WHO WE ARE

Yellow Zest brings Brazilian roots into Belfast's creative scene. Our work carries the colour, rhythm and warmth of that background, in a market that mostly plays it minimal and muted. From branding and websites to social media and PR, we design with vibrancy, texture and a bit of bite: bold typography, brave colour, brands that don't sit quietly in the background

TESTIMONIALS

  • Smiling man with a beard and tattoos on arms standing inside a cozy restaurant or cafe.

    Working with Juliana has been a turning point for La Bottega. In just a few months we grew by thousands of followers, gained national press and TV coverage and welcomed new customers from across Ireland. She doesn’t just ‘do marketing’, she becomes part of the team, shaping our story and opening doors we didn’t think possible. Her strategy and energy have been instrumental in our success.

  • A woman with shoulder-length brown hair sitting in a gray chair in front of shelves with books, plants, and educational models, holding a yellow book titled 'Child Telling' and smiling.

    I've been delighted with the work done by Juliana in creating and designing my website. I was guided and managed through the process effortlessly. Juliana is very professional and readily instills confidence in her work. I'd thoroughly recommend Yellow Zest to other entrepreneurs. Fabulous job!
