A Few of Our Favourites

We’ve been taking a moment to look back at some of our favourite projects — and wow, what a journey it’s been!

From bold designs to clean and classic concepts, each one tells its own story… and we’ve loved bringing them all to life.

It’s not easy choosing favourites when every project means something special to us, but these ones definitely stand out for their creativity, colour, and impact.

Which one is your favourite? Let us know in the comments

Be kind to yourself, stay safe, and enjoy a beautiful Bank Holiday 💛
With love,

Today, Marabou Media turns 5!
Five years of creating, building, experimenting, and helping our clients show their value.

A huge thank you to my teammate and mother, Antoinette Blignaut. We have learned, grown, and stretched ourselves in ways we never imagined.

And to all our clients, past and present - thank you for letting us be part of your business, your passion, your teaching, and your advocacy. It’s a privilege we don’t take lightly.

Here’s to continuing the journey and to the next five years of delivering dreams!

Happy Friday, everyone!

Before the weekend begins, we thought we’d share a few of our latest designs with you. It’s always inspiring for us to look back at what we’ve created and see how different colours, ideas, and styles come together.

Every project is unique, and that’s what makes what we do so exciting. We truly love being creative and bringing new ideas to life – and we hope that passion shines through in our work!

Wishing you all a wonderful and relaxing weekend.

Your business name matters more than you think…

I can’t tell you how many times we work with clients who come to us with names that are:

* too generic to rank on search
* already taken (somewhere… somehow)
* or so complicated that no one remembers them

Your website name isn’t just a URL, it’s your first digital impression.

So, if you are currently exploring names and domains, here’s what to keep in mind:

Keep it short and simple

1–3 words is ideal.
Easy to spell. Easy to remember.
If someone hears it once, they should be able to type it without guessing.
Be brandable, not basic
Generic names get lost online.
A strong name should feel unique, memorable, and give you room to grow as your business evolves.
Avoid the technical traps
Numbers and hyphens cause confusion.
Keep it clean. Keep it clear.
Use keywords wisely

Including a relevant word like media, marketing, or design can support your SEO and help the right people find you.

Do the checks first

* Domain available?
* Social handles free?
* No trademarks?
* Not too similar to a competitor?

This simple step saves a lot of headaches later.

The right name should feel natural, strong, and future-ready - just like your brand. The name is the cornerstone and first step! Choose wisely 😊

And if you’re stuck, that’s exactly where we come in.

At Marabou Media, we help turn ideas into names that work — for your brand, your audience, and your growth.

This Valentine’s Day, let love lead.

Today isn’t only about romantic gestures or red roses. It’s about care, kindness, and connection — the small moments that remind us we’re not alone.

Love the people around you a little louder.
Be gentle. Be patient. Be present.

Because the truth is, we never truly know what tomorrow holds — and that makes cherishing each other today all the more important.

From all of us at Marabou Media, may your day be filled with warmth, compassion, and love in all its beautiful forms.

Before we dive into what’s next, we wanted to share a few of our latest designs with you.

Taking time to look back at our recent work is always special for us—seeing different colours, ideas, and styles come together and come to life.

We truly love what we do, and we hope that passion shines through in every design.

Thank you for being part of our creative journey.

⭐We love logos⭐

Over the last few years, we’ve had the privilege of working on many original logo designs, and it never gets old.

A logo is such an important part of your business identity. It’s often the first impression people have of your brand, so it needs to feel authentic. It should reflect your personality and style, be meaningful, and ideally come with a strong back story.

From colour palettes that mirror your brand and ethos, to visuals that bring your ideas to life, the only real limit is imagination, and how well we capture and execute the brief. That’s where the magic really happens. Your logo should excite you!

Today, we’re sharing a few of our favourites. Each one tells a story and represents a business that chose to be intentional about how they show up.

If you’re thinking about a new logo, or a refresh, we’d love to help.

Drop us a DM and let’s start the process.

Hello, amazing Marabou Media community!

It’s that time again—time to pause, reflect, and celebrate a few of our favourite designs from the past week.

Every project brings a new creative challenge, shaped by the unique vision and personality of each client. No two brands are ever the same, and that’s exactly what makes our work so inspiring.

We love diving into the heart of every brand to craft visuals that truly connect and tell a story.

Sharing these highlights isn’t just about showcasing our work—it’s also a gentle reminder (for us and for you! 😊) to appreciate how far we’ve come before rushing into the next big idea.

Take a look and let us know in the comments—which one is your favourite? We’d love to hear your thoughts!

Wishing all our Marabou friends a fantastic week ahead.

I’m not a designer....
I’m a creative and a maker.

I work visually. I enjoy the 'doing' part, the process of turning ideas into something real.

Last year had 261 working days and the Marabou Team spent 229 of them creating visuals.

I’m not sharing this to talk about workload at Marabou. I’m sharing it because creativity doesn’t wait for perfect conditions.

You don’t get to only create on the days you feel confident, motivated or inspired. If you did, very little would ever get finished. Creativity needs routine.

I once heard creativity described as turning on a tap. The flow doesn’t arrive first. You turn the tap, and then it comes. This was a powerful idea for me.

The same is true for thinking, problem-solving and building something new.

This type of thinking works like a muscle. The more you use it, the stronger it becomes. Starting gets easier. Momentum builds.

So if you’ve got something sitting in your pending pile right now – a project, a plan, a decision you’ve been avoiding – this is your reminder.

Start small.

Take the next step, not the perfect one.

Expect discomfort.

Expect judgement.

Expect that voice telling you you’re not ready yet.

2026 is the year to build, grow and change the things that aren’t working.

Let’s start this week!

Second working week of the year and we are back…

Energy renewed. Creativity refreshed. Ideas flowing again.

And yet… we are determined to hold on to that festive feeling just a little longer 😊

Today we are sharing some of our favourite Marabou Media designs from December 2025.

Our work created with care, collaboration, and a genuine love for building communities and sparking meaningful conversations.

To our clients - thank you!

For your trust.
For your continued support.
For inviting us into your business and allowing us to do what we do best.
We don’t take that lightly.

Ever.

Here’s to a 2026 filled with purpose, creativity, and impact!
