KO Studio is a creative company on a mission to make brands magnetic. We blend radical ideas, bold design, and a playful twist of wowee to help businesses stand out, show up, and shine.
The “KO” is more than just a name — it’s our promise to empower the people behind the brands. We’re creative chameleons: thoughtful, strategic, and a little bit magic. We shape ideas, craft experiences, and design with purpose to shift perceptions, spark new conversations, and inspire positive change.
We’re not saving lives — but we are designing for impact. And we think that’s pretty cool.
We find joy in collaborating with the dreamers and doers — the people building brands that matter. We don’t believe in burnout-as-a-badge. We protect our creativity by working smarter, staying inspired, and having a whole lot of fun along the way.
At KO, we’ve made six promises that guide how we show up in our work, our culture, and our client relationships. Together, these values keep us grounded, joyful, and creatively on fire — Monday to Friday.
We bring ideas and brands to life with purpose — blending function and beauty. We partner with people and businesses who respect people, the planet, and possibility.
We deliver the wow — in design and in service. Our work is thoughtful, detailed, and delightfully unexpected. We lead with calm confidence and always aim to leave a lasting impression.
We dream big, stay curious, and chase the extraordinary. We set bold goals and find magic in the everyday.
We’re authentic, original, and unafraid to ask the big questions. We embrace the mess, own our mistakes, and never take ourselves too seriously.
Feedback is fuel. We grow from the hard stuff, stay open to change, and never stop evolving.
We design to spark conversations — and we nurture real relationships along the way. We check in, show up, and always treat people with kindness and respect.

I’ve worked alongside Kelly at one of Australia’s legendary independent ad agencies, and most recently engaging her design skills from her own studio. Now, as then, she is a first-rate designer with a wide range of capabilities, and the added advantage of being a thoroughly delightful human to work with.
– Matt Batten, Executive Creative Director
Kelly was an absolute pleasure to work with during my time at Hunter Water. She was the creative force behind many of our campaigns designs. She’s an expert at bringing brands to life, and can easily go from creating professional looking reports to vibrant and engaging advertising collateral. Kelly is a wonderful communicator and I would highly recommend her to absolutely anyone in need of branding and graphic design.

Kelly at KO Studio is exceptional to work with. She has a warm and engaging manner that immediately puts you at ease. Kelly approaches her work with confidence, expertise and a high level of professionalism. She listens carefully and engages fully. Kelly guided me through each stage of our design project with commitment, care and consideration and delivered far beyond my expectations.
