Our story

Perkolate Design Studio

‘Percolate’ describes the process of ideas gradually forming, developing, and becoming clearer over time. When ideas are allowed to percolate, insights and solutions emerge naturally rather than being forced. This is the core of our Perkolate state of mind.

Perkolate was founded in 2016 by Marelise Jacobs, a graphic designer from Johannesburg, South Africa. With a background in busy publishing companies, Marelise understands the value of clear communication. The success of any project depends on how well the audience understands your message.

We love working with Perkolate Design Studio! They are really helpful and communicate each detail throughout the project, they take a vision, and the designs and graphics exceed expectations. Superb value for money and highly recommended.

Bernadette Rigney

Fability – Johannesburg, SA

Thank you Perkolate Design Studio! We have been extremely happy with our experience working with them. They have helped us design everything from a postcards and banners to creating a new logo. They are quick to respond and easy to communicate with (This is especially important to us since we are US based). The design ideas are fresh and unique. I can’t say enough positive things. We are so happy we found them!

How do you want to tell your story?

Begin every day with a new sheet of paper.

Creativity needs freedom,
focus, and fun.

To see from a new angle, sometimes the best
approach is to step back and view things with
fresh eyes and an open mind.

Freedom

Freedom means not being defined
by a title, but to create your own identity.

Focus

Focus means not getting distracted
while working towards your goals.

Fun

Fun means doing the things you love.
