This publication is my attempt to describe the myriad ways in which technology and psychology conspire to fool us, and to explore how we can withstand the covert assault on our senses

I’ve spent my career in authoritarian and far-off places, from inside North Korea to the trans-Siberian railway across Russia, from investigations into genocide in Cambodia to experiments in technological surveillance in China.

The idea for karoofelt was born when Claudia was travelling through the Karoo 2017, and thought: Why not in an area full of wool, create products that could empower local women to make a living & draw more attention to the incredible beauty of the area?

Claudia was travelling through the Karoo (in the Eastern Cape of South Africa) in 2017 to escape the city for a few days. Where others see a harsh, arid landscape, & nothing but sheep for as far as the eye can see, Claudia looked up & saw the beautiful Karoo nightsky, flooded with stars. She saw an opportunity, but it was much more than that: she had an idea & a dream

Tara created an amazing Substack design for me. Working with her was a pleasure and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome
Tara has an amazing eye for colour & space and gets it just right. She took my brief & made it even better than I thought possible. She really felt into my product, and established the best way to market it to my clients.
On top of that she juggled our differing time-zones with ease & kept me abreast on what was happening with small videos - on changes that were being made while I was asleep. I couldn't think of any better person to work with.
Tara has developed a corporate identity that really reflects the essence of the brand we wanted to create. She was intuitive, creative & patient with us.
Her energy is clear & focused. We love the work she has done & we highly recommend Tara & her team at OmniBrand
I may have had 20 years of experience as a journalist, but when I began making the shift to start my own Substack, I felt like a disheveled mess. Thankfully, a friend told me about Tara's amazing design work at OmniBrand.
One Substack publication design package later, and I had a slick logo, an inspired color scheme and all the support I needed to feel like I was dressed for success.
I knew Tara was the right person to work with after meeting her.
She was instantly personable, easy to communicate with, and understood what I was struggling with and what my goals were.
I did not doubt that she could help me build something I'm proud of sharing - and she absolutely delivered! Her care and attention has been outstanding.
Tara has been amazing with building our website & expanding our brand for Colors of Hope & Kings Gate Ranch. She has always been on schedule & even though she's around the world for us, it's never gotten in the way of servicing our non-profit needs.
We are honored & grateful for her amazing talent & services. Her pricing is absolutely amazing when we're trying to do everything on a budget, yet her design work is far above what we could ask for. The kindness she brings to every phone call is refreshing. Our team is honored to work with Tara and her team at OmniBrand!
Hi, I’m Tara, a professional brand designer with +10 years’ experience, crafting Corporate Identities for businesses, entrepreneurs and Substack writers.
Our streamlined Substack Package was created in partnership with the team at Substack to help you launch your Substack publication quickly & confidently.
