Designs that don't swim in the same lame pond

Creative chaos.
Strategic design.

Branding, websites, visual experiences.

We help businesses stand out with design that's bold, intentional, and hard to ignore.

How we work

Poke Around

We dig into your business, your audience, your goals, and the things keeping you up at night.

Make a Mess

Ideas fly. Sketches happen. Concepts multiply. The creative process is rarely neat, and that's kind of the point.

Sharpen the Edge

Good ideas are easy. Great ideas survive ruthless editing. We refine the strongest concepts until they're clear, purposeful, and ready to work.

Take Credit

Go ahead. Tell everyone it was your idea. We won't say a word. We've got more adventures to tackle.

Our services

From thought experiments and concept to launch and beyond — trust the chaos.

Mr. Fishie at a cluttered studio desk, surrounded by the team: a donkey, a goat, a dog in a pirate hat and red coat, a black-and-white cat perched on the monitors, a cleaner wrasse in a fish tank, an orange kitten trying to open a case of more orange, and a paint horse wearing headphones, all amid sticky notes, coffee mugs, and design books.
What? You think this is AI? Maybe, you're AI.
Fact: These are only some of our actual kids. Come say Hi.

Less agency. More chaos.

We're not interested in safe. Safe is beige. Safe is forgotten. Safe rarely makes a splash.

Chaotic Fish Design is a small creative studio building brands and websites for businesses and ideas that would rather stand out than blend in. We mix strategy, bold design, relentless curiosity, occasional bouts of creative chaos, and a healthy dose of mischief to create work that's memorable, functional, and unmistakably yours. Think science experiment meets sketchbook, with fewer explosions and better typography. Sometimes weird. Always intentional.
