DISCOVER“Graphic design is complex combinations of words and pictures, numbers and charts, photographs and illustrations that, in order to succeed, demands the clear thinking of a particularly thoughtful individual who can orchestrate these elements so they all add up to something distinctive, or useful, or playful, or surprising, or subversive or somehow memorable.” –Jessica Helfand
Your message is important to you. It’s what you want to say to your world. Saying it in an incorrect manner may be as bad as not saying it at all. However, saying it in the proper way can be the difference between success and something less.
Graphic designers are communication problem solvers. We are translators. We take a message that needs to be sent and wrap it in a package that will be received and acted upon. We use a variety of tools in a variety of ways to bridge the gap between sender and receiver and we do it creatively. Our goal is always to use our talents and training to position your message before your audience so that they might respond in the way you desire. Put us to work for you today!
While proficiency in the use of current software is an important skill, it is by no means the only trait necessary to service the customer toward solving their communication problem. Knowledge of appropriate styles, typefaces, printing methods or web development, as well as the corollary disciplines of photography and drawing come into play when seeking the appropriate design that satisfies the needs of the client and their customer. With a background in print production and experience in web development, a variety of projects can be undertaken depending on the clients desires.

This research answers the questions, “Is knowing the history of graphic design necessary to its contemporary practice?” “If so, are there specific details that are most important to remember?” “Why are they most important?” and finally “How can these details be remembered in a relevant, practical manner?” Investigations concerning the scope of the history of graphic design, retention methods for students who study that history and determination of inclusion criteria for the essential elements of the history of graphic design determined the outcome. The result is an informational graphic called the Periodic Table of Graphic Design presented. The graphic is offered in a physical and digital format to augment the freedom of its usage by students and professionals in the field.
We strive to achieve 100% customer satisfaction for both types of customers: hiring companies and job seekers. Types of customers: with huge potential
Our goal is to help your company achieve its full potential and establish long term stability for the stakeholders
“You approach each project searching for a dozen great ideas, not just one or two. After about seven designs, you realize there really are infinite ways to look at a problem. I now completely enjoy the process, though I'm keenly aware that all but one of those dozen great ideas will eventually be killed. It’s strangely liberating.” –Gail Anderson
A designer's portfolio is never finished but is always in flux. Projects undertaken over time are at once experience and outcome of the practice of design. Clients posing unique problems provide opportunities for the designer to explore, define and redefine successful methods for solving the problems on time and on budget.
Combining classic typography styles with contemporary digital techniques produces rich, beautiful easy to read novels.
Designing something that people will carry with them and enjoy as well as the time invested is a major consideration as I match image with words.
"A book cover is a distillation. It is a haiku of the story."
Determining the essence of an entity is the most important place to begin the design process.
Once the kernal of understanding is recognized the growth becomes natural and the fruit is obvious.
“I strive for two things in design: simplicity and clarity. Great design is born of those two things.”
Not all shapes have meaning but when they are combined in imaginative ways, they can gain meaning that is then expressed.
The trick is to find the best way to combine the shapes so that they basically get out of the way of the expression.
"I want to make beautiful things, even if nobody cares, as opposed to ugly things. That's my intent."
When one is discussing oneself, all of the voice, mannerisms, personality and definition is displayed.
When one is absent all of the same characteristics should still be displayed. That is the objective of each logo.
"The logo is an identifier but it's also something that stands-in for who you are."
Whatver the event, the keepsake becomes a welcome reminder of the participation and accomplishment.
When the design is well done, the memory is well kept and mused over from time to time.
"No matter what your cultural sophistication or what language you speak, everyone can understand images."
A verbal discussion can be very effective in the search for employment or position.
A printed version can be just as effective in reminding the reader of the conversation. Designing the item left behind is important toward successfully gaining acceptance.
"We use the word typography to describe two different things: the design of letterforms, and the layout of typeset passages on a page. Both of those experiences are really important to communicating information, especially when that information involves complex ideas."
When the success of the cause depends on the acceptance of a ready message it may well first depend of the first image the public sees.
Preparing an image that reflects the intentions of the cause is a crucial part of convincing others to get on board.
"Good art inspires; Good design motivates."
