We are a full-service graphic design studio for small businesses. Based in New York City.

As you can see in our portfolio, we can handle just about any medium, but currently we are focused on the Web, Flash, and iPhone. We handle all aspects of every project we take on, from design, programming, deployment, hosting, to on-going maintenance.

These days, websites are much more than an online version of your printed brochure. Since the advent of weblogs, even the average people expect to be able to manage the content of their own websites. In other words, everyone now uses websites as applications just as they use word processing or spreadsheet applications. What used to be called “web design” has turned into application development. This means that bridging the gap between art and science has become ever more critical, and this is where we focus our efforts.

The people on the “art” side and the people on the “science” side tend to speak different languages. If you hire a design firm to take care of the “art” part and hire an IT firm to do the programming, you will have to play the role of a coordinator and interpreter, which is not easy. If something goes wrong between the two, you are on your own to deal with it.

We aim for the perfect balance between art and technology for each project. Many amateur guitarists can play great sounding riffs, but not many can write a great song. Likewise, many companies can do small aspects of the web or application development well. The real challenge is in being able to produce a final product that makes sense as a whole, and we love that challenge.

Our studio is located in the East Village, New York, but we have a comprehensive set of online tools that allows us to work with clients anywhere in the world. We are always happy to talk to anyone about any project. So, please feel free to give us a call any time.
