Woodford Design Studio is the graphic design work of Tracy Brockhouse.

Doing a deep dive into other professions and creatively telling those stories is the joy of being a graphic designer. Throughout this career I have learned a great deal about the following industries and ways to make them shine:

hotels / restaurants / interior designers / wedding venues / caterers / lawyers / rug and furniture makers / tea houses and spas / jam makers / florists and farmers / authors / musicians / schools / fitness studios / bakers / non-profits / etc.

Varying places have also widened my perspective and influenced my work. From conferences to work trips, graphic design has taken me to NYC, Napa Valley, Vancouver, Deer Valley, Cabos San Lucas, and San Diego. At one point or another I have called the following places home and they have all shaped my career as a designer:

  • NASHVILLE: High School Internship at design firm in hometown

  • INDIANA: B.A. in Fine Arts & Graphic Design at I.U. Bloomington

  • LONDON: Work study at small design firm

  • CHICAGO: Graphic design production work

  • ATLANTA: Creative Circus graphic design graduate

  • NORTH CAROLINA: First job at graphic design firm

  • MINNEAPOLIS: Freelanced and visited as many small studios as possible

  • LAS VEGAS: Worked in a small design firm as well as a larger ad agency

  • NORTH CAROLINA: Formed bluebird design studios, making invitations (the intricate, unexpected and delightful kind)

  • MAINE: Home Sweet Home

After freelancing at several firms, bluebird design studios has landed in the Woodfords Corner area of Portland, Maine.

Now called Woodford Design Studio, the journey of creating effective design solutions for companies big and small continues.
