A considered identity. An unexpected image. A story worth telling. The Studio connects Emerson’s branding, photography and content with Stacey’s interior design and styling, with Karl’s brand and market strategy, business leadership, systems and coordination through KSIG. Start with one specialty or bring the team together around your project.
The Studio is a KSIG Advisors brand, bringing business strategy, creative communication and interior design into one collaborative platform. Emerson and Stacey each lead their specialties; KSIG maintains the platform and coordinates shared engagements.
Business strategy & coordination
KSIG Advisors
Karl Ohlemann brings brand and market strategy alongside business and financial leadership. He connects positioning with logos, typography, websites, packaging, sales materials and communications, shaping a coherent customer-facing brand in collaboration with the team. KSIG maintains The Studio platform and coordinates shared engagements.
Emerson brings her photography practice and strategic communication background to brand identity, advertising, visual storytelling, photography and video. Emerson’s Creatives remains part of her individual creative identity.
Stacey brings interior design, materials and business ownership experience from Macadam Floor & Design and Nils Bernard. Her specialty connects interiors, furnishings, texture and styling with the way a space feels and photographs.
For a boutique or hospitality project, Stacey could shape the interior and styling; Emerson could create the photography, brand materials and launch content; KSIG could connect the business goals, budget, website and project coordination. Clients can start with one specialty or combine services around an agreed brief.
