About us

Houston is a small design agency with big projects. We’re in a growth spurt. We are nimble and passionate — and our work is shared and inspiring. We’re fully distributed, and our clients are mostly US-based. 

Our client projects typically fall into one of two buckets:

• Brand Strategy Development for Mid-Market Companies — research and development of an updated brand strategy and marketing plan for mid-market companies and then often the execution and launch of that plan.

• Digital Product Design for Startups — designing web and mobile apps for new startups looking to launch an MVP product into the marketplace and need a design partner.
