One that feels organic and aligned to your customers and your business. To bring that experience to life, it requires a whole lot of design experience and more than a dash of intuition. That’s what we’re here for.
We dig deep and get to know not only our clients, but their audiences as well. Our design process is a true partnership from beginning to end.
From the initial client meeting to project off-boarding, Blades Creative Design Studio is your partner and guide throughout the design experience – and beyond.
Gabrielle Blades, Lead Designer & Owner
I started my career in design working with the city of Chattanooga. During my time working with the city, I also worked with a nonprofit that supported local entrepreneurs.
I saw what branding and design unlocked for these small businesses, and the potential it helped them realize. I also realized that, I was in the same position as them — primed to start my own business.
After many conversations and cups of tea: I took a leap of faith and started Blades Creative Design Studio in 2015. Today, my small-but-mighty team serve as the advocate and designer for creative, lifestyle, and wellness brands, bringing their purpose and potential out into the world.
I have a deep personal understanding of what it means to run a business, strive for better with your brand, and serve your people. Let’s do this thing.
We respect the boundaries and values we’ve set, and don’t take on projects that are poorly aligned with them — for our sake, and for the sake of those we love serving. We prioritize community, and connect with people and causes that align with us, locally and globally.
More than anything, we believe in contributing something more to the world.
That is why we celebrate diversity, equity, and inclusion. We love working with clients and contractors from a variety of backgrounds, and honoring everyone’s unique perspectives and strengths.
