Creating real impact

Good Payne

At Studio Payne, our creativity doesn’t stop at client work—it’s a driving force behind our commitment to making a difference. Through our Good Payne impact fund, we dedicate a percentage of our revenue to causes and initiatives that matter to our team. We do this through volunteering, donating to charities close to our hearts, and our pro-bono and low-bono work for organisations driving positive change.

For us, creativity is about building a better future together.

Projects with Purpose

In our Projects with Purpose program, we work with small or independent not-for-profit organisations, or early-stage for-profit ventures with a clear purpose. We support initiatives focused on environmental sustainability, social change, diversity and inclusion, or education and development—whether you’re creating products and services that benefit the planet, tackling complex social issues, addressing cultural inequities, or nurturing the next generation of creative thinkers and doers.

If you’d like to work with us and your business meets these criteria, get in touch and let’s chat.

Kalinya

Kalinya expands the realm of professional possibilities for First Nations People. Founder, Jirra Harvey, fosters indigenous connection and opportunity—through creativity, design, and togetherness.

Jirra approached Studio Payne, with the challenge to visually and verbally articulate her vision. This meant encompassing the consultancy she does today, as well as her aspirations for the future. Part of this was creating a brand that is beyond the image many have of First Nations business—developing a brand that is premium and evocative, and worthy of shaping tomorrow.
