End to end studio for the ambitious.
Letter from the founder
I’m Monika Lepova, the founder of Lemon Studio Design (The Garden). I started in 2017 because I wanted to work closely with brands that value clarity, creativity, and ambition – from first-time founders to established names reshaping how are they perceived. Today, we design identities, websites, and visual systems for clients across Europe, United States, and West Asia, with a natural affinity for high-end brands.
Over the years, technology has completely changed how design is done. We’ve embraced the parts that make us better: research tools that shorten what used to take weeks, intelligent systems that help us see patterns in how people behave and decide. But we never delegate taste or direction to a machine. AI tools may support our work, but all our visuals and strategies are created by our team.

Thank you for being here and for supporting our journey. Let's actively contribute to improving the world around us.
We are stepping into a new era
Over the past eight years, the work we do at Lemon Studio Design has naturally expanded beyond pure design, evolving into comprehensive brand architecture and digital positioning. It is time our own identity reflects the depth of what we build for our clients. And so, our new brand, The Garden, was born. The foundations were built from a desire to step away from the pace of uniform aesthetics and AI generated visuals, and return to something more meaningful.

Interviews, Articles, and Media Features
We’ve had the chance to share our thoughts on branding and design in interviews, articles, and features over the years. Here’s a selection of where Lemon Studio Design has been featured and the topics we’ve been asked to speak on.
Making a difference together
Giving back is a part of how we work. Some days we’re at a fundraising gala dinner, helping support bigger organisations with bigger reach. Other days we’re delivering essentials to people experiencing homelessness or spending time in senior homes.
We’ve seen and contributed to all sides of philanthropy: the fancy charity auctions and the not very glamorous parts no one posts about. Both matter to us, and being involved in all of it keeps us grounded in something bigger than business metrics. Which brings me to the part how brands behave – when we work on a brand, this thinking comes with us.
We design what people see, and just as importantly we look at how your business shows up in the world, what it communicates through its actions, and whether that aligns with the values you claim.
If there’s a better or more responsible way to do something, we’ll bring it to you. We like building and repositioning brands with intention – and together, we create something you can stand behind for the long run.
