Bright design and goods for fans of food, facts, and feelings.

Hi! I’m Lisa Mcgill.

I’m a graphic designer, letterer, surface pattern designer, and lifelong Chicagoan. My work is known for uniting bold colorways, retro-inspired lettering, and organic illustration—adding unique flavor to brands and bringing to life my passions for food, STEM, and literature.

When I’m not designing or drawing, you can find me perusing my collection of vintage cookbooks, reading, nerding out over science documentaries, and experimenting in my kitchen ‘lab’.
