CREATIVE TO
THE CORE
At Apricot, we’re all about scaling brands—big or small—with creativity that hits the sweet spot between artistic and results-driven. If it needs to look good and work even better, we’re your people.
WHO WE ARE
We’re a rolodex of misfits, storytellers, and design nerds who live for good stories and even better creative. Every member of our team wears a lot of hats (and maybe a few mismatched socks), but that’s what makes us great.
We don’t just love what we do—we pour that love into every project we touch, approaching them with a mix of grit, creativity, and a whole lot of heart. If there’s a way to make it happen, we’ll find it—and we’ll have fun doing it.
HOW WE WORK
We believe every pixel has a purpose, and every design tells a story. Our approach blends strategy and creative elbow grease into designs that are as thoughtful as they are effective and content that isn’t just pretty; it’s powerful. Collaboration is at the heart of everything we do, so we’ll work with you every step of the way, digging deep, thinking big, and building something that’s authentic, impactful, and unmistakably you.
WHY CREATE WITH APRICOT?
The bottom line? We’re not just a creative studio—we’re your creative partner. We care about your brand as much as you do, and we’re ready to put in the work to make it everything you dreamed of (and maybe a little more). So, if you’re ready to take the leap, we’re here to help you stick the landing.
