OUR STUDIO

For more than copy, for universes

From sustained stewardship to once-off collaborations, our studio specialises in world-building for founders, directors, and creative visionaries. We purposely limit our active roster to a select number of collaborations per quarter.

  • “From writing wide-scale, national campaigns to dynamic social media scriptwriting, Stoep Collective brings literary precision and strategic clarity to multi-channel brand language. Megan has a rare ability to understand tone, audience, and structure quickly, then turn several briefs into language that feels coherent, persuasive, and alive.”

    — CARLI SCHOEMAN

    Digital Director, Sidebar Agency

  • "I have known and worked with Megan and Stoep Collective for many years; Megan is highly intelligent, motivated and an imaginative thinker. She works quickly and accurately, communicates very well, and her impact is immediate."

    — NICK MULGREW

    Publishing Director & Founder, Batis Books
    Edinburgh

  • "Our work together was largely about helping me find my voice in the noise. I work primarily with ceramics, but I also wanted to make more space for my writing and poetry, and to understand how these different parts of my practice connect. I often have many ideas and don’t always know where to begin. Stoep Collective helped me define the voice I wanted to have, clarify the direction I wanted my practice and studio to take, and see more clearly what I was moving towards. That clarity and sense of direction have been incredibly valuable to me, both as an artist and as an individual."
