STUDIO
Who we are
We are a multi discipline creative agency, providing the full range of digital and traditional design and development capabilities. This includes: strategy, brand identity development, design, media, production and support services.
With studios located in Chicago and Portland, our unique geographic business structure and expertise have helped us blend insight, technology and creativity to grow good ideas from every level of the agency. All this helps us to broaden our clients notions of marketing boundaries and creative possibilities.
Our business is based on our relentless relationship with innovation, and our obsession with exploring new narrative possibilities that bring our clients message to the marketplace. By continually pushing the limits of our capabilities, we are able to drive our client’s voice and vision to further evolve their brand.
A vision without a plan is just an abstract.
No matter how great the idea, every project needs a clear and efficient direction. The four stages of our process – Research, Design, Build and Deploy – empowers your vision and drives your idea from concept to marketplace. With each stage, we establish new narratives and engagements with our clients, by presenting the right solution at the right time.

PROCESS
How we do it
A company is so much more than a brochure, a web site or a logo. We work with our clients to unearth their corporate DNA, to identify what makes them tick, and to better define where they want to go. Once we have a firm grasp on what makes a client different, we take those intangibles and translate them into design, content and functionality that is uniquely, unequivocally them. Only then can we create the brochure, web site or logo that will strike the right chord and resonate with their audience for years to come.
Step 01. Explore
We would like to get to know you...
We begin by focusing on getting to know our clients and finding out what inspires them, what drives them, what they represent and what distinguishes them from the rest.
Step 02. Envision
Upon taking what we’ve learned—those aspirations, values and ideals—our goal is a clear, distinct brand vision that will communicate our client’s message consistently and effectively.
Step 03. Execute
Next, we dive deep to reveal the crystalline, multi-dimensional message that will set our client apart from the crowd and will resonate with their audience for years to come.
Step 04. Experience
We believe that the brands we create are integral and thoughtful components of a communications strategy, and once our mission is complete, we help our clients understand how to use what we have created and see how it fits into their big picture.
