We work with organisations seeking clarity, direction and a stronger brand foundation. Get in touch if you would like to discuss a project, a challenge or a potential collaboration.

Meet our team

We're a small, focused studio with a deliberately wide reach. Kristine leads every project, supported by a curated group of senior designers, strategists and makers we've worked with for years. You get the consistency of a dedicated partner and the range of a larger team.
Kristine Blesvik
Founder, CEO & Creative Director

Kristine founded KastleBlack to bridge the gap between strategy and visual identity. With nearly 20 years of experience from agencies in London and Oslo, she specialises in helping ambitious companies define what they stand for and how they should express it. Her belief is simple: strong brands are built on a clear strategic foundation, not decoration. Outside of the office, Kristine likes the thrill of snowboarding, and the dark growl of metal music.

Stefan Mintsev
Co-Founder & Managing Partner

Stefan co-founded KastleBlack with a background in people management and client relations, skills that translate directly into how the studio operates and grows. He shapes the business side of KastleBlack, from strategic decisions to client communications and operations, and brings a sharp non-designer perspective that keeps the work grounded in how real people experience brands. Outside of the studio, Stefan is most at home outdoors, analogue camera in hand or off-road with a rooftop tent and no particular plan.

Holly Davis
Strategic Brand Consultant

Holly brings over 24 years of experience in brand management and design, connecting clear strategic thinking with inspired execution for global organisations. She specialises in building brands that are distinctive, consistent, and commercially effective — across both digital and physical platforms. Outside of work, Holly is most likely on the beach with her dogs, or loudly cheering on her kids at Sunday football.
