Hi friends, I'm Emily, owner of Quiet Land Studio.

Prior to founding my studio, I studied graphic design and fine art at Huntington University. After graduating in 2011, I spent the next several years exploring the endless ways graphic design can be used to educate, influence, and communicate. Along the way I discovered a love for hand lettering, traveled to Melbourne, Australia to study typography, and worked in the digital imagery department at adidas. I later spent two formative years as an Artist in Residence in Nashville, Tennessee before moving back to my home state of Indiana.

I currently live in Indianapolis with my husband, John, and spend my days building design solutions for passionate clients and individuals. When I’m not working or creating art, you can find me thrifting, hiking, or watching Chopped. If you ever find yourself in the Indianapolis area, feel free to reach out! I’d love to meet you and grab coffee.
