Who We are

HOPE Visual Studio is a social enterprise and creative studio rooted in purpose and inclusion. We are under the umbrella of HOPE Autism Care Centre family — using visual communication to uplift, educate, and empower neurodivergent children, their families, and the professionals who support them. 

We specialise in illustration, animation, visual education resources, and inclusive design, all while mentoring and empowering neurodivergent talent. 

 
What Makes Us Unique:
What Makes Us Unique:

Founded with the belief that creativity is a powerful tool for connection and education, our studio is a unique blend of professional excellence and inclusive values.  

  • Our creative team includes autistic and neurodivergent illustrators, interns, and educators. 
  • We produce visuals that are not just beautiful but functional — tailored to help children regulate emotions, navigate routines, and feel safe. 
  • Every project is shaped by lived experience, cultural sensitivity, and inclusive values. 
  • We produce high-quality visuals that support children, families, educators, and organisations across Ireland and beyond 

Whether you’re an artist, an educator, a parent, or an organization, you are welcome here. 

"This studio was built to give my daughter, and others like her, a space to shine. A space where autism isn’t seen as a barrier to creativity, but a powerful part of it. Every drawing, every animation, every resource we make carries that intention — to include, to uplift, and to educate through art."

We believe creativity is a bridge — not just an outlet. A bridge to connection. A bridge to understanding. A bridge to belonging.
