A B O U T

Under The Light Table was founded by creative director and graphic designer Stephanie Holden, an imaginative and analytical thinker acclaimed for developing strategic creative solutions for leading brands.

 

As a child, Stephanie often tagged along with her dad to his print shop. While he ran the press, she created a cozy nook for herself under the light table, where she flipped through piles of clip art books and paper swatches. Under the light table was where she first fell in love with graphic design.

Stephanie spent over two decades as an in-house creative leader and designer for international brands, notably as the Creative Director for iconic Canadian brand Roots, where she was a cross-functional creative leader charged with driving brand strategy, seasonal creative direction, quarterly product strategy, corporate communications, and a variety of ambitious creative projects.

Under The Light Table combines her over 20-years of in-house experience, passion for graphic design, and entrepreneurial upbringing into a creative strategy and graphic design studio – available for freelance projects for brands both large and small.
