About

I’m Elody Hopkins, a multidisciplinary designer, artist, and writer based in Christchurch, New Zealand, with a background spanning graphic design, fashion design, illustration, and digital media. I love turning ideas into strong visual storytelling—moving from concept to design development and practical production, whether that’s building fashion details, crafting editorial layouts, or developing digital assets.

I’m especially drawn to creative direction and hands-on making, with experience across brand identity, web design, illustration, and print & digital design. With formal training in fashion design and digital media, plus ongoing graphic design studies, I bring both creative vision and practical skills—helping projects feel cohesive, polished, and ready for real-world use.
