Let's talk

Business brains with
big imaginations.

We’re not the traditional agency model. We’re not a studio stacked with junior designers and rotating account managers. We’re Kim and Maranda, a two-person powerhouse that works shoulder-to-shoulder with ambitious founders and future-focused brands.

And when we say you work with us, we mean us.

About Whitelaw Mitchell

people

Kim Green

Kim Green

Development Director

Scottish born and a true creative at heart. Prior to partnering with Maranda, Kim founded Whitelaw Design in 2011 and has since grown it into a very ambitious studio with work and clients she’s incredibly proud of. When she’s not chasing after LLoyd or crafting with Maya, she’s nerding out, learning new code and translating concepts into the right technical approach and architecture.

Maranda Mitchell

Maranda Mitchell

Brand Director

California native, brilliant brand strategist and entrepreneur, Maranda is no stranger to starting fires. With a Limited Label Gin on the rocks to inspire the design process, you’ll find her in the early hours of the morning contemplating new ideas. She is passionate about business, expressing her inner “weird” and she’s endlessly fascinated by abnormal human behaviour (including her own).

Our approach

We always start with a conversation. No pressure, no pitches. Just time spent getting to know you and your business to make sure we’re the right fit for each other.

Once we’re in, we go deep. We’ll unpack what’s really going on behind the scenes and unearth what makes your brand magnetic.

Then, armed with sharp insights and a clear roadmap, we craft branding that’s both strategic and bold. Brought to life online with scroll-stopping appeal.

Big on clarity. Even bigger on care.

We get close to your business and we know that the best creative work comes from a real partnership and not charging by the hour. From brand strategy ideation and premium identity design to intelligent websites and AI integration, we help businesses go from stuck to scalable.

We’re here for the visionary launches, the pivots and the reinventions. The clients who want to elevate instead of stagnate.

We set the bar very high for ourselves. Ambitious is our core mindset and working with like-minded people and business owners is our first priority of business. Entrepreneurship is the pursuit of opportunity. It’s a beautiful and redemptive journey. We know, because we’re still on that journey.

Creative meets commercial.

We’ve spent over 25 years working across premium brands in all sorts of industries. Our roots are in design and development, but we’ve always cared about the business side the most.

That’s what makes our work different: it doesn’t just look good, it connects. It earns attention in the moments that matter, including the ones happening inside AI search. We’re constantly evolving to help our clients stay ahead. Not just on trend, but on point.

Why It Works
Because it’s just us. We’re nimble. We move fast. We keep things personal. You won’t get lost in the machine here. You’ll get our attention and our very best thinking from day one.

The good word.

We could talk all day about what we do but we’d rather let our clients do the talking. Here’s what it’s like to work with us, straight from the people who’ve been there.

They were able to help with strategy and thinking out a bit further than what we were going to do in the next 3 months. They’ve been able to solve lots of challenges that we’ve had and it’s always led to opportunity.

Whitelaw Mitchell review from Nigel Hobbs at Black NZ, Altitude Tours

They’re truly invested in what it is that you’re trying to achieve and to see if what they’ve done has actually generated the results they wanted as well, which in our case, it absolutely has.

Whitelaw Mitchell review from Sam at LucyKing

More than a project, it’s a partnership

We’re consultants and creatives.

Technologists and storytellers.

Design nerds with sharp business brains.


Give your business a creative edge.

Some clients hire us for a single solve. Others stay for the whole evolution. Either way, our goal is the same: help you grow, differentiate, and stay relevant in a rapidly changing world.

We’re Whitelaw Mitchell.

A design and technology company. Grounded in strategy, powered by AI, and led by two people who actually give a damn.
