Brand identity, websites, and the pieces that hold them together
I'm Gigi Alve. I help founders and small businesses turn scattered ideas into one brand that fits: the identity, the website, and the everyday creative that keeps it all consistent. Based in Michigan, working with clients across the U.S.

Who I work with
Small and service-based businesses
You've been in business a while. You have a logo, a website, a stack of Canva templates, and none of it quite looks like the same company. I pull it into one system you can actually keep up.
Founders building something new.
You have the idea and the energy, and you want to launch looking like you mean it. We build the brand and website together, so you only have to do it once.
Startups getting ready to raise.

Why Tessellations
A tessellation is made of individual pieces that interlock into one seamless pattern — that's exactly how I think about branding. Your logo, your voice, your story, your website, your marketing: none of it works in isolation. I build brands where every piece reinforces the next, so your business looks and sounds like one thing, everywhere it shows up — including the site people land on first.
Design that helps your business feel clear, polished, and easy to trust.
At Tessellations, I help small businesses, founders, and service-based brands bring their branding, website, and visual content into alignment. Whether you are launching, rebranding, or cleaning up what already exists, the goal is to create designs that feel intentional, cohesive, and true to you.
I came to Tessellations with scattered ideas and an abstract vision. What they returned to me was a stunningly cohesive brand story. Tessellations distilled my essence into visuals and messaging that I couldn't have articulated on my own, and did so with grace, precision, and heart.
