Our website needed a new design. Melany took the time to clarify our goals, work with our vision and provide a seamless transition to the new website. The result was a high-quality design that is both user-friendly and beautiful. Powell River is fortunate to have such local talent!

Co-creating with Melany is a treat. For more than three years she has continually improved my websites and newsletters as well as designing layouts and covers for my books. She is a rare combination of helpful, efficient, and creative. Both her communication and design skills rate a gold star.

I loved working with Melany. She was able to take my abstract ideas and translate them into a final product that perfectly reflected my thinking. I have recommended her to friends and will definitely use her services again.

One of several memorable projects Melany did for me was the design of the illustrated map for my book, “A Dream of Giants: The Story of the Sunshine Coast Trail.” I valued Melany’s professionalism, attention to detail, creative ideas, and talent in bringing this project from idea to conception. She consistently exceeds expectations, delivering a final product that is creative and unique.

Melany understands the big and small picture of design projects — the importance of style and impression along with the necessity of process and structure. She’s 100 percent reliable and inspired in both practical and artistic matters and, as a result, produces high quality work. Professional and personal, she is the best designer I’ve worked with locally and beyond, in 25 years of publishing.
Sandra Tonn, Powell River Public Library
Melany excels as a graphic artist because she has both process and product expertise. Her creativity and artistic talent are enormous but it is her relationship and communication ability that make it feel easy to get to the perfect design. I have rarely had such a seamless experience nor found someone who can capture my ideas and turn them into a creative, appealing design so rapidly. Melany will be my go to for future projects.
