About

LANDON MATNEY

I’m Landon Matney—a designer, art director, and creative professional with nearly a decade of experience in shaping brand identity, illustration, cohesive systems and visual storytelling for organizations that care deeply about how they show up in the world. My work blends strategic thinking with memorable visual execution, grounded in a formal graphic design background from Nossi College of Art.


Over the years, I’ve led rebrands, built new identities, and supported creative initiatives for nonprofits, startups, cultural institutions, and commercial clients.

Over the years, I’ve led rebrands, built new identities, and supported creative initiatives for nonprofits, startups, cultural institutions, and commercial clients.

Partnerships include Center for Nonprofit Management, Nashville Area Chamber of Commerce, Nashville Entrepreneur Center, Tennessee Educators of Color Alliance, TruHealth, Ugly Bagel, and Yosemite Consulting, along with a wide range of organizations across industries.


At the core of my practice is a belief that thoughtful design can clarify purpose, elevate perception, and create lasting connections. When I’m not designing for clients, you’ll likely find me painting, traveling somewhere new, or spending time outdoors with the people I love most.

WORK CORE

WHAT I DO

WHAT I DO

Design through integrated solutions.

Brand and design are treated as one continuous process.

A strong brand isn’t just created—it’s carried through every touchpoint with intention. I bridge strategy, visual design, and execution to eliminate the usual gaps, ensuring the work stays aligned from concept to rollout. The result is a cohesive brand experience that feels thoughtful, consistent, and real.

HOW I DO IT

Collaboration is key.

Branding is approached as a true partnership rather than a transactional client–designer exchange.

By embedding directly with your team, I get to learn your brand from the inside out—the values, ambitions, and audiences that make it tick. With open communication, steady collaboration, and a little curiosity, we build trust early and turn shared understanding into creative work that actually feels true to you.

I take pride in the work I do and find the most fulfillment partnering with organizations whose missions align with my core values.

WHY I DO IT

Brands that inspire and transform.

Art club president in high school, awarded “most creative” in college - safe to say, this has always been my lane.

Over time, that instinct turned into purpose: using design to tell stories, spark feeling, and open doors. My work aims to move people through clarity, emotion, and possibility—building brands and experiences that resonate, inspire ideas, and nudge forward.
