Studio M is my design practice—M is an abbreviation of my name (Melissa Chan). It’s also a Manifesto of sorts:
Studio More or less is more;
Studio Maybe less;
Studio March or April;
Studio MMMmmmMMmMMmmM;
Studio Many things and shapes;
Studio Mondays in bed;
Studio Maybe it is more;
Studio Most likely it will rain;
Studio Maintainence mode, sorry;

Studio Make it ‘till you fake it;
Studio More money, no cry;
Studio Multiple hats and baguettes;
Studio Mandarijn van der Sap;
Studio May the list go on;
Studio Much love, M.
I have a strong passion for crafting visual stories and shaping (typo)graphic narratives and forms.
Designing since 2003, born in 1984 in Kuala Lumpur, and raised amidst a backdrop of Letrasets and Prismacolor markers.
Also moonlighting as aMansChisel, and initiating graphic design workouts with Occasional Typo.
Currently based out of Kyiv, Ukraine. Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The Hague, Netherlands. Open to collaborations and remote position in a studio.
