How we work together
A partner, not a platform
Alex was designing before AI existed, doing it all by hand, the hard way. That’s where she learned how every small decision, a typeface, a color, the space around a word, changes how something feels. AI doesn’t understand the connection people have to those choices. It’s never felt them.
Today she uses AI to speed up her process. It doesn’t replace her taste, her touch, or the time she puts in to make sure the finished piece is a direct translation of what you need.

Time to understand you
Your business, your vision, your goals. Before anything gets designed, Alex learns what makes you you.
-
When your business does well, so do I
This is a partnership. Skapa is invested in how the work performs for you, long after the files are delivered.
-
On the schedule you want
Weekly check-ins or just the big moments. We meet as often as you like, so it ends up exactly right.
What we do
All services-
Website creation and hosting
A site that loads fast, reads well on a phone, and gets maintained for you if you would rather not think about it.
-
Branding
Logo, type, color and voice, made from scratch and packaged into brand guidelines you can hand to anyone.
-
Marketing materials
Business cards, flyers and signage that match the rest of you, designed and printed for you if you want.
-
Custom digital design
One off pieces: a dog portrait, a chore chart for the kids, a deck, whatever the moment needs.
-
UX/UI & product design
UX/UI and product design: digital products and tools, designed end to end with the people who actually use them.
-
Menu design
Menus people can actually read; priced, structured and typeset so the kitchen and the guest both win.

Alex
Alex is the designer behind every project that comes out of Skapa Design House. Some days that means building a restaurant a menu people can actually read; other days it's a brand system, a website, or a set of screens for a product team.

Product Design
Working with Alex was one of my favorite parts of my last job. I absolutely loved her energy and her creativity. With every product launch, she brought a can-do attitude that uplifted the entire team, no matter how heavy the workload. She led the launch of two products from 0 to MVP, somehow designing an optimal UI/UX that catered to a diverse set of end users.

Wedding Invitation Suite
Alex designed my daughter's wedding invitations, and from the start she took the time to really understand our vision. Beyond the invitation itself, she created a schedule card, a digital watercolor map, and a digital watercolor of the venue, which we had printed on vellum to wrap the whole set. We finished it off with a ribbon and wax seal, and the result was more beautiful than we could have imagined.
