We’ve been collaborating with clients for over two decades to create holistic brand experiences with a personal touch. Let’s put our minds together.  See our workWashington Project for the ArtsWPA is a leading non-profit with a local focus and a global reach. They have supported working artists for over forty years, and they asked us to design a new look-and-feel that builds upon this foundation with a bold and contemporary visual brand.Building a sense of communityWe extended the brand into the digital world with a responsive web application.
