Brains, Talent, and a Little Chaos

Active. Fun. Creative.

Not necessarily in that order of course

Nestled in the heart of California’s Santa Cruz Mountains, the studio may be a one-person operation, but it goes toe to toe with the big dogs. I handle the design, strategy, and creative direction, and when a project calls for extra firepower, I call in a trusted squad of amazing collaborators — from print specialists and web developers to copywriters and social media pros. Together, we bring big ideas to life, crafting work that’s thoughtful, polished, and just a little bit magical.

Juliann Klein

Owner/Creative Director

I’ve always had a thing for good design — not just how it looks, but how it works. With a degree in Graphic Design from San Jose State and over 25 years in the world of design, development, and client partnerships, I’ve learned how to blend creativity with strategy to bring ideas to life in a way that actually makes sense (and looks good doing it).

When I’m not sketching, brainstorming, or keeping projects on track, you’ll probably find me out on the trails — mountain biking, chasing a little adrenaline, or heading to the mountains for a ski day. I bring the same curiosity and energy to those adventures as I do to my work. Whether I’m in the studio, on two wheels, or flying down a slope, I’m all about keeping things moving — creatively and literally.

“Juliann and the team at Klein Design are AWESOME. The results of their fantastic work have always exceeded my expectations. They do their best to accommodate deadlines and budgets as well, which is always a plus. Can’t say enough about Klein Design other than to give them a try.”
