Kylie Gould

Director & Founder

With over 15 years of experience leading strategy-led design across the financial services, corporate, and lifestyle sectors, Kylie is known for her ability to translate complex ideas into compelling, intelligent brand experiences.

Since launching Creatik in 2008, Kylie has helped shape some of Australia’s most trusted and enduring brands, including Challenger, JP Morgan, TAL, Sydney Airport, Blackmores, Subaru and Zurich. Her approach blends big-picture thinking with meticulous attention to detail, backed by a strong belief in the power of design to build credibility, connection, and commercial impact.

Kylie is a hands-on creative leader who works closely with clients and teams alike. She’s passionate about building brands that are not only beautiful, but also purposeful and practical, brand systems that work just as hard in a PowerPoint deck as they do in a national campaign.

Her work has been recognised with multiple national and international design awards, and in 2024 she was honoured to serve as a judge for the Transform Awards Europe, evaluating some of the world’s best rebranding and brand development work.

Kylie is a sought-after voice in the areas of brand strategy, communication design, and the evolving role of creativity in professional services.

Louise Thomas

Strategy Director

With her keen strategic focus, Louise is our brand strategy and naming specialist. And resident wordsmith. Yup, she loves words and has a Good Design Gold tick to prove it. 

For Louise, it’s about finding insights to create meaningful brands and the importance of words in branding. 

“I relish the learning curve that goes with immersing myself in each new project to understand the nuances of their world. Getting to grips with the challenges they face and unravelling the problems.” 

The best part of her job - the thrill of finding the right words for a brand. 

She brings extensive experience in brand, design and marketing. And has worked at global brand design consultancies in London, Johannesburg and Sydney. 

Her brand experience includes London Underground, Guinness, Toyota, Qantas, Blundstone, the University of Newcastle, Zurich, Subaru and Kissed Earth.

If you're a freelancer with a talent for creating beautiful design in Word and PowerPoint – or in Adobe – we have an abundance of work waiting for you.

We are regularly seeking passionate people who are capable of creating outstanding presentations, beautiful templates and documents, original design, captivating motion graphics, banners and web design. 

Our studio is based in Sydney's southern suburbs and we operate both Mac and PC. The opportunity exists to work in the studio or remotely depending on the size and nature of the project, and because we're small we get to make and break our own rules – as long as we get the job done.
