Why
FifthHouse
In astrology, the fifth house represents creativity, self-expression, and the spark that makes something original.
It’s the space where instinct meets artistry, where ideas come to life with clarity and meaning.
That’s the kind of work we do.
FifthHouse is a nod to intuition, structure, and the creative force that turns vision into form.
Who We Are
FifthHouse is a Nashville-based creative studio specializing in bold brand identities, campaign and event creative, high-performing websites, and fractional creative support.
Founded by creative director and designer Kashia Spalding after more than a decade in corporate, agency, and independent roles, FifthHouse was built on the belief that design is communication.
Rooted in Mexican and Filipino heritage and shaped by a global upbringing, the studio brings cultural depth, clarity, and creative edge to every project. Each engagement is led by our founder and supported by a trusted network of creative partners as needed. With Paloma, our Chief Vibes Officer, the studio stays lively, the ideas stay fresh, and the toys stay scattered.
Our Mission
FifthHouse exists to bring clarity, depth, and distinction to creative work. We help ideas take form through design that’s intentional, expressive, and built to connect.
Our Values
These principles guide everything we create:
Intuition & Intellect:
We trust instinct, but ground it in sharp thinking. Strategy and gut work best in tandem.
Design as Language
Visual communication isn’t decoration; it’s a system of meaning.
Make It Make Sense
We bring structure to the abstract and clarity to the complex.
Build What Lasts
Trends fade. We create work with staying power; on brand, on time, and built to endure.
Culture Informs Craft
With a global perspective, we bring layered context and bold flavor to every decision.
A Touch of Magic ✨
Not everything can be explained. We honor the creative spark that gives the work life.
How We Work
Our process is collaborative and strategic, built around clarity from the start.
We take time to understand your goals, audience, and vision, then shape brand systems, websites, and creative that reflect who you are and where you are going. The experience is as important as the outcome. You will always know what is happening, and the work will always feel true to your brand at its best.
Let’s Make Your Brand Unforgettable
Whether you’re launching something new, refreshing an existing brand, or planning your next campaign, we can help you bring it to life with clarity, creativity, and the kind of visual presence that turns heads.
