About Laura Seed, Founder of Inner Wild Studio
Creative multidisciplinary graphic designer and illustrator
For the past 5 years I have helped independent businesses create their dream brands. I know small business inside and out because as well as being a graphic designer I have owned multiple small businesses. I studied graphic design because I wanted to be able to take my artwork and use it to either sell a skill or product or turn it into a usable item turning my creations into a thriving business.
I know how hard it is to be a small business, motivate yourself, pick yourself up every morning and work hard because I've been there. I never had to get a 9-5 job because I was able to turn my multiple skills into thriving online businesses. From the get go as soon as I left college I already had a number of clients one of them being Kelly’s Mountain Brew - a craft beer manufacturer that had their beers in Lidl, Aldi and Tesco around Ireland.
My Approach
When you hire me you're getting somebody who has been in your shoes and can relate. I want you to feel like you leave with not only an amazing brand but also the skills and expertise to build your brand yourself without needing external help. Agencies tend to take advantage of people and the work is sadly usually given to an intern or somebody with less experience. When clients work with me we build relationships that last because we both want the same end goal: a soulful brand that embraces your Inner Wild Fire.
My Experience
I’ve worked with hundreds of small businesses and independent companies including FMI, So Much Marketing, Dynamic Media Solutions, Niall Tyrrell, Cauldron Candles, Ahimsa, Rosy B Blends and many more. My experience is vast and ranges from website design, brand identity to product photography and illustration. There is nothing I haven’t done and I’m able to take the whole project on from start to finish.
One of the main pain points I noticed with clients was that they need to continuously pay somebody, there is no system put in place to teach them everything they need. I’ve been on the other side of that as well.
Who I Can Help
Creative people with an artistic brain that may struggle to put their work into the digital format. Businesses that are ethical, sustainable or in the mindfulness and holistic space.
If your main goal is to help others with your products or services or inspire somebody then lets work together!

"Laura did a fantastic job of re branding my business. she really understood what I was looking for & was a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend Laura & I look forward to working with her again"
Niall Tyrrell | www.nialltyrrell.com
"Laura worked with me on a complete rebrand of my website and logo. I had lots of criteria and ideas as to the direction but was not sure which avenue to pursue. Laura instantly could see what my work and brand was about and designed and executed the prefect logo that represented and also interpreted exactly what my work was about . Laura is very creative and completely redesigned my website to make it look dynamic and current, peeling it back to make it accessible and user friendly for device and laptop purposes . I would highly recommend her as she listens very carefully to the briefs required and delivers 150%. She worked extremely hard and was always very dedicated and patient. I was extremely happy with the finished results which she delivered well on time. I am forever grateful to her, as she also pushed me in directions that I was unsure of to begin but now, I am absolutely thrilled with all of the results."
Stephen Finnegan

FMI | Kathrina Bentley
"I hired Laura in the summer of 2017 to assist with rebranding FMI. From day one Laura took hold of every element involved in a major rebrand project. Laura learnt our core values very quickly and continues to interrupt them in all pieces of artwork and design she creates. Our Field Marketing business is very broad, with many elements to consider when supporting a company of our size (800-1000 employees) and 3 offices. Our busy marketing department has multiple demands across all platforms, videography, photography, social media, website, internal & external communications. All of which are supported by Laura our graphic designer. Her wonderful positive attitude means Laura is a joy to work with. Laura is a part time contractor for us however I consider her an extension of my department and our FMI family. We were lucky to find her!"
