Our Story

Kalin Design is a Melbourne-based creative studio specialising in large-scale hand-painted murals, traditional sign painting, gilding, branding and custom lettering.

Founded in 2017 by signwriter, mural artist and designer Philip Kalinowski, the studio reflects Phil’s appreciation for traditional craft, thoughtful design and work made by hand. He remains personally involved throughout each project, bringing together creative direction, practical problem-solving and a detailed understanding of materials, surfaces and installation.

Kalin Design has become a trusted creative and production partner for businesses, organisations, designers and communities across Australia. Through a distinctive combination of typography, illustration and craftsmanship, the studio creates memorable work that communicates character and gives brands and spaces a stronger visual presence.

The studio was built on the belief that speed and convenience should never come at the expense of quality. Meaningful work takes skill, patience and persistence. For clients looking beyond mass-produced signage, predictable industry solutions and a one-size-fits-all approach, Kalin Design offers something more considered, more personal and made to endure.
