The details:
Collaborating directly with clients, I love creating functional and engaging graphics for both print and web.
My goal is to spark conversation, add value to, and expand upon branding through strong design.
Hello there.
I'm Ilana Lowy, a Maryland based graphic designer, specializing in branding, marketing and surface pattern since 2005.
Originally a product designer for mass retailers, I worked my "9 to 5" alongside freelancing for local advocacy groups for years. Through this intimate platform of collaboration, I found my passion for creating beautiful, purposeful logos & imagery for small businesses.
Filled with natural light, SiriusXM radio, and a dog resting at my feet, my home studio is where concepts come to life.
Client feedback:
"I knew she was the real deal..."
I had such a great experience working with Ilana to design my new logo. From our first meeting, I knew she was the real deal because she asked all the right questions and really wanted to understand my business and what my goals were for the logo redesign. She is undoubtedly my first recommendation for design and I will be reaching out again soon for another logo for a separate business.

"Professional and exquisitely creative..."
We had the great pleasure of collaborating with Ilana on a logo for our brand new business. She was professional and exquisitely creative. She utilized our suggestions and incorporated her own unique artistic vision to create the perfect logo! Ilana was willing to meet with us numerous times to make sure every last detail was perfect. We felt understood, heard, and an equal part of the process. Her work was quick and flawless. We are thrilled with the final product. We would definitely use Ilana's graphic design services again and would highly recommend her to everyone!

I had the pleasure of working with Ilana to create a logo for the business my sister and I started. We spent a good amount of time talking through the design and she was clear on her process and the time line to make things happen. She was flexible on going back and forth to make a few changes, but honestly, she did exactly what we wanted on the first pass! She was responsive and followed the time line she had given to get the project completed. It was also great that she sent everything over in several formats. It was an absolute pleasure working with her and her creativity surpassed all of my expectations.

"Immediately understands my vision..."
Ilana has designed two logos as well as a tee shirt graphic for me, and has consistently been creative, attentive, meticulous, and delivered a final product that far exceeded my expectations. This is saying a lot because while I am not artistic, I'm creative and have strong opinions that I am not always great at describing. It's as if Ilana immediately understands my vision, and makes it even better than I ever could have imagined. I will never turn to anyone else for my graphic design needs!

Ilana was super easy to work with!! She took the time to chat with me over the phone and truly listened to what I was looking for in a logo refresh.
