For the businesses who need a lil help.

The Ripple Studio

at The University of Louisville

We believe that all businesses, especially ones making an impact, deserve a solid, successful brand.

The Ripple Studio is a project started by Brackish, with the support of the UofL / Humana Health Equity Innovation Hub. with the mission of lifting up business making an impact. There are many ways to make an impact and change the world for the better. We’re focusing our efforts on Louisville-area startups, small businesses, and nonprofit organizations with less than $50,000 in funding, as well as those founded, led by, or serving individuals from underrepresented groups.

A Branding Program valued at $7,500 to jumpstart your mission.

We’ll work with you over the course of a semester (15-16 weeks) to strategize, plan, and create a cohesive brand that fits your needs. The process includes a brand exploration workbook, brand strategy and inspiration, and one full design day dedicated to your brand. At the end of the day, you’ll walk away with a brand identity, logo suite, color palette, and typography recommendations, plus additional collateral that fits your brand.

What it is.
