A little about me

A Creative Journey

Hi, I’m Louise — an experienced graphic designer and creative thinker, and the founder of Whitespace Studio.

I studied a BA Creative Arts (Graphic Design), and while my career has taken me in a few different directions, design has always been the thread running through it all.

For the past 10+ years, I’ve worked within the Architecture & Design industry, surrounded by talented designers, architects, materials, spaces and ideas. It was an experience that shaped the way I see the world — and reminded me just how much I love the creative process.

I believe creativity has the power to shape how we experience the world. Beauty, colour, typography, imagery and thoughtful details can change how something feels — and that’s what makes design so endlessly fascinating to me.

These days, I’m embracing a slower, more intentional way of working.   Creating beautiful things, working with people I genuinely connect with, and giving each project the time and thought it deserves.

FAQs

Here are a few of the questions I’m often asked!Have another question? I’d love to hear from you.

So, why the name Whitespace? +

Whitespace is one of those quiet but incredibly powerful elements of design. It creates balance, gives the eye somewhere to rest and allows the things that matter to stand out. Sometimes it's what you leave out that makes a design say more.

I chose the name Whitespace because that's how I believe good design should feel — considered, balanced and never cluttered. And perhaps more importantly, it's how I want to work and live too.

What makes a space feel special to me? +

The little things. Light, texture, colour, beautiful objects and a sense that someone has really thought about how a space should feel.

What am I drawn to? +

I'm naturally drawn to things that feel considered — beautiful typography, interesting spaces, tactile materials, art, architecture and the little details that make something memorable.

What am I curious about? +

Beauty in the everyday — whether that's a beautiful building, an interesting piece of art, a hidden little shop or an unforgettable sunset.
