Boutique AI Creative Studio
Great design.
AI speed.
We're a two-person creative studio that designs websites, apps, social media content, videos, ads, and brand assets — with AI doing the heavy lifting so you get more, faster, for less.
Everything you need
to show up online
From a new website to a social media campaign to an AI-generated brand video — we handle the full creative stack for small businesses and growing brands.
Websites & Landing Pages
Professional, fast-loading websites designed and built for small businesses, entrepreneurs, and growing brands. We handle everything — design, copy direction, and launch.
Brand Identity & Design
Logos, colour palettes, typography, and visual systems that give your business a consistent, professional identity — across every touchpoint from your site to your packaging.
Social Media & Digital Ads
Scroll-stopping graphics, ad creatives, reels, and social content packs designed to be posted, not forgotten. We design for engagement — and we move fast.
AI Video & Mini-Movies
From brand story videos to short AI-generated films to investor pitch animations — we produce visual content that was previously reserved for big-budget studios, now accessible to everyone.
Presentations & Pitch Decks
Investor decks, sales presentations, and business proposals that actually impress. We combine strategic storytelling with design excellence — no boring templates.
Small App Design & Dev
Booking tools, portfolio apps, simple utilities and MVPs — we design and build compact digital products. Not enterprise software, but exactly what a small business needs to operate smarter online.
Brands we've helped
show up better
A cross-section of the businesses we've worked with — from family-owned services to international sports agencies.
Fast, clear, and
no surprises
Tell us what you need
Send us a message — a rough idea is enough to start. We'll have a quick conversation to understand your goals, your audience, and what success looks like for you.
We design and build
We get to work fast using AI-powered tools and senior design judgement. You see progress quickly — usually within days — and give feedback as we go.
You launch and grow
We hand over finished, ready-to-use work — websites, content, video, ads. No loose ends. We stick around for questions and can help maintain or expand over time.
Big studio quality.
Boutique prices.
We're not an agency with layers of account managers and inflated rates. We're two senior designers who love small businesses and use AI to punch way above our weight.
You get direct access to the people doing your work, fast turnarounds, honest communication, and final products that look like you spent ten times more than you did.
Two designers.
One creative mission.
We both have day jobs at the top of our industry. Thought By Design is how we channel our love of great design into helping small businesses get what they deserve.
Joe
Joe brings a rare combination of product design experience — earned working on digital products for some of North America's biggest companies — and a deep fluency with the AI tools changing what's possible. He believes great design should be accessible to any business, not just the ones with big budgets.
Victoria
Victoria is a strategic designer who turns complexity into clarity. Her background spans brand identity, user research, and design systems for enterprise clients — and she applies that thinking to every project, whatever the scale. She makes sure the work doesn't just look good; it works for real people.
