Founder + Creative Director
Shauna Haider
Shauna splits her time between Branch’s studio hubs in Palm Springs and New York. For the last decade, she’s worked alongside Art Director Samantha Sacomano to build bespoke brands that are as strategic as they are beautiful, using a deeply collaborative process that helps clients stand out and become the leader in their industry.
Beyond client work, Shauna is a recognized voice in design and personal style. Through her Aesthetic Alignment framework, she helps women integrate their authentic style across every part of life, from personal presentation to living spaces, building a foundation for more intentional living.

The Studio
Branch was built on a simple belief: the brands that last are the ones built on a foundation of thought, care and originality. Every project moves through the same small, dedicated team from first conversation to the delivery of final files, so nothing gets lost in translation or feels outsourced. We are a studio built to go deep, on fewer brands, with a high level of care.
Based in Palm Springs and New York, we work with businesses who are ready to stand out in their industry. What connects them is a willingness to go deep and to trust that the best version of their brand is one we uncover together. That trust is earned and the reason why so many of our clients stay with us for years, returning project after project as their brand continues to grow.
INSTEAD OF chasING trends,
We uncover what is true and
build brands around it.








Our Ethos
At Branch, we believe the best brands are built in partnership. Every project begins with a simple premise: that the most powerful visual identity isn’t the one that looks the most impressive on a mood board. It’s the one that genuinely reflects the person, vision and values behind the business. We never arrive with a predetermined aesthetic. Instead, we show up with curiosity and a commitment to understanding what makes you irreplaceable.
That human-first approach is what has kept clients returning to Branch for over a decade. We work with founders, thought leaders, and premium brands who are ready to stop blending in. They understand that a truly aligned brand isn’t just a business asset, it’s a mirror. Our role is to hold that mirror steady, translate what we find into a visual language the world can’t ignore, and build something that grows with you long after the project closes.

The gap between where you are and where you are going? That is exactly where Branch works best.
If you have ever looked at your brand and thought this does not feel like me anymore, you are exactly who we built Branch for. You know your value. You know what you are capable of. You just need a creative partner who can see it too, and translate it into something the world cannot look away from.
