FOUNDER & DESIGNER
ABOUT KYRA
My name is Kyra - I am a creative soul, a forward thinker, a thriller & fantasy reader, a mum to my gorgeous son, and a gal who can never decide which hair colour to stick with.
I’ve always had a deep love for creativity — whether it was sketching, rearranging rooms just to see what felt “right,” designing vision boards, or designing moodboards for imaginary brands long before I ever started a business. I’ve always had this itch to make things better. Eventually, I realised my love for aesthetics and problem-solving could actually be my job. And just like that, Valiant Design Studio, now known as Ivory Ember Studio, was born.
What I love most about my work is the people I get to work with. I know firsthand how much love, energy, and late nights go into building a business. That’s why I pour the same energy into crafting designs that don’t just look good - they work. Whether it’s a sleek, functional website or a brand identity that feels spot on, my goal is to make the process simple and exciting for you.
And here’s the deal: I started my business because I genuinely believe good design can change everything. It’s not just about pretty pictures (though, let’s be honest, I’m all about a clean, minimal aesthetic). It’s about creating something that makes you feel proud to put yourself out there. So if you’re feeling overwhelmed by design or not sure where to start - don’t stress. That’s where I come in. Together, we’ll create something that represents your brand and makes you say “Yep, this is it.”
