Independent brand design

Aster Field Studio

Identity and editorial design for people building something worth returning to. Led by independent designer Lena Hart.

A considered point of view

Aster Field is the independent practice of Lena Hart. I make identities that hold together across a label, a page, a screen, and the small moments between them.

  • A direct working relationship from first conversation to final files
  • Systems designed for real production, not just presentation

What I make

Brand identity

A clear visual language built from positioning, typography, color, and practical usage rules.

Editorial systems

Layouts and templates that give long-form stories room to breathe across print and web.

Digital expression

Responsive page design that carries the identity through everyday publishing.

How we work

  1. 01 · Understand

    We define the audience, constraints, and decisions the design needs to support.

  2. 02 · Develop

    I explore a focused direction and test it across the places your identity will live.

  3. 03 · Deliver

    You receive organized files, usage guidance, and a handoff built for your team.

Before we begin

What kinds of projects are a good fit?

Brand identities, editorial systems, and compact websites for teams ready to clarify how they present their work.

Do you work with existing identities?

Yes. I can refine an established system or extend it into a new publication, package, or digital space.

What should I include in an inquiry?

Tell me what you are making, what needs to change, your hoped-for timeline, and who will approve the work.

Let's make it coherent.

The inquiry destination is pending final contact details. Add the approved studio email or form URL before launch.
