Portfolio: Samples of our work

Denise Holmes

Denise specializes in creating cute and happy illustrations. Most days you can find her drawing, taking pictures of her daughter Hazel or scouring thrift stores for vintage children's books. She is now working on her first children's book due out in 2014. She lives in Chicago with her family.

Belle Enfant

We created a soft and muted identity for Belle Enfant, "a luxury fashion brand for style conscious infants." While you may want to quibble over whether infants are conscious of style, surely you won't quibble that their clothing looks oh so soft and sweet.

Denise designed the logo and some illustrations, Lauren designed a minimal, yet playful site design, and Zoe made it just about perfect on the front and back ends!

"I recently read a quote and thought of the team from Aeolidia: "We don't find it remarkable when our expectations are met only when they are exceeded." That is exactly what the folks at Aeolidia did for us every step of the way.

I had searched for a web designer for a couple of years only to find cookie cutter and soulless designs. So when I came across Aeolidia my heart raced and my breathing stopped, I couldn't believe my eyes after having searched for so long. Working with Arianne and Denise Ann Holmes was awesome! It was like bringing in the A-Team and you just knew something good was a brewing.

Denise Ann Holmes is an art super star! We loved all the forest creations and the logo she did for us. She is such a talented and sweet artist! She responded promptly to all our emails and was prolific in her sketches. We look forward to working with Denise in the future.

We can't thank Arianne enough for all her wonderful work and I almost want to do another website just so I can work with her again as it was such a treat. We are so happy with our website and all the incredible feedback we've received. We were constantly impressed with Arianne's patience, attention to details, and professionalism. We will definitely be contacting Aeolidia for future projects."

Muddy's Bake Shop

"The website looks so good and works so well. Several customers have even said it's one of the best, easiest to use websites they've ever seen. We've had such a great response to it and every now and then I go myself and just look around... just cause it's made of awesome. :)
You and your team did such a great job and have been so great to work with. THANK YOU!"

Children's Eyeworks

Divina came to us for an easy-to-shop website that would appeal to "mothers with infants and children needing to wear glasses. I envision a younger, chic, smart mom, who wants her child to look and feel good in their glasses, who's concerned about using the best and safest material out there. Our products are not mass-produced and therefore retain a special high quality and are priced accordingly."

Denise created the logo, and Lauren whipped up a simple, friendly website design.

Nisee Made

"It is like my birthday everyday! Aeolidia has given me the best present - an amazing website! I could not be more happier with Arianne and her wonderful team at Aeolidia! They are such a pleasure to work with; they answered all my questions fast and with lots of information, they know what they are doing and they do a good job, and they can design and program websites like no other! Thank you Aeolidia!!!"

Hey Jo!

"After discovering Aeolidia I just knew I had to have them!

I chose Denise Holmes to design my logo and I could not have been happier. We worked closely together, day in, day out and despite the cross Atlantic time difference Denise was always prompt at answering every last whim I threw at her! Her patience was second to none - putting up with my indecisive and perfectionist nature must have a been a trial for her but she was never anything other than warm, friendly, professional, wonderful, talented and amazingly creative! If I came up with an idea in my sleep and emailed Denise - by morning I would wake up to a beautifully crafted illustration - each and every time. I am so very happy with my finished logo and would jump at the chance to work with both Arianne and Denise again - they are perfectly fabulous! From inception to final product they have been every inch professional, expert and utterly charming.

Thank you both SO very much - you have helped me get my long awaited business underway, and for that, you are priceless!"
