About Us
A brand is not what you say about yourself. It's what people remember when you're not in the room.
Most founders come to us at the same moment. They have something real, an edge they know can change things, and one chance to put it in front of the world without being forgotten.
We exist for that moment. We build brands that people remember, believe, and choose.
Who We Are
Courtney Kim Studio has worked with founders across beauty, wellness, lifestyle, and retail industry since 2009, from our base in Melbourne and with clients around the world.
The founder Courtney was a Creative Lead at Canva, where she shaped large-scale campaigns and localisation strategies across the Korean market, growing the user base from 200K to 2M between 2021 and 2026.
That experience sits behind names you may know. Across fifteen years across global markets, the through line has stayed the same. Strategy first, beauty always, and brands built to be wanted rather than just seen.

The codes we live by
Honesty and partnership
From the very first meeting, you get the truth. Honest advice, clear reasoning, and full transparency in what we recommend and what it costs. We work as a close partner, not a vendor, building trust through every stage and treating your success as our own reward. We never take that relationship for granted, and we genuinely cherish the journey we take with you.
Due diligence
We do the work behind the work. Every project starts with real research and a deep investment in understanding your company, your technology, and your audience. We use smart tools to pressure-test our thinking, so the decisions we make are backed by evidence, not guesswork.
Human-led design
AI lets us reach further and move faster than ever before. But intuition still belongs to people. Every decision we make stays human-led and human-centred, because the best brands are made to be felt, not just generated.
