Hi, I’m Cicely
During my eight years in the field, I’ve designed for a range of industries including education & edtech, healthcare & mental health, NGOs & human rights, film & events, coaching, sustainability & renewable energy, legal, travel & hospitality, fashion & e-commerce, AI & robotics.
Raised by an artist and gardener in the English and Welsh countryside, I moved to Paris to study Art History and French Translation. My earlier career in copywriting and education in Vienna, Bangkok, and Berlin, eventually led me to the world of design where I now work on the north Portuguese coast 🌊
Testimonials
Leading our design work, Cicely is reliable, efficient under time pressure, and a joy to work with.
Cicely’s on-point visual brand system gave our festival instant legitimacy. The custom logo became immediately recognisable, our best marketing tool, especially on the bold posters around Berlin.
Her gorgeous social media templates for English, Arabic, and German engage our audience and speed up our team process.
Théo Perrot
SOCIAL MEDIA MANAGER / PALINALEWorking with Cicely on my branding was an absolute joy. The process was smooth, inspiring, and genuinely collaborative from start to finish.
Cicely brought so much creativity to the table — she really listened to my ideas, added her own expert guidance, and explored thoughtful iterations that pushed the brand in all the right ways.
Her clear framework made it easy to stay on track, while still leaving space for play and exploration. I felt supported and creatively energised throughout.
The final result feels exactly like the brand I had imagined — only better. It looks beautiful, connects deeply with the message, and works from a client perspective too. Couldn’t recommend her more.
