Studio Jelly is a full-service brand studio helping companies and organizations powerfully express who they are and what they’re about.
Brand exploration
Who are you?
What are you about?
What’s under the surface?
What gives your work meaning?
Brand expression
How do we express it in word and image?
How can others experience it and be
touched by it?
How do we tell your deep story?
David Kahl, Fully
Studio Jelly deeply listened and created a clear and powerful expression of who we are and why we’re here. They helped us know ourselves better and more confidently tell our story.
Kathleen Holt, Oregon Humanities
We never felt for a moment that the Studio Jelly team wasn’t deeply, thoughtfully, carefully listening, which translated into excellent work that is right and true and good.
Merritt Paulson, Portland Timbers
Hiring Studio Jelly is one of the best decisions we have made as an organization. Not marketing decision — best decision, period.
Wizipan Little Elk, Sicangu Co
Working with Studio Jelly has been an honor and privilege. Through words and symbolism, they’ve helped us turn our ideas into masterful stories of resilience and hope.
David Bronner, Dr. Bronner’s
Studio Jelly helped us explicate and manifest our soul in such an awesome way. They’ve been uniquely able to listen and translate who we are. Our success has been in no small part because of their work.
Sarah Hacker, Hacker Architects
Bigger than a brand identity, working with Studio Jelly gave us clarity of purpose. The work reflects our greatest aspirations and reminds us of who we are. It is a compass.
Andrea Durbin, Oregon Environmental Council
Delightful. Deep creativity, innovative thinking, and a sense of curiosity – a recipe for delivering incredible work and results.
Nolan Lienhart, ZGF Architects
Love working together. I really value the emphasis on not just a great deliverable, but building relationships. Able to get us to express aspirations and meaning often buried beneath the surface.
Blake Shell, Oregon Contemporary
Amazing. Studio Jelly cut through the details and got to the heart of what we do and why we do it. We are thrilled with the work.
Jay Walsh, Wikipedia
Simple creative concepts that bespeak huge and complex ideas. Emotional communication that connects with how people think and feel. Love working with Studio Jelly.
Jolinda Osborne, Oregon Friends of Jung
Wonderful. Able to listen for what’s important, and then give it a form and expression to make it meaningful to others, grow our audience, and advance our organization.
Dave Olsen, Starbucks
Jelly brings lots of knowledge, experience and insight to a conversation, and also can't wait to hear what you have to say because he knows you know a lot too. Jelly makes conversations big and deep, not small and shallow.
Mayra Arreola, Prosper Portland
A great experience. Great listening, inspiring process, collaborative, inclusive of community voices, and the final product was fun and relatable.
Eric Easom, AN2 Therapeutics
Insightful questions, careful listening, more questions, more listening, going deep. Paying attention to the essence and feel of what the org is about. 100% real.
Dana Whitelaw, High Desert Museum
Deep listening, relationships based on trust and respect. Pushed us to examine the roots of our work, and helped us powerfully articulate our vision. So inspired by our work together.
