Why we do it
We started Luna Creative in 2010 to fill a gap in the market by providing exceptionally crafted design and excellent client engagement coupled with an understanding of our clients’ unique challenges.
Who we work with
For us, this isn’t just a job, it’s a mission. We’re really picky about who we work with, and for good reason. We strive to be a creative force for good, helping to create a cleaner, more sustainable, and healthier future for all life on Earth, and that starts with working with people and companies who are actively doing good.
We specialize in with people who either in the field, or in the lab, are driving a more sustainable future.
Along the way, we coined the term “Geeky Good” to lift up and celebrate the engineers, water quality experts, biologists, and myriad others who dedicate their careers to creating a better future.
At Luna, we specialize in projects that are contributing to environmental or social good. We use our creative and strategic chops to raise up the smartest advances and the most important leaps of technology and conservation.
How we work
At Luna, your experience throughout the design process is very important to us. We believe that a strong working process guides a great outcome. We’ve developed a thoughtful, intentional approach to communicating and project management. This approach is designed to give you peace of mind and encourage open feedback.
Leadership
Hi, I’m Cordelia. I’m creative. I’m warm. I’m science-minded. And I care deeply about my clients—organizations who are making the world cleaner, more sustainable and more inclusive. As the child and grandchild of scientists, I’ve always been drawn to details. The inner-workings. The why. The research. To my work, I bring a technical understanding combined with creative thinking.
I lead the team here at Luna Creative, and I believe my studio has had so much success helping clients achieve their goals because it all starts with listening and understanding. We love to distill, to translate, and to help you make those critical connections that help your organization grow.
Over my 20+ year career as a graphic designer, I’ve worked for the CIA—designing intelligence pieces that went to the President, Congress, the Pentagon, and the DOD—including the first mapfolio of Cuba, and the CIA’s first Black History Exhibit. My greatest accomplishments though are the wins I help my clients achieve every day at Luna.
As a conservationist and illustrator, I’m passionate about sharing my love of the wild. My books, prints and paintings are available on Etsy at Luna Creative Market.
Let’s achieve your next step.

“From the first meeting, the discovery process was a delight. I felt that she not only wanted to know my ideas, but she needed to understand my vision, my direction…I feel as if she has become a partner in my brand. She did research above and beyond what I would have expected or even dreamed! She ‘gets’ me, my brand, and understands the symbolism of my choice. I could not be happier with the end result. She listens…which is so rare, and enhances what you think you want and transforms it into something you could not even imagine you could have.”
