A BIT ABOUT MMSTUDIO.
Built for ideas with a point of view.
Hi, I’m Matthew McWilliam, a Scottish freelance designer creating bold, playful visual work that brings ideas to life.
A studio that starts with a good question.
I’m drawn to projects that uncover unexpected stories and connect naturally with the people they’re made for. MMStudio. mixes creativity and strategy with a slightly off-beat edge—turning loose ideas into visual work that people notice, remember, and maybe even smile at.

Lovely words from lovely clients.
Working with Matthew has been amazing! He tailored everything to our needs whilst offering his fair and helpful opinions. He built upon everything we gave him whilst injecting his own great style into the job at hand.
His turn-around time was swift and his responses were always prompt. Matthew was willing to work tirelessly to make sure we had exactly what we wanted.
If ever we need anything graphics wise, Matthew’s our go-to contact for certain.

Matthew’s a great collaborator with a good eye for what works in a design. Super to the point and effective in putting ideas to paper.
His intuition was sharp and he had a mature way of suggesting ideas, never enforcing anything. Highly recommended this guy for a low stress, high quality piece of work.
