HOLISTIC HAVEN : CUSTOM PROJECT
capture the heart and soul of your business’s mission and message.
bespoke projects for seasoned business owners
Soulspell Studio is a Heartcrafted Brand Design studio on a mission to make your intangible vision into tangible designs.
Soulspell Studio offers powerful brand design that goes beyond just creating beautiful visuals - together we create soulful, emotive brands that get to the heart of what you are trying to communicate.
Everything we do together is rooted in authenticity and strategy, led by your heart and soul.
I will guide you through an introspective journey and we will dig deep into your soul to find what I call your Heart Library™, and everything will organically unfold from there. You will be transformed by this journey and bring back the elixir - essentially answers in a bottle on how to run your business.
Your Heart Library™ is a four-part experience:
- The Golden Circle® (Simon Sinek)
- The Secret Garden
- The Dragonfly Inn
- The Alethiometer
Client Love Note
"I love that Clarisse puts herself in the place of each business to really get a sense of who they are and what their brand is about."
Your Heart Library is what makes you, YOU. What you visually like and love is the result of years and years of things you have seen and experienced since birth.
All of this creates the blueprint of your aesthetic.
We will find the threads of what moves your soul and weave them to into a tangible visual identity, from YOUR heart.
That's how you attract perfectly aligned people, your people.
Accessibility and flexibility are very important to me in my work. I’m committed to collaborating with disabled & neurodivergent folks on modifying my processes to support you however you deem best, within my capacity and scope of practice. Send me an inquiry to start a conversation on what this could look like.
investment
I create custom quotes for every client, starting at $8K \ payment plans available
At Soulspell Studio, I believe that the heart of a brand lies in the emotion it creates in the customer. That’s why I specialize in designing emotive brands, using my unique process to explore your brand’s personality and values. It helps you to clearly define your brand’s character and message, so you can easily stand out from the crowd and create an authentic connection with your target audience.
Client Love Note
"My favorite thing about working together was that it felt like I was working with a friend that I have known for years! It was such a comfortable collaboration, and I believe it truly made a contribution to the creative process."

why soulspell studio?
rising
After 12+ years of experience in luxury design, I can elevate any brand with my unique knowledge and skills I picked up working with French brands like Guerlain and Dior. And I will bring that to your project.
storytelling
Storytelling is such a big part of good design. I bring storytelling in every touchpoint of your brand and that’s exactly how you become memorable to your audience. You started your business for a reason and you have something to say so let’s say it!
connection
Connection is what I was missing when working in corporate design, and one of the reasons I built my own studio. I need to build a true connection with the people I work with. They are my partners more than my clients.
magic
I was called a Good Witch before and I promise I only use white magic spells & potions to bring out your soul in every aspect of your brand. In your strategy, in your design, in your website...
We will be a great fit if
You're a quiet soul that has a fire underneath.
You're ready to explore that fire to build an incredible brand.
You need to feel a deep connection with your brand in order to show-up consistently for the long-run.
You want more than a designer, you want a brand partner, a friend that is there to bring the best out of you in a long-term relationship.

the process
normal world
That’s when you decide it’s time to elevate your business and get curious enough to fill out the inquiry form so I can get to know you and what you need for your brand.
meeting the mentor
That’s me!
Once I get your form, we will schedule a call and make sure we are a match made in heaven.
call to adventure
special world
crossing the threshold
When you decide to build some design magic together, I will send over your invoice and contract. Payment plans are always a possibility, so don’t be afraid to ask!
entering the special world
Once everything is filled out and sent back to me, it's time to get started! I will send over some magical homework so we can both get crystal clear on your brand and your growth goals. This is the start of your Heart Library.
tests, allies, enemies
We will build a purposeful strategy that includes your brand story, archetype, values, goals, positioning, target audience, competitor analysis and inspiration. Along with a creative direction.
revelation
Once we pick your dream direction, I will start the design process. After I work my magic, I will design all of the collaterals we decided on.
do you offer payment plans?
Absolutely! Branding and web design are big investments, and I want to make that journey as smooth as possible for you. We typically start with a 50% deposit upfront, creating a solid foundation for our collaboration. When the project blooms into its full beauty, we wrap it up with the remaining 50%. Now, if the idea of breaking it down into more digestible bits feels better for you, we can absolutely chat about customizing a plan that aligns with your budget. Your brand's growth should feel as comfortable as your favorite sweater, so let's make the financials a breeze. Just give me a shout, and we'll find the perfect payment rhythm for you!
who have you worked with before?
I've had the pleasure of collaborating with a diverse range of clients, including some well-known brands like Guerlain, Dior, and Givenchy. These experiences have been invaluable, shaping my skills and approach. However, what truly lights up my creative journey now is working with individuals who appreciate a more intimate and soulful design experience. I've found a deep passion in helping sensitive and introverted people express their essence through their brand.
how long will we work together?
Fantastic question! The timeline of our collaboration depends on the unique elements you choose. For our branding journey, it usually dances around 8 weeks. For web design coupled with branding, we're looking at up to 12 weeks, depending on which collateral pieces we're weaving in.
And for those of you who are ready to make your mark on the world now, I offer design intensives – a kind of creative fast track for those eager to launch their dreams into the digital universe.
My commitment to you goes well beyond the completion of the final design. I personally offer a 6 and 12-month check-in, creating a space for you to reach out, ask questions, seek guidance, or simply share updates. I'm not just a service provider; I'm your creative partner in this ongoing journey of growth and self-discovery.
how soon should i book?
Ah, the golden question! For custom projects, we will have to talk about it before booking to find a start date that fits both our needs. Since I focus on one client at a time, you might need to wait a bit for the current chapter (aka project) to conclude before we dive into yours.
So, when's the best time? Sooner is always better! Now, for design intensives, we'll need a comfy two to four weeks to prep. I'll send over some strategy and/or copy documents, and then we can step into this creative adventure together. Whether you're planning ahead or immersing yourself in the moment, let's ensure your brand story unfolds just the way you envision it in our cozy design space!
can i edit my website on my own?
Absolutely! I exclusively work with Showit because it's as user-friendly as a well-worn bookmark in your favorite novel. My aim is to empower you with complete autonomy over your site and content post-project. I've got a stash of how-to videos to make it a breeze, and I'm just a message away for any questions that pop up along the way.
I'm ready too! You can send me your inquiry, sharing a glimpse of you and your business. Next, we can hop on a call (if you fancy) or keep it cozy with messages – it's entirely up to you. Once we're both confident it's a perfect fit, I'll whisk up a bespoke brand proposal just for you.
