Shew Design is a branding and web studio led by Becca and Eric Shew in Bellingham, Washington.
For over 20 years, we’ve partnered with organizations to build thoughtful brands and designs that bring clarity, consistency, and longevity. Working with us, you’ll gain a clear, flexible brand identity and confidence in how you communicate.
Becca Shew
With a background in art history and over twenty years of design experience, Becca approaches projects from a printer’s perspective—creating clean, minimalist designs that work across screen and print. She orchestrates business operations at Shew Design, coordinating social media campaigns, managing timelines, and handling client communications with attention to both stated needs and unspoken expectations.
She brings a strong sense of color and texture to every project, working closely with Eric on design tasks. Clients value her ability to listen closely and translate needs into work that feels both practical and inspired.
Eric Shew
Eric approaches design as a fusion of visual and verbal thinking. With formal training in creative writing and over 20 years of design experience, he works to make every project as unique as the client behind it—always searching for elegant solutions that make complex ideas feel simple and accessible.
At Shew Design, Eric handles copywriting, illustration, and web development. His strength lies in listening to what clients are trying to accomplish, then crafting messages—visual and verbal—that connect with their audiences.
