creative team.

Brandon Moats Design Director | Partner

Born in the Valley of San Fernando, Brandon grew up in the center of the creative world. Raised not to follow others but lead them in a new direction, 'Bran' has created a new concept of graphic design. His distinct artistic style is quickly progressing into something more than even he could imagine. Proficient in motion, web, illustration, art direction, photography and brand strategy, his graphic mindset came in 2003 and has been slowly molded into a force that breaks down barriers and shapes new ideas. Bran craves and strives to make sure every Suite Freedom project from initial concept to final output is nothing less then perfect. Known for his unconventional methods and approach to projects, Bran is unparalleled and the new paradigm of design.

Bran became a partner in Suite Freedom in 2010. He and Alex are also the Co-founders of Rogues Factory, an art gallery/artist coalition in Los Angeles that is a creative platform for accomplished and undiscovered artists to showcase their work. If he is not hard at work, Bran is exploring the surf of California and the streets of downtown LA for inspiration.

Alex HarmanCreative Director | Managing Partner

A native of L.A., Alex was raised in a family that engaged and nurtured his creative passion. This artist & entrepreneur blend’s his innate and learned knowledge to inspire the imagination. He has over 7 years of experience in creative & design direction, photography, industrial design, brand strategy, consulting, product design and advertising/marketing campaigns. He is set apart from others by not just being an artist, but by having a strong business background which has helped him develop an identity all his own. Always on a journey of discovery and infinitely curious, his work and visionary leadership define this eccentric designer. Alex goes the extra mile to ensure Suite Freedom builds a strong relationship between the studio, its clients and the target audience. Thorough in the design process, his creations communicate messages that have the ability to connect people while having no limits.

In 2008 Alex established the creative agency Suite Freedom and in 2010 partnered with acclaimed artist and good friend Brandon Moats. Alex is also the Principal & Design Director of Refinery Nr.5, a Los Angeles based manufacturer of handcrafted artisanal goods.
