about
Illustrated by Mel is a Sydney-based creative studio specialising in bespoke digital design and illustration. We create tailored solutions for both events and businesses—from wedding stationery and personalised keepsakes to logos, packaging, and brand identities. Every project blends artistry with strategy to ensure it feels refined, meaningful, and uniquely yours.
Founded in 2019 by Creative Director and Designer Melissa Elia, the studio grew from a lifelong passion for illustration and design. Mel honed her craft working with brands and businesses before launching her own practice. Today, she brings that same expertise and creativity to clients worldwide, offering a highly personalised, collaborative approach.
