About Misha
Building with Passion
A creative with an eye for elegance and
a mind for strategy.
I’m Misha, a creative director and designer based in Cape Town. For over a decade, I’ve helped brands grow through strategic, visually intelligent design, from brand identities to campaign rollouts.
My background spans layout, art direction, and system-level design, enabling me to lead projects that are not only visually stunning but also cohesive, intentional, and built to last. Whether I’m building a new identity or directing creative across a campaign, I bring a calm, collaborative presence to every project. This is not designed for design’s sake. Its direction is clear, strategic, and rooted in meaning.
Who I work with
Brands that care about how they show up and why it matters.
I work best with purpose-driven founders and teams who value design as a long-term investment and seek creative clarity to express their brand with depth and intention.

Here’s what past clients have shared about working together
Misha not only captures the brief, but she also captures what's not in the brief. I've used Misha for a number of projects, and her designs always capture the soul of the project. On top of that, Misha is professional, highly creative and is quick and reliable - I'll keep working with her!

Misha was an absolute pleasure to work with, both professionally and personally, and consistently went above and beyond what was required at all times. The standard of work received was impeccable, well thought-through, and the turnaround time was just as impressive. I would choose to work with Misha again for any future design work, and would highly recommend her and her business.
