HEY, NICE TO MEET YOU!

Grace Howard is a Graphic Designer and Illustrator based in Portland, Oregon. She has a love for creating brand identities, typography, illustration, and curating unique experiences. On her off time, she loves spending time with her two cats, Sokka and Katara, or going on walks through Portland's historic neighborhoods. 

WHAT I LOVE

BRANDING

I believe that a strong, successful brand starts with how people first interact with it. Creating interesting identities gives brands a unique voice and personality, reflecting the core values of a business. This messaging is so important in how we interact and identify with the world around us, and I love being apart of that!

TYPOGRAPHY

Amazing design is rooted in amazing typography. Typography not only elevates a design, but plays a quintessential role in turning an okay project to a great one. Type is the heart of what I do, and I believe should be the heart of a design. 

ILLUSTRATION

Illustration brings stories and ideas to life. Whether its hand drawn or digital illustrations, a sense of personality and humanity is added to a design.
