Company Story

We’re Matt and Jasmine, the partners behind Appear Design. Our two-person team is based in the Pacific Northwest and together we handle all projects.

In 2013, after meeting while working at ski areas and national parks, we started a web design and marketing business in the northern Rockies. The concept was simple: to help grow local businesses using online tools. Our setup was also simple - just the two of us working from our kitchen table in a small cabin in the mountains.

Matt focused on his college studies in communication, marketing, and web design while Jasmine ran accounting, sales, creative, and design. Together, we maintained all aspects of the company and grew our business from sprout to tree through handshakes and local online marketing. The concept was simple yet effective.

After 12 years in business, we’re proud to showcase our extensive experience working with a diverse range of clients, including home industry professionals, travel companies, healthcare professionals, artisans, and many more. Our commitment to understanding each industry's unique needs has allowed us to tailor our services effectively, resulting in meaningful working relationships and successful outcomes.

Through trusted referrals, positive reviews, and a strategic online presence, we have not only aided in the growth of our clients’ businesses but have also successfully expanded our own. By collaborating with entities across various sectors, we have honed our skills and strategies and continue to deliver exceptional results.

As Squarespace Experts and Shopify Partners, we find that the tools available in these platforms cover the majority of online business needs of today’s digital era and are thrilled to work on, and promote them to other businesses. Through our detailed consultations and a transparent approach, we aim to find the best fit for each of our unique clients.

Today, we still work from home, and while we now have separate desks, our approach to doing business has remained the same: straightforward concepts, understandable marketing strategies, and appealing designs.

When not at our desks, you’ll find us playing in the mountains, biking through the forests, turning through deep powder, and planning our next fun getaway. Our passion for the outdoors fuels our creativity indoors. Reach out, and let’s chat about your web project. Wherever we are in the world, we are always a phone call or email away.
