who we are

Who we are

The Black Canvas team is a bright and energetic group of talent, who live and breathe creative expression. Our work atmosphere is relaxed and fun, and we all love what we do. Together, we have many years of experience in graphic design, branding and web design. Black Canvas is a team of enthusiastic, highly credentialed professionals who consider it a privilege to help organisations bridge the gap between business direction and creative expression.


From your logo to your print collateral, to your online presence – we do the lot. Our clients love the fact that there is seamless transition of their brand from one element to the next. It is the reason why our brands look so good! 


When a brand is positioned consistently it creates recognition and increases awareness. The outcome is confidence of presentation and a brand that has a momentum of equity.

We’re sisters, but we don’t fight. We have similar skills, but we are quite different. We have worked together for years and still choose to holiday together as well.


We believe great things can be achieved and there can be many advantages when working with the ‘family-force’.


The important thing is finding like-minded people to do business with - those who share the same goals, passions and ideals, whether they are related or not. 


Thankful and blessed to work and create together.

Frequently asked questions

  • How long does it take to create a logo?

    The creative process for a new logo usually takes two weeks from receipt of your deposit.

    GET IN TOUCH
  • Is a logo design included when you design a business card or website?

    No, it is important to establish a logo first. We place a lot of emphasis on the logo design, as all other branding flows from this.

    GET IN TOUCH
  • How much does a logo cost and what does that include?

    Our logos are custom designed, tailored to the individual needs and requirements of your business, organisation or event. We spend many hours researching, designing and refining the mark that will represent your company for many years to come. Along with these concepts we will present ideas on how your brand might look in application.


    We can send you some information on our logo designs and branding packages - just get in touch! 

    GET IN TOUCH
  • What is branding?

    Branding is the consistent look and feel of your business through the various points of contact you have with potential customers, staff and the general public.

    GET IN TOUCH
  • Can you help me name my business?

    Yes, we can help name your new business venture. Our copywriters would be involved in this process and would be undertaken at an additional cost.

    GET IN TOUCH
  • Who registers my business name?

    Registering your business name is up to you. We will not commence logo design unless your name is registered with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC). If you are unsure about this process, please seek assistance from your accountant, lawyer or trade mark attorney. Once your logo is designed you can register this as a trade mark to provide legal protection against imitators and give you exclusive use of the name and brand. This process is the responsibility of the individual.

    GET IN TOUCH
  • Can Black Canvas help me with marketing?

    Our expertise is in designing the collateral for marketing. We can call on our marketing partners should you require a marketing plan or advice. We enjoy working directly with Marketing Managers of larger organisations.
