I'm a Graphic Designer, Illustrator and Artist in my own right. A freelancer, serving clients all over South Africa and abroad. I'm a retro girl in torn jeans and sneakers, with wild hair jammin' to rock-classical compilations, a cat on my lap while sipping on chai tea. ​ Oogappel Design Studio supports local, loves handmade and cares for the community and environment. I believe in clean lines, uncluttered space, functionality, beauty, bending, breaking, building and pushing (mostly of boundaries and rules), but most of all having fun in all aspects of life. ​ So what's the name about you wonder? Well... it's simple really. I'v been blessed beyond belief with such amazing grace throughout my life's journey and it hit me one day... I am someone's favourite, someone's oogappel. The literal translation of this idiom is "Little guy of the eye." Look deep into someone’s eyes right now. Can you see your reflection? To see the tiny reflection of yourself in the centre of the other person’s eye, you have to get reeeaaalll close, right? By now your reaction should be, "whaaaaatttt !?" Because if I can see me in you, then you can see you in me too..." My mission is to get reeaaalll close to you and allow you to get close to me too so I can get the best understanding of what you need. My heartbeat is to make you smile by not only creating awesome stuff, but also creating an equally awesome experience just for you. ​ After all, you are the little guy in my eye... my oogappel.
