Solo Design Studio

Hello, it’s lovely to meet you. I'm Kate Moorhouse, a curious problem solver who focuses the minds of business owners. Creating a brand vision that’s creative and strategic. With over fifteen years of experience in branding, print and digital design I work across sectors and with businesses of all sizes but especially love working with small independents. Having worked within in-house studios and freelanced in design agencies, I set up my own studio in 2017 offering branding, digital and print solutions. I have also had the opportunity to work on product design and also room set photography, and art directing on set and on location. This experience gives me additional skills and contributes to different aspects of my graphic design work. My interest and experience in interiors help fuel my graphic design projects too. Each side of my business compliments the other with ideas for colour and form. I am a lover of simple design with a purpose together with bold shapes and colour. I aim to execute a clever idea in a simple way, my focus is to respect your ideas and to channel them into a clear brand strategy that is visual and full of personality. In 2024 I started creating my own artwork and have developed a homeware brand Solo. My style is based on my love for bold colours and plants. Bringing some joy to the everyday. I hand cut the elements from paper to start with to create organic shapes then create digital versions which are converted to wall art and fabric. My collections are available to buy on my online shop and retailers around the North West.
