Erin Hamilton
Creative Director
Erin has been designing brand identity systems and websites for broad range of clients for more than 20 years. While studying economics at the University of Michigan, she took a part-time job at a design agency and fell in love with graphic design.
Leaving agency life behind, she moved from Ann Arbor to Anchorage, Alaska in 2001. Her solo practice has grown into an award-winning brand strategy & design studio. Her work has been recognized locally and nationally, and she is known for producing consistently high-level design. Her multi-disciplinary firm works closely with clients to craft brand experiences, expertly tailored to connect on an emotional level with the target audience.
Erin is a founding member of the American Institute of Graphic Arts (AIGA) in Alaska. She is a past president of the Board of Directors and currently serves on the chapter's Advisory Committee. She has been a panel participant and workshop teacher at the AIGA National Leadership Retreat, served on the national steering committee for the AIGA Women Lead Initiative, and is a reviewer and guest presenter in the University of Alaska's graphic design program. In October 2019, she was featured in GDUSA as a 2019 “Designer to Watch”. In 2021 she was appointed by Mayor Austin-Quinn Davidson to the Anchorage Municipality’s Urban Design Commission. She currently sits on the board of the Alaska Design Forum, the fundraising committee for Sitka Fine Arts Camp, and AIGA’s National Chapter Advisory Council.
