About Dove Tree
The art of storytelling and design
Our Story
Dove Tree is a small, family-owned independent publishing and design studio in Port Macquarie. For 30 years we’ve helped authors and small businesses turn ideas into clear, beautiful work. Our in-house team blends book design, illustration, branding and graphic design to create practical, production-ready files for ebook, print-on-demand and web, delivered with steady communication and care.
Who we are
We’re a tight‑knit studio that values clarity, craft and kindness. Our background spans book publishing, brand identity and campaign design, so we’re comfortable moving between words and visuals, covers and layouts, print and digital. Along the way, our work has been recognised with awards, but what matters most to us is that your project reads well, looks right and reaches the people it’s for.
