As graphic designers, we have a special place in our hearts for print design

We savor the process of designing for print, taking an idea from pencil sketch, to handmade mock up, to finished piece. It's a hands-on labor of love, and like a meal cooked with passion, you can taste the difference in the "final dish."

Print pieces seduce the senses. The subtle heft of an elegant business card. A little saying peeking up at you from inside a box lid. The rough-smooth luster of a matte finish. The ripple of an embossed ridge.

All of this, of course, is another way of saying that print has the power to create an emotional connection to your brand. And one genuine emotion is worth its weight in cardstock.

Client stories

Tacoma Rescue Mission

Just like any nonprofit, Tacoma Rescue Mission wanted to help more people, which required more money. We provided graphic design for several annual reports and events.

The design goal throughout these projects was a more Tacoma-based look. The theory? If giving partners could see themselves and their city in the Rescue Mission’s efforts, they’d be more likely to give and give generously. The assets created from these initial projects were well received and made their way into future public-facing efforts.

Holiday gifts

We love fruit baskets as much as the next office, but for a recent holiday season we asked, "How can we give something different, something fun and creative?"

Being four grown men, all with toys on our desks, naturally we thought something LEGO related would be perfect. And of course, we had to design a custom box to house our outside-the-box gift.

Capgemini

Capgemini is a titan of the consulting, technology, and outsourcing world. With 190,000 employees in over 40 countries, they’re a company that drives business on an international scale.

We supported them with graphic design for a printed sales tool that broke the rules of traditional binding. Using a bottom left bracket, the sales booklet could be fanned out to display Capgemini's full range of cloud-based services for businesses.
