Strategic CPG Packaging Designer for Premium Consumer Brands
Luxury packaging design for anything you can eat, drink, smear on your face, or gift to your neighbor’s dog. Crafted to stand out and command premium pricing.
This Is Not an Agency
You work with me and me alone. No juniors, no hand-offs, no contractors.
And that’s exactly why this works.
At Studio Stoked, you get my 15 years of CPG design experience, my strategic packaging insight, and cameos from my cat on every Zoom call.
(Last one’s non-negotiable.)
I spend my time creating luxurious, sustainable, strategic-as-hell packaging. I’d love to do the same for your brand.
Full-Service CPG Packaging Design
This is the work I’m known for: from-scratch packaging that elevates your product, builds your brand, and positions you for premium pricing.
This isn't a logo slapped on a box. This service is brand identity embedded into packaging, giving you a shelf-ready system that works now, scales for future SKUs or line extensions, and is distinctively yours.

If brand designers were superheroes, Marta at Studio Stoked would be Professor X—because somehow, she read my mind, unlocked the deepest corners of my brand’s soul, and turned my wildest, most chaotic ideas into a visual masterpiece.
I came to her with a vague dream, a few Pinterest boards, and a concerning amount of caffeine, and she came back with a brand identity that felt like it had been living in my heart all along. She just gets it. Her relatability makes the process fun (seriously, she's the kind of person you want to grab coffee with), but don’t let that fool you—she’s a branding wizard. She saw things I didn’t even know I wanted and brought them to life in a way that makes me feel like my business finally has a soul of its own.
If you're looking for someone to translate your vision into something magical, stop searching. Marta is it. 10/10. Would let her read my mind again.
Frequently asked questions
What does a CPG packaging designer actually do?
A good one starts with strategy, not aesthetics. Who is buying this, why, and what the packaging needs to communicate before a word is read. If your last designer's first question was "what colours do you like," that's your answer.
How much does CPG packaging design cost?
Studio Stoked projects start at $9,000 USD for one SKU. Covers strategy, design, revisions, print-ready files, brand guidelines, and print management. Cheaper options exist and usually cost more in the long run. Full breakdown →
How long does a CPG packaging project take?
Six to eight weeks from strategy to print-ready files. Rushing it is how you end up doing it twice.
Do I need brand strategy before packaging design?
Yes. Packaging without strategy is decoration. Here's why →
Do you work internationally?
Yes. I'm an Aussie, designing globally from Croatia. Clients across Australia, the US, the UK, and Europe. Physical proofs shipped or digital proofs for approval before anything runs.
What types of CPG brands do you work with?
Food, beverage, skincare, wellness, supplements, pet. Founders who are pre-launch or early-stage with a product that works and packaging that doesn't match it yet.
