Our Founder
Designing cult-status
lifestyle brands since 2020
Meet Lindsay Clarke, a Fashion Communications grad, brand and web designer, and our founder. Since 2020, Mariko Studio has been Lindsay’s home on the Internet: An atelier for visual narratives and a sought-after design studio for the who’s who of discerning lifestyle brands, like yours.
Founded in 2020, we’ve made our name designing cult-status lifestyle brands. (Hey, Saltyface fans.)
We’re for the visionaries—the ones who want to build brands that transcend trends and stand the test of time. Brands that are strategic. Authentic to you. Timeless, if we do say so ourselves.
Our Story
If you know us, you know meaning is a must-have in our brands. We founded Mariko Studio on the meaning of our founder Lindsay’s middle name. Japanese for “truth,” Mariko is what we imbue in every brand: We tell your story, the truth of your brand, through visual narrative.
Our Founder
Typeface-obsessed branding expert
Meet Lindsay
Our founder and lead designer, a woman obsessed with good typography and a good blazer. Forever creative, Lindsay made her formal foray into design at Toronto’s esteemed Ryerson University. A Fashion Communications major, she took a typography class and never looked back.
Today, Lindsay is known for her minimal but meaningful approach to design, marrying a timeless modernity with story-rich symbolism. She’s the visionary behind the Instagram-famous Saltyface brand, rescue dog-mom, and is probably listening to My Favorite Murder right now.
