Bonita Applebum is the founder behind LIVINELAY, a woman-owned design and branding studio rooted in Los Angeles, California. The studio operates under the tagline "For the love of design," and its name spells out "LIVE-In-LA," a tribute to the city it calls home.

LIVINELAY offers custom design and print solutions that span illustration, packaging, branding, logos, stickers, labels and tradeshow materials, with work serving businesses across the cannabis, food, beauty and fashion industries. The studio also maintains a presence on Etsy, extending its design work to a wider audience.

Bonita describes Los Angeles Trade Technical College in downtown LA as her alma mater and the place where she discovered her passion for visual communication. That grounding in design continues to shape the studio's focus on helping brands tell their story through considered, custom visual work.
