could be creative and genuinely help others.
Leaving the stability of a corporate job to take a chance on yourself? I know that feeling. I also know the challenges of starting from scratch. That’s why I founded Kind Design Studio—to partner with kind, heart-led businesses brave enough to bet on themselves.
When you work with Kind, you’re not just getting a designer, you’re gaining a business bestie who’s here to cheer you on every step of the way. I believe kindness and empathy are the most underrated superpowers in business, and if you agree, I think we’ll get along perfectly.
I’m all about…
kindness
Kindness is my super power and I started my business to serve like-minded brands with the same values.
intention
My design approach is rooted in strategy, intention and storytelling. I don’t believe in design shortcuts or trends.
connection
Long-term connections are an important part of my business and I’ll always be an ambassador for your brand.
authenticity
I create authentic brands by listening to your goals & dreams, then infusing your story into every brand detail.
I highly recommend Kind Design to anyone looking for a personal connection to a designer who listens & looking to have a calm and supportive experience while having their vision met.
Kind Design created the branding for my business and I couldn't be happier with the results. I wasn't sure how to communicate my vision, and the branding/pre-project questionnaires were really helpful in doing that. Shaylyn took the time to listen, was in-depth without feeling intimidating, and was talented at piecing all of the aspects together.
Shaylyn met my vision in a very stress-free, communicative, and open-to-feedback way. She was thoughtful about what was presented and why - which you can see reflected in the design.
The entire process has left me feeling incredibly confident about putting myself out there - and that customers will trust me with their purchases.
