Design made for places people love to visit

I work with cities, museums, parks, shops, and restaurants
near the coast of Lake Michigan to create branded experiences to create designs that’s full of personality and impossible to ignore.

From hand-drawn maps to playful signage, bold brands to wall-sized murals — it’s all about helping your space come alive with great design and strategy.

Design that puts

to design for are:

Boutique Hotels,
Lodging, & Airbnbs

Head-turning murals,
wayfinding that works, and
walls that beg to be
photographed and shared.

From maps and mascots
to postcards and pins —
if it tells your story,
I can draw it.

Hey, I’m Amanda.

I’m a designer, illustrator, and muralist in the Chicago suburb of
La Porte, Indiana — a small vacation town with a big heart (and some pretty great lakes too). I specialize in design for places people love to visit.

With over 15 years of experience, I work with tourism and hospitality brands across Chicago, Northwest Indiana, and Southwest Michigan — and thanks to the magic of the internet, I also collaborate with businesses across the Midwest and beyond.

I bring big ideas to life with custom illustrations, bold colors, and strategy. I care deeply about creating visuals that help people feel something — welcomed, curious, inspired, and proud. If your space deserves that kind of impact, you’re in the right place.

Happy clients,
great vibes

She absolutely nailed it, both times! She is the ONLY choice for unique, whimsical design.

"I've worked with Amanda twice now - once for a t-shirt design for a coffee shop and once for branding/logo design for a new lodging company.
I can't want to work with her again
on additional projects!"

-Erin Harrell, IN the Dunes

Amanda makes the
impossible, possible!

“She applies real creativity in juggling different requests and points of direction, and the end result is always a beautiful, authentic expression of the brand. Amanda's designs are completely unique and far surpass the level of quality that you typically find with a local designer or online service. When you look at how important it is to start with that foundation, our clients get amazing longterm value from the logos she designs.”

-Sarah Highlen,
Grapevine Marketing

She took the time to listen to our
vision and the backstory of our generational farm business.

“Five Buds Farm hired Amanda to create a logo design for our farm and event venue. She created an intricate and detailed logo design that encompassed all of our ideas. We would highly recommend Region Design Co. to anyone needing graphic design and logo work.”

-Greg Allender, Five Buds Farm
