The Story Behind STIR
Where strategy isn't watered down and creative converts.
Your brand's got a room here.
1998.
Drawing the STIR world before I knew what STIR was.
Ice cream cones, sweet hearts, cocktail glasses, pink outfit, feather headband. 7 years old and I already knew the vibe.
2016.
Graphic design by day, fashion shows by night. Loved every second.
Pink, feathers, neon, exactly my kind of room. The kind of garms that end up in magazines... and they did. Printed in Lucy's Magazine, Vol.33, 2018. What a time.
2018.
Backpacked, chased the sun, freelanced from the beach, ended up in Melbourne... Kourtney K reposted my work (pinch me)
Networked my way into POOSH. Kourtney K reposted, spent the next few years freelancing with brands I genuinely loved, made some amazing friends along the way, and met the love of my life – Eric my golden lab.
Bangn Body, Bondi Sands, Sephora, Collabs with The Beverly Hills Hotel, Coco & Eve, the breakout hack, Bouf, Desert Rose.
2026. Sydney.
I took the scenic route, and it lead me to STIR.
I built STIR because creative without strategy is just pretty, and I wanted more than that. A studio where creative and conversion feed each other, endlessly. That gap is exactly what STIR closes.
Along the way I found my girl Kate – STIR's Growth + Performance Strategist who came into my world through a shared client. We were already solving the same problem from opposite sides – performance inside the account with no creative that could keep up, creative with little to no intel into the account to pour from. Together, we're the whole loop. ထ
Your brand's room awaits. Room service included. Eric not included.

A taste-STIR of what it’s like to work with us:
“Working with Darcie & Kate has been the absolute best. They understand the brand immediately, without needing briefs or drawn-out calls. A short conversation turns into a fully developed creative suite that is on-brand, strategically sharp, and built to convert.
The ads, email campaigns, marketing strategy and implementation have driven measurable growth and revenue for Pixie Wing. The output is not just aesthetically aligned, it performs. Forever GRATEFUL to have them on the team!!”
