"Carla consistently produces designs that deliver results. She is one of the most proficient designers, as well as thoughtful marketers, I've collaborated with during my career. No assignment, no matter how minor, is overlooked. She brings a unique curiosity and thoughtfulness to the work she undertakes. I would highly recommend her to any business!"

Helena W.

She has truly mastered the blend of creativity and strategy to continuously exceed expectations and wow our clients and prospects (as well as us!)."

Jenn S.

Her attention to detail is outstanding and the speed at which she delivers high-quality work is unmatched. Her creativity, versatility and proactive mindset make her invaluable!"

It’s rare these days to find the work ethic she brings to the table, and her portfolio is top-notch. I would highly recommend her!"

How we’ll work together

Meet Carla, the person behind Meika

It all started at age 10 with a Microsoft Word font obsession. Today, that passion is backed by over 7 years of experience leading brands in industries like healthtech and finance.

I know that to make an impact, the design has to be ready when the opportunity is. That's why I founded Meika: to bridge the gap between high-quality design and the speed of modern business. As a one-person studio, you get direct access to senior expertise (and the occasional guest appearance from my office pets).

If it involves design, I’m your person! I act as your single point of contact for the full spectrum of design that a growing business needs: from branding and high-performance Webflow sites to go-to-market materials and presentations. While I don’t handle 3D or complex motion graphics, I specialise in everything else required to keep your brand scaling at speed.

You secure a block of my time each month for a predictable investment, and I become your go-to partner for ongoing design needs.

  • Choose your plan.
  • Submit requests and feedback through your custom workspace. You get unlimited revisions with the retainer plan.
  • Receive your designs in no time! My turnaround usually ranges between same day to two days delivery.

Retainers start with a 3-month minimum commitment, then continue on flexible 30-day rolling terms.

When we speak, we'll determine if the ongoing retainer model is the perfect fit for your goals, or if a focused one-off project would serve you better.

It's straightforward:

  • We start with a call to agree on what you need, the timeline, and the budget.
  • I design the solution and present it to you.
  • We refine it over two rounds of included revisions.
  • At the end, you receive all files, organised and ready for use.

If you need changes beyond those two rounds, we'll agree on a fee for the extra work.

When we speak, we'll determine if the project sprint is the perfect fit for your goals, or if a retainer partnership would serve you better.

My core toolkit is Adobe Creative Suite (so, all Adobe apps!), Figma, and Canva. For Webflow projects, I'll need an designer invite to your existing team.

I’m adaptable and can work with your team’s preferred tools, though any required software subscriptions outside my standard toolkit would need to be provided or covered by you.

No, my work is not AI-generated. All creative concepts, strategies, and final designs are crafted by me, personally.

I may use AI-assisted features within professional tools (like Photoshop's editing tools) to enhance efficiency in the production phase. For example, I may use Photoshop's AI feature to remove a background object.

I do not use generative AI platforms (like Midjourney or ChatGPT) to generate visual concepts, layouts, or final artwork.

Transparency is key: we can discuss your comfort level with any AI-powered tool features before any work begins.
