Seventeen years of experience have helped us hone in on what we are most passionate about – changing the world by supporting nonprofits and creative organizations. And doing this through long-term relationships that start with strategy.
If you’re looking for a single project – a business card, logo or newsletter – we’re probably not the right fit for you. We’re looking for organizations that want a creative team, one that will ask questions first, design second.
In an ideal world, you would have unlimited time and resources. Our job is to work with your limitations not in spite of them.
We prefer to work long-term with clients to allow for deeper and more impactful work. When new projects and interest arise, we’re here for you.
Take a look at our process:
Discovery
We start with the basics. Who is this for? Why now? Is this the most effective solution? This phase can be as simple as a list of questions or as involved as a retreat facilitated by our team. We adapt to your budget and needs.
Design
Here we dive into format and aesthetics. All the elements – from color to typeface to imagery – have a purpose: To communicate your message with style and success. Drawing from our extensive background, we help you create the most appealing and effective plan possible.
Implementation
Go time! We press publish, send, email the printer. This is the final phase, where all the strategy and design comes to life. Just because it’s out in the world, doesn’t mean the project is over. We are part of your team and remain available to make changes to existing plans or pivot to new projects.
What we believe…
• Strategic design advances social justice and equity.
• The best solutions come from diverse ideas and contributions.
• Listening to our clients builds trust.
• We don’t have all the answers; by asking great questions we will find them together.
• Joy and fun contribute to a high quality experience for our team and clients.
