About Us
Hi there! My name is Darren “Ello” Ellis, and I am the primary designer and owner of Ello Design, a small design studio in the beautiful mountains of the West Kootenays. At Ello Design, we help small and medium-sized businesses build their brand image by providing high-quality websites, SEO, logos, and marketing materials that work together to create a consistent brand identity designed to resonate with their target audience.
Our mission at Ello Design is to create lasting partnerships with our clients and ensure that every client walks away with exceptional design work that exceeds their expectations and has a positive and rewarding experience throughout the project. To achieve these results, an essential first step is to truly understand our client’s needs, wants and goals. We do this by asking constructive questions and providing clear communication throughout the project to remove unnecessary work, expense and confusion. So, if you’re looking for a design studio that values integrity, creativity, and partnership, look no further! Whether you’re ready to start your next design project or want to discuss your brand’s challenges, I’m always here to listen. So, reach out and say hello, and let’s bring your brand vision to life.

TESTIMONIALS
From happy customers
Darren was a great partner in helping the VAST team complete a brand refresh and designing our new website. He was flexible, patient, professional and a great communicator throughout the process. The quality of work was excellent and we are very happy with the end product. We look forward to working with Darren again in the future!
Darren is an excellent designer to work with. His creativity, professionalism and quick turnaround are all great assets when working on projects with tight deadlines and various approval stages. Darren has a fantastic ability to take an idea and create something visually appealing. He ensures a timely response to every inquiry and drafts are often returned within hours of a request. I’d highly recommend Darren and Design Creative Media for quality designs and personable service.
Inside Job Consulting recommends Darren to anyone who is looking for a creative, responsive, professional and client-centric designer (and so much more). We are very happy with the design, implementation and maintenance of our website and are very appreciative of Darren’s work to put our vision into reality.
We worked with Ello and Darren to revamp the website for our non-profit organization. Darren was extremely responsive, helped to guide us when needed, and the quality of work was outstanding. Our search for a high quality and accessible designer/developer is over – we will return to Darren and Ello again and again.
Thanks Darren for our fantastic website! Great advice and guidance, really happy with the end result!
We are very happy with the services provided from Ello Design to completely re-design and improve our company website. Darren provided exceptional support to our team from a design and user interface perspective.
Darren is professional, easy to work with, and brings excellent design chops to the job at hand. For both projects to date, he transformed a “shoebox of assorted content and content ideas” into visually-attractive and engaging products with a solid look, brand and feel. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire Darren for another project.
Darren is a skilled and creative technical designer who consistently delivers to high expectations. He clearly communicates timelines and costs, and has the ability to expertly navigate complex, multi-partner initiatives with patience and professionalism. Highly recommend.
We worked with Ello because there is just no comparison to the intimate and hands on approach to every project. When Darren takes on a task for our company, it’s not uncommon for him to know what we want before we even realize it ourselves. Locally, or abroad, we haven’t seen anyone who even comes close.
I found working with Ello for the redevelopment of the United Way of Trail & District website to be a very easy and stress-free process. We are very pleased with the new design and layout and would recommend their services to anyone looking to build or redevelop an exciting website.
Darren is the definition of a creative design professional. He was responsive to our ideas and suggestions and prompt in making the changes we requested. I’d recommend Darren for any design work on organizational branding, websites, marketing and affordable and quick turnover print jobs.
We have been with Ello Design, formerly Design Creative Media, for 6 years now and could not be happier with the service we have received. Darren has always been prompt, helpful and very creative. I highly recommend this business and the new benefit programs look amazing!
