Our vision: to help make our urban areas more liveable, healthy, and in harmony with the natural world

Quality visual design helps to convey important messages, shape behaviours, and drive action. It has even more profound influence in urban settings, where dense populations are creating environments ripe for innovation, action, and societal change. Skilfully utilising the power of visual design here, will therefore help to influence progress, in not just SDG 11 (sustainable cities and communities); but across the entire board of sustainable development goals.

What's the vision?

We have a vision that 25 years from now, our cities will be full of thriving, healthy, and inclusive communities. Nature will start to flourish in our urban spaces, through communal green areas, rewilding, and urban agriculture projects. This will contribute to an urban realm where natural biodiversity can thrive, locally grown nutritious food is accessible to city residents, and people are drawn to spend more time outside in nature.

The city will be designed for people, not cars. Residents will travel using innovative carbon neutral public transport, micro-mobility, or by foot. This will contribute to a city landscape that encourages activity and healthier lifestyles, improves air quality, and reduces noise pollution. 

Our cities will employ principles of circular economy, meaning commodities are reused, repurposed, and reformed to ensure we don't dispose of more than what's necessary. We'll be on our path to restoring our earth and sustaining the planet for generations to come.  

All this is a result of us being able to successfully create increased visibility, recognition, engagement and trust for those organisations working towards sustainable and regenerative cities. These well-intentioned sustainable organisations became beacons of light and fearless visionaries. They started providing rejuvenation, hope, and positive change to our cities. This enabled disempowered residents to become collaborative change makers, and as a result, we slowly began to see oppressive, concrete jungles become green, healthy centres of regenerative change.

So, what do you say? Are you onboard for the ride?

Tara Pigott: Brand Designer

Hi I'm Tara

I'm a freelance Graphic Designer from Nottingham, UK, but recently relocated to France.

It was through my BASc in Global Sustainable Development, where I first started studying the realm of urban sustainability and health.

In 2022, I went on to start Metari Design, at the time, a design studio working with positive impact brands.

In 2024, I brought the two realms together and repositioned the brand to what it is today: graphic & brand identity design for visionary organisations in urban sustainability.

So, if you're looking for a Graphic Designer that understands urban sustainability or SGD 11, I'm your woman, let's chat!

Working with Tara has been an absolute delight. She is professional, punctual and exceptionally talented. She fully understood our brief and was able to elevate it with her own artistic flair. Tara is an excellent communicator and fully understood our needs - I highly recommend working with her.

It’s been a pleasure to work with Tara. She’s made the process of bringing my brand identity to life so easy. I was sometimes a little muddled with my own ideas but her in-depth onboarding questionnaire and discussion helped guide my thoughts. I felt Tara really grasped what my business was about from the start. I am thrilled with the outcome and feel my new logo and brand colours truly reflect me and my business. She provided a truly comprehensive package and I can’t wait to start using everything she created.

Tara was excellent. She took on board everything that was said and she nailed the new logo in her first draft. She was extremely quick and very amenable to tweaks and changes we needed to put in place. I was very impressed with the branding guidelines document - it's so much easier to have something of that quality to send out to third parties. Since the launch of our new brand & website we have seen an 8x increase in new members, and a 21x increase in full members! These numbers speak for themselves...

Tara gave Corkademy a face and visual direction that I am very proud of. I am very happy with the outcome but also with the journey. It was an absolute pleasure working with Tara, she is patient, professional, disciplined in her work and in total control of the process. She understood the brand very well and gave it a strong visual direction. She was flexible and not afraid to implement changes.

Working with Tara is an absolute pleasure. Her straightforward approach makes thinking with her very easy. This combined with her ability to grasp exactly what we need and then turn that into stunning images and graphics. Her communication ensures that we are both aligned all the way through the creative process which means that by the time her work is complete there is never really a need for amendments. This is why we will now always turn to her first for any of our design needs.

Tara provides top-notch service from start to finish. One of the things that I value most in working with Tara is her communication. Tara’s designs greatly exceeded my expectations and I immediately knew that I had to have her build out a set of slide deck presentations using the same concepts. In short, Tara’s work is the secret weapon that I didn’t know that I needed in order to expand my studio.

Tara was efficient and understood what we wanted. She was really friendly and easy to talk to and although we didn’t go with her first set of logos, she listened to our feedback and came up with exactly what we wanted. Our new branding and website portrays us as fresh, modern and professional.  We feel you really hit the mark with representing us as a London company with ambition to grow!

It was an absolute pleasure working alongside Tara and I am very happy with her final design for Bloomsta. Tara was professional, thoughtful, motivated, and kind! She walked me through her design process and thanks to her my start up really came to life with a fun, unique, and eco-friendly personality. For any start ups looking to improve their brand, I highly recommend Tara as she helped us to understand our brand and brought it to life with a whole new personality.

The work Tara has produced for the Social Media and Marketing Team at Cherubs Nurseries has been great, we have really enjoyed working with her. Nothing is ever too much trouble, she responds very quickly to emails and feedback, and she always makes sure the outcome we desire is reached. We are happy with the graphics we’ve received, and it’s allowed us to take a step closer to a refreshed and more consistent brand. We will certainly be coming back for more projects soon. Thank you!

I'd definitely recommend Tara. We reached out to her with a tight deadline and she was happy to accommodate and delivered with excellent communication skills before, during and after the project. I was most impressed with questions she asked ahead of the work, taking the time to get to know and understand our business to make sure the design was in line with our brand and values.

I approached Tara to help with creating a social media and online presence. She constructed a colour palette and a unique brand style for my for my social media accounts and more. Tara was easy to communicate with, she understood my vision and worked very quickly to create colour palettes and simple, easy to use templates with distinctions between products and great designs. I would recommend Tara to anyone that wants to create a unique online brand and style.
