A BLEND OF TALENTS

THE
STORYTELLERS

Our highly experienced and motivated team delivers creative talent, professionalism, and passion for design to every project without compromise. In every case, we provide our clients customized solutions that are creative, professional and effective.

MANAGING PARTNERS

ALI

Creative Director + Partner
Ali Khamis is the founder of Blend Creative Studio, which began as a one-person operation and has since grown into a close-knit team, much like a family. As Creative Director and head of the family, Ali Khamis has developed a reputation for exceptional, award-winning work.
Ali’s attention to detail and commitment to crafting unique solutions for each client ensure that their individual needs and personalities are seamlessly integrated into every project. His ability to understand a client’s needs—often before they themselves are aware—has been honed over 29 years of dedicated work in the industry. Ali’s journey from a junior graphic designer to the founder of Blend Creative Studio reflects his deep-rooted passion and expertise across advertising agencies, photography studios, magazines, and packaging. This experience has only strengthened his love for the industry and his commitment to delivering outstanding results.

LYNN

Art Director + Partner

Lynn has a laugh that will totally make you howl! And bigger than her laugh is her talent, which is HUGE. Seriously, the girl is GOOD! Clients rave at Lynn’s encyclopedic knowledge of their brand and when a decision is needed, they often defer to her instead of their own staff, because Lynn knows their business as well or better than anyone.

25+ years of industry experience and award-winning work for local, national and international clients make Lynn a seasoned professional. Her production skills make every design look as good as can be, and her attention to detail is second to none.

A little twisted, Lynn loves off-beat movies, Ali’s cats, and especially walking around barefoot.

TRACY

Finance Director + Partner 

Providing a strong counter-balance to the madcap creativity of the Blend team is Tracy, our accounting and administrative ace. Proving the adage that less is more, Tracy is the yeast in our fresh-baked bread; just a pinch of input, and your work will rise to the top!

Your business is Tracy’s business, and the more she knows, the more she can help. Tracy works with our clients to match their project goals to their budget realities to ensure an optimal return on investment each time.

Fiscal Performance Inc.

It was a pleasure working with Ali and his team. The professionalism and ideas that they brought to the table were amazing. They always met deadlines with patience and grace. I would definitely work with this team again and would have no hesitation recommending this team to others. John Swain: John Swain & Associates The most noteworthy aspect of working with Blend Creative Studio is how quickly they ‘got’ what I was looking to do. They were then able to translate my ambiguous communication, multiple ideas/notions and vague references into a masterpiece so that I could say “that’s it” - even though I wouldn’t have known what I was looking for until I saw it. Ali and his team are gifted designers and have a talented extended network of others who can turn your idea into a commercial reality that is has style, sizzle and ‘stickiness’

As the owner of a new business branding is extremely important to the success or failure of my new endeavour. In the image driven age of social media having a coherent, memorable brand is essential. To help achieve that end I enlisted the professionals at Blend Creative Studio. I have been working with Ali and his team for many years and knowing their commitment to their clients I chose to use them when the time came to start my own business. Together we have created marketing tools that have helped lift my business over well-established competitors making Yellow Dog Grooming the groomer of choice in the Ancaster/Hamilton area. I can say without a doubt that investing in skilled professionals to help design & create your business image can make a huge difference as to how your product or service is viewed. Thank you to the team at Blend Creative Studio. I look forward to using your services to a greater extent as my little business grows.

“Creativity with a Twist” pretty much sums up Blend Creative Studio! They started by taking the time to first understand whoI was and the needs of my business, then by some magic the creative juices started to flow. Their passion was contagious and my logo and website in its uniqueness has captured who I am and the essence of my company. Not only did Blend exceed my expectations, but their creative genius has set me out in front of my competitors. I highly recommend Ali and his team of professionals at Blend Creative Studio.

We consider Blend Creative Studio an integral partner of our organization. From flyers, to brochures, to more intensive rebranding with logo redesign, our experience has been positive.

I am delighted to have worked with Blend Creative Studio as a client under various organizations that I have worked at. Blend and I have had a lot of opportunities to work on many different projects together. From small-scale projects such as the refreshing old and tired creative to the development of new marketing collateral for Sunnybrook Foundation and YMCA of Greater Toronto, the team at Blend Creative Studio has consistently shown their ability to provide impactful and effective designs that help deliver the objectives of the initiatives. And unlike traditional design agencies, Blend moves at lightning speed to ensure that projects are delivered on time and on budget. They forego any account people/middle-men, with Ali or Lynn and/or their team working directly with me to make the necessary revisions during the proofing stages. Having worked in the not-for-profit industry, Ali has also shown the same passion for the causes that my organization stood for, shows in their creative work. It is a refreshing thing to see as a client to have a true partner in your initiatives. I highly recommend Blend Creative Studio as a design partner for your company or organization.

I am so grateful and lucky to have such amazing people and an amazing design firm at my fingertips. After working with Ali and his team at Blend Creative Studio for almost 10 years, I have all the confidence in the world to give them any task at hand and know that I can depend on them to pull it together no matter what. To date, they have completed a variety of projects both big and small, including our billboards, marketing support materials, copywriting, newsletters, eblasts, promotional items, and so much more. Not only do they complete the task at hand quickly, efficiently, and with the utmost care, they take it to the next level with their creative expertise and acute attention to detail. The dedication at Blend is unlike any other. I recommend Blend Creative Studio without hesitation to any one, and I am happy to spread the word on a company that appreciates their clients, and will respect your business as if it were their own. I look forward to seeing Blend Creative Studio continue to flourish! With their talent, their future and their circle of business, is definitely something anyone would want to be a part of.
