We involve our clients in every step of the design process and work collaboratively to find creative solutions.

Meet the founder

Hi, I'm Julia, the founder & creative director of To Be Honest! I'm grateful to say that I've been running my own design studio for 11 years and have had the opportunity to work in various design fields. It's been an incredible journey to see my passion for design come to life, and I feel blessed to be doing what I love every day.

Working with amazing clients who share my vision has been a privilege, and what really amazes me is creating successful brands and turning them into holistic experiences. There's nothing quite like seeing a brand come to life and watching people connect with it on a deeper level.

Kind words

Julia brings two very valuable skills to our joint projects: The curiosity to listen to the other person to better understand their needs and motives. And the calmness to deal with feedback and criticism in a constructive way - which is sometimes quite difficult, especially for us designers. Julia always remains aware of what branding is really all about: the expressing an identity that her customers can really identify with. And she remains persistent and patient until that moment this moment is reached. This makes Julia an excellent designer - and a very wonderful person.
