About

Ten years in-house. Five on my own.

I'm Marlo Cole. I spent a decade building identity systems inside two design agencies before going independent — partly to work slower, and partly because the best projects I ever touched were the small ones nobody else wanted: a single roastery, a single studio, a single shop that just needed one honest mark.

Cole Studio takes on six to eight identity projects a year. That's it — enough to give each one the weeks it needs, not the days it gets rushed into.
