Fierce Strategic Design

Behind every brand we build is a woman with a story worth remembering. This is where ours begins.

Brandy’s Story

Every business has a story. Somewhere between templates, trending audio, and AI generated everything, a lot of brands are starting to lose theirs.

Mine started in the summer of 2020, in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic, fresh out of design school, with no clients and no perfect moment waiting for me. So I made one. What began as helping friends and family with their branding turned into Brandelle Designs. By January 2021, after months in the Ice House Entrepreneurship Program, I'd won grant funding that made the whole thing real.

Here's what I've learned since. A business is never just its visuals. It's the decision to start the damn thing when it would have been easier not to. It's the late nights and the doubt that somehow turned into something real. When a brand is finally built with that same intention, something shifts for the woman behind it. Confusion becomes clarity. She stops questioning whether her work is enough and starts owning what she's actually built.

That's the work I do. Six years in, Brandelle Designs serves women-owned businesses across North Carolina and beyond.

Our Non-Negotiables

Fierce by Design 

Our studio was built for women who are done being overlooked and underbooked. The brands and websites we create are more than just pretty, they are strategic tools that attract the right clients and communicate your value before you ever say a word. 

Rooted in Story 

The most memorable brands are the ones that make you feel something. Before a single design decision is made, the story behind the brand is uncovered because that is what turns browsers into buyers and strangers into loyal clients. 

Be Unapologetic 

Every woman behind her business has worked too hard for far too long to go unnoticed. Our studio creates brands that position you to attract better clients, raise your prices, and grow with intention. 

Built to Last

Great design should grow with your business, not feel trendy or dated. We build brands and websites designed to grow with you and support your goals at every stage.

Design with Purpose

Every single font choice, color, layout decision all have a reason behind them, and that reason always connects back to your goals and your audience.

“My creativity lives in the quiet moments. In the corners of bookstores, in the pages of fantasy, in the soft hum of a rainy day. Always with my dogs nearby.”

The studio Dogs

  • Black dog with white paws lying on a gray dog bed with a pink and white paw and bone patterned blanket inside a room with wooden floors and wall paneling.

    Shadow

    Chief Nap Officer
    (2012–2025)

    Forever curled up under the desk in spirit. Shadow brought warmth, naps, and love to every workday. Her presence is deeply missed.

  • A black and white dog with one ear upright and the other floppy, sitting on a patterned rug in a living room, looking at the camera.

    Kade

    Barketing Manager

    Always alert, occasionally opinionated. Often found supervising projects from the sunniest spot in the room.

  • Cute puppy with alert blue eyes looking directly at the camera, sitting on a bed of fallen leaves and grass outdoors.

    Remi

    Director of Good Vibes

    Remi brings cheerful energy to the studio, lifts spirits on busy days, and ensures every visitor gets a warm greeting.

“Brandy is the absolute best! She helped design our logo, social media banners and business cards. Brandy took the time to get to know us as a company and individuals to create a clean logo. This coupled with her swift responses to our questions made our experience with Brandelle very enjoyable.”
