LONG BIO

Leigh Whiting is a creative director and the founder of STUDIO•US, a multidisciplinary design studio based in New York and London that works with clients internationally. The studio builds brand identities, editorial design, pitch decks, animation and websites for companies with something new to explain. Clients include former US Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin, Native Markets, Upgraid and the Court of Master Sommeliers.

Leigh made her name on work the public finds hard to trust. She was the founding designer at Cavnue and the only designer on the team that won its Michigan DOT bid, and Cavnue later made TIME's Best Inventions of 2024. At Sidewalk Labs she led print and book design on Toronto Tomorrow, a 1,524-page publication Harvard now uses as a teaching reference.
