About

One designer, doing the actual work.

I'm Tom, and Tixely is my brand and visual identity studio for early-stage startups. The person you talk to is the person designing your brand. No account managers, no hand-offs. Just me, with Bell the cat supervising.

Why Tixely exists

Buying design for the first time shouldn't feel like a gamble.

Most founders I talk to are doing this for the first time. They've got a budget somewhere between a few hundred and a couple of thousand euros, a launch date, and no idea what a “brand identity” should actually cost, or what they'll get at the end.

I've been designing since I was 10, so I built the studio I'd want to hire: fixed packages with prices on the page, a process you can read in a minute, and a short video instead of a discovery call.

In a world of AI sameness, I think your brand deserves actual thought behind it. That's the part I care about most.

How I work

Three things I don't compromise on.

No calls, no guesswork

A short questionnaire and a video walkthrough replace the discovery call. You'll always know what happens next.

Transparent pricing

Fixed packages, known upfront. The price you see is the price you pay, with no proposal to wait for.

Direct access

You work with the person doing the work, always. First reply within 24 hours, any day of the week.

The honest bit

Small on purpose.

Being a one-person studio means you get direct access and real attention, and it also means I can't be everything to everyone. If your project needs a large-scale, multi-market rollout, an agency is probably a better fit. And if I'm simply not the right fit for your project, I'd rather say so upfront than take on work I can't do justice.
