Hei, I’m Stephanie!

I’m a Graphic Designer based in Oulu.
I create brands, websites and print that are clear, welcoming and a little playful.

Project Highlights


Finpulse / UI/UX Design

A landing page redesign and CRM portal concept designed to help advisors manage clients. Complexity made simple, on desktop and mobile.

Am Grünen Bäumchen / Branding

Welcoming identity for a mental health support group. Built on trust and shared understanding, so joining feels easy.

IMIB-Network / Service Design

Service design to help international professionals find startup support. Clear pathways let people know what is possible and what comes next.

Unikko 2026 / Design Study

A hand-painted acrylic poster that pairs Bauhaus geometry with Finnish pattern design and its most beloved flower.

Why I do this work


Design isn’t just about looking good, it’s about feeling right.

I notice where people get stuck, in a menu, a form or a process, and find a clearer path. That habit shapes everything I make: clear structure first, then the details that make it feel right.

I work step by step, communicate directly and like a clear brief. I’m curious by nature, so outside work I explore Finland, learn languages and tinker with creative side projects.
