Color Hunt Challenge! Staying constantly creative definitely requires a lot of effort. Our team took on the Color Hunt Challenge to get inspired by what we find around us.

Screens off, and eyes open. Which color is your vibe?

Ready, set, go!

We have turned our cow☀️rk days into a ritual by hopping around the best spots in Grand Rapids to keep the momentum high. It is the perfect mix of the usual and the new. Do you have a mid-week tradition? Any good lounge spot recs in GR? We are scouting for next week 👀

2026 is already moving at full speed. Like every small studio, our portfolio is currently playing catch-up while we are busy in the thick of the creative process.

We are finally coming up for air and will be sharing some of the work we have been building lately. Stay tuned. ☀️

Creating a custom suite of icons for Yarrow Joy Wellness was gratifying in so many ways. These icons serve as a bridge between nature, culture, and the wellness experience, translating the brand’s philosophy into a meaningful visual language.

Each mark was crafted with specific textures and linework to ensure that even the smallest touchpoint feels warm, joyful, and deeply connected to the earth. While this suite is only one piece of the larger identity we built, it is a vital component of the system. It represents our commitment to design that doesn’t just look good, but feels rooted in a story.

We look forward to sharing more of the full Yarrow Joy Wellness system soon!

As this year wraps, we are thankful for the people we met and the projects we built together. This year pushed us, shaped us, and helped us grow stronger as a creative team thanks to our clients who trusted the process and challenged our thinking.

What are we carrying into the new year?

Curiosity, strategy, and even more collaboration.

Happy New Year ✨❄️

Hey, it’s Madison. Come and chill with me today.

Calm vibes, coffee breaks, and the quiet wins that keep the creative flow going. Not every day is busy or glamorous. Sometimes it's just right.

Featuring my OOTD, creative morning routine, and an afternoon stroll 🌿☕✨

The last week of our birthday month is here and we have been full of appreciation and grateful for our friends, family and clients who have made our 5 year journey so incredibly worth it.

We celebrated with tapas, cake, champagne and confetti.

This coming year will be just as gratifying and full and we can’t wait. We’ve got field trips planned, exciting projects, and collaborations lined up. Let’s gooooo!

Happy 5th Birthday to Sol Design! ☀️
