Gatherie is a creative studio specializing in strategy, branding, and website design. Whether you're starting from scratch or scaling what you've built, we build your brand with you, not just for you, so what comes to life is your vision, never a house style or a trend.
we think a lot about what actually makes people stay.
Well-designed is easy. And it doesn't set you apart the way it used to. What's rare, and what people actually connect to, is meaning: the values, the story, the point of view that they can identify with, and belong to. In a world this digital and this full of sameness, the brands that build a world around that go deeper, and last longer.
And all of it starts with the one thing only you have, your vision. So we protect it, because it's where the whole connection begins.
Equal parts strategist and designer, with an obsessive curiosity for what breeds brand obsession.
But founders don't just come for the branding. They come because we talk to them like a person, not a project, ask the questions no one else thought to ask, and because we treat their vision like it matters as much to us as it does to them. The brand is just how we show it.
Meet cassie pannier,
founder & creative director
With over a decade of design practice, Cassie leads every project from the first brain dump to execution, bringing sharp strategy and an outsider's eye to everything the studio builds.
Before Gatherie, she spent years in advertising and marketing, learning how people actually decide, what makes them notice, connect, and buy. That's the lens she never designs without: not just what looks good, but what makes someone feel something and come back for more. Gatherie started around the idea of gathering (bringing people together), and grew into what it is now: a studio built to find the one thing a brand can gather people around, and build a whole world out of it.
the way we work
We care about doing less, better. We like intention over noise, depth over volume, and things built well enough to run without constant tending. It's how we like to work, and it tends to be what our clients are craving, too.
the gather method
A decade in, we've become known for a few things: deep strategy, real collaboration, and brands built to last. Branding is an art and a science, and we build for both, equally. It all comes together through a process we call The Gather Method.
01 vision
We pull everything out of your head, your vision, taste, goals, and story, until we find your it factor: the thing no one can copy. Then we study your audience and market, so every decision is data-backed and drives real results.
02 translation
Your it factor becomes something tangible. We shape it into the building blocks of your brand: the voice, the look, and the feel, so the feeling in your head finally has a form.
03 world
We put it to work, building your brand out across each touchpoint, from your website to your packaging to your campaigns, into a world that feels immersive and gives your people something to gather around.
This method gives founders clarity, confidence, and momentum, here's what that's looked like for them.
-
“Now brands reach out to us instead of the other way around. We've landed speaking and partnership opportunities, and people tell us we're exactly what they expected after seeing us online. The whole experience gave us clarity, confidence, and a brand that's easy to maintain as we grow.”
[Gary & Kim]
-
“Your ability to drop into a person's brand and brain is unlike anyone else. It's like you opened a portal into the next level with all the clarity and confidence.”
[Sabrina]
-
“Having the core pieces of a brand has made it 10x easier to make decisions. I finally have a clear direction, and I'm not embarrassed to send clients to my website anymore.”
[Alexa]
-
“Cassie understood our needs, and pushed back when our ideas would've done a disservice to the brand. She gave us a beautiful finished product, and we didn't hesitate to come back for our next brand.”

Your Questions, Answered
-
This is the whole reason deep discovery comes first for us. We get your brain dump, ask questions you’ve probably never been asked before, and get fully aligned with your vision and your goals before anything gets built. From there, revisions happen live, on calls, together, so we're staying in alignment the entire way through. Nothing moves forward until it's something you've actually approved. That's how we avoid the misunderstandings that usually creep into a branding process, we're checking alignment constantly, not just hoping we got it right at the end.
-
Everything with us feels like a conversation. We ask a lot of questions because we actually want to understand what you see. We treat your brand the way we'd treat our own, and that means being honest with you too, even when it's not what you want to hear, because our job is to protect your vision and your goals. Communication feels easy. And more than anything, it feels like someone finally sees what you've been seeing all along.
-
Most of our work lives in beauty, fashion, wellness, and lifestyle, founder-led brands with real taste and a point of view, who care about how their brand connects, not just how it looks. But the thread that actually matters isn't the industry, it's whether there's a founder with a real vision behind it. We've built outside those categories too, and honestly, some of our favorite projects have come from stepping into something unfamiliar. If that's you, we'd still love to hear what you're building.
-
It depends on scope. A full brand strategy and identity typically runs 6-8 weeks, built around collaboration so nothing feels rushed. If you're on a tighter timeline, we also offer one-day intensives for founders who need the essentials quickly, without the long back-and-forth.
-
Less than you'd think. You bring your vision and honest input, we handle the heavy lifting. It starts with a brain dump and a couple of focused calls, that's where most of your time goes. From there, revisions happen live, on the call, together, so you're not waiting weeks between rounds or managing a long back-and-forth over email. The whole point of the process is to take weight off your plate, not add another thing to it.
-
Every project is scoped to your needs, so pricing varies from $3-7k to $10-20k, reach out and we'll walk you through the options. As for how to think about it: your brand is one of the few investments that touches everything, how customers find you, trust you, and choose you over a cheaper option. Done right, it's not a cost, it's the thing that makes the rest of your marketing perform better.
You've got the vision.
Let's give people something to gather around.
