Always Feel Welcome™ is the studio of Brian Blomqvist Jones—a designer, brand specialist, and writer based in Los Angeles, California. We work remotely with clients around the world, but never hesitates at the chance to travel.

From start-ups to established companies looking to evolve, we can help launch something new or transform an aging brand into something fresh.

Values, strategy, and storytelling are the foundation for any successful brand. It’s where we start with every client to identify how to best communicate your mission with your audience.

Over the years, Brian's work has been recognized by Print Magazine, Design Observer, I.D. Magazine, The New York Times, AIGA, Fast Company, Eater, The Dieline, Swiss Miss, Imbibe, and the James Beard Awards. He has been a contributing writer for several food and travel publications, launched a successful website about the specialty coffee industry, and wrote his first book—Brew: Better Coffee at Home—selling over 50,000 copies.

Branding & Strategy

Let’s start at the beginning. We can help find the perfect name, create a concise brand strategy, and bring it all to life with a holistic identity.

Services

Creative & Art Direction

Some things are better left for others: like film, photography, code, and interior design. But we can help ensure these projects stay on brand.

Visual & Package Design

Logos, brand guidelines, packaging, apparel, editorial, ads, environments, marketing collateral, websites, apps—if it can be seen, we can design it.
