About Contentedness.

Hi, I’m Tris.

Contentedness is more than just a design studio—it’s a reflection of my personal values. It’s about embracing simplicity, finding joy in “enough,” and supporting others. I started Contentedness to share a design approach grounded in empathy, community, and real connection—where the needs of the people using the content or design are at the heart of every decision.

User-centred design shapes everything at Contentedness. It’s not just about making things look good—it’s about making them work for the people they’re meant for. That means listening closely, understanding goals, and designing with clarity, care, and purpose.

Services are tailored to small businesses, local organisations, and community groups. Whether it’s a logo, branding refresh, or complete web build, the process is collaborative and designed to align with your audience and values.

Based on the Bellarine Peninsula, Contentedness proudly supports the local community and helps small businesses and organisations thrive.

Values

Contendeness was formed from the love of content, design, and the social purpose of supporting communities, both locally and globally.

  • We support local small businesses by offering no-nonsense, affordable content services. We also offer reduced rates and some complimentary services to community, not-for-profit, and for-purpose organisations to support their goals.

  • We recognise the harm done to First Nations People - Their loss of traditional culture, waters, and lands through the colonisation of Australia, the forced removal of children and the denial of citizenship rights.

  • We acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the land where we work and live, the Wadawurrung of the Kulin nation, and pay our respects to Elders past and present.

  • We are conscious of white privilege and its ongoing impact worldwide. We're committed to fostering awareness and understanding of these issues through our work, contributing to a more equitable and just society.

  • We proudly stand with and celebrate the diversity of LGBTQIA+ communities. Our content is a platform to amplify voices, share stories, and promote inclusivity, ensuring that every voice is heard and respected.
