FROM PASSION TO PURPOSE.
Kamloops Graphic Designer & Brand Identity Studio
Meet the designer behind MH Design Co. Helping businesses build strong, cohesive brand identities that connect, convert, and last.
my Origin story...
Hey, I’m Matthew, though most people call me Mart. My love for design started young, cutting out snowboard magazines and sketching logos in my bedroom. What began as a passion for boards and branding turned into a career in graphic design.
Born and raised in a small town in Ontario, I flew across the country and found the place I now call home, Kamloops. I attended Thompson Rivers University, graduating from their Digital Art and Design program in 2012. I then spent nearly a decade working in sign shops, promotional companies, and with design teams, learning how to make ideas work both on-screen and in the real world.
In 2023, I left the 9-to-5 grind and took a leap of faith to launch MH Design Co. Now I get to work one-on-one with clients to help their brands build strong identities, guide new ones in finding their voice, and bring ideas to life.
Design has always been about balance for me. Creativity and strategy. Work and play. Whether it's a client project or a concept of my own, the goal is always the same: create something that connects.
