About BoldFish

BoldFish Graphics Pty Ltd operates as a boutique marketing and graphic design studio, delivering branding, visual design, and communication strategies for a diverse client base that includes private sector firms, non-profits, and local government. The firm's business model is project-based, assembling dynamic teams from a pool of creative professionals like illustrators, programmers, and copywriters to meet specific client needs. Revenue is generated by providing bespoke creative solutions that help clients with brand development and market positioning.

Founded and led by Alison Harwood, who brings over two decades of experience, the company stands at the intersection of marketing strategy and design execution. Harwood's background combines a Bachelor of Commerce in Marketing with a subsequent Diploma in Graphic Design, a path that saw her transition from marketing management roles in tourism and services to pursuing her creative interests. This dual expertise allows the firm to offer solutions that are not only visually compelling but also strategically sound, aiming to drive revenue and growth for its clients.

The studio's service portfolio is comprehensive, covering brand management, identity systems, logo design, and rebranding. BoldFish develops a wide array of digital and print assets, including infographics, data visualizations, product data sheets, annual reports, and packaging. A key operational aspect is the integration of AI tools for research, strategy, and content creation, which allows for faster project turnarounds. The company also offers specialized services in illustration and brand storytelling, leveraging an in-house illustrator to create original characters, mascots, and conceptual cartoons for various applications, from websites to advertising campaigns.
