Strategic Branding, Custom Websites & Graphic Design
Designs for growing businesses, crafted with Character
brands that bite. Websites that work.
Born from years managing restaurants and serving behind the bar, Badlands brings a hospitality mindset to every project. Detail-driven, human-focused, and crafted to create connection.
Whether it’s a full brand system for a growing business, ad design or packaging for a product launch, or a website built to scale with your growth, the goal is simple: build brands people want to experience, not just look at.
What We Do
Branding That Sticks. Strategy That Sells.
Your brand is more than just a logo, it’s an experience. We craft strategic, character-driven branding that makes your businesses unforgettable. From logo design to cohesive visual systems, we help you stand out and own your space.
Websites That Work as Hard as You Do.
Your website should be more than a digital business card. It should be your most powerful marketing tool. We build high-converting Squarespace websites that look stunning, function seamlessly, and drive results.
Design That Demands Attention.
From eye-catching marketing materials to killer social media graphics, we create visuals that captivate and communicate. Whether you need apparel designs, print collateral, or something unique, we’ve got you covered.
Work That Speaks For Itself
What People Are Saying
Meet Your Designer
Founder + Designer, Cara Bahan
Before launching Badlands, I spent over 15 years in the food and beverage industry, working front of house, behind the bar, and in management roles where the smallest details shaped the entire guest experience. That foundation still guides my work today. Great brands, like great experiences, are built intentionally.
With over a decade in design, I now bring that same attention to detail into brand strategy, Squarespace website design, and graphic systems for growing businesses. I understand hospitality from the inside out, and I know how powerful strong branding can be when it supports real-world operations.
From restaurants, bars, and resorts to festivals, grocers, and service-based businesses, I’ve worked with passionate teams who care deeply about what they build. That’s who Badlands is for.
Design should have guts. Brands should have character. Websites should work as hard as you do.
