/ About

Design across brand, digital and communication.

I'm Monique Meintjes, a Johannesburg-based designer working across identity, websites, UI/UX, campaigns, presentations and editorial design. My work is strongest where businesses need to turn layered information into something more useful, considered and easy to understand.

/ Background & training

Background & training.

A background in teaching gave me a working foundation in structure, communication and audience understanding — habits that carry through to how I approach design. My design experience has developed through commercial project work across cybersecurity, hospitality, travel and lifestyle businesses, supported by ongoing self-directed learning across brand, UI/UX and digital systems.
