Hi, I'm Kirsty
I'm Kirsty Ireton, the founder of Creatifly, a Taupo graphic design studio. With over 12 years of diverse design experience in branding, marketing, advertising, and web design, I bring a wealth of expertise to the table. Working with some of the biggest brands worldwide has given me a unique perspective on how to apply big concepts to businesses of any size.
For me, design is about more than just making things look good; it's about solving problems and effectively communicating ideas. That's why I always take the time to understand my clients' needs and goals before diving into any project.
My little Taupo graphic design studio offers big-picture thinking that will make a real difference for your businesses.
