Thought. Principle. Image.
“A congruity of thought and principle, united in a coherent image.”
This quote by graphic design pioneer Herbert Bayer is the standard to which every project undertaken at DMMD is held. Put simply it means that every decision in our design process must have a clear and distinct purpose, in keeping with the primary goals of the client. Whether it’s a corporate identity, capabilities brochure, annual report, web site, advertisement or any other form of creative communication, thorough attention to every detail ensures that each project works to fulfill the unique needs of that client.
Founded in 1997, DMMD is a full service graphic design and strategic marketing firm. Our primary objective has always been to provide dynamic creative communications – with an emphasis on customer service – to a broad base of clients. Over the past 20+ years, DMMD has built successful, lasting relationships with a variety of clients, large and small – from energy, technology and manufacturing to B2B, retail, entertainment, service and non-profit. Whether you’re a global entity like GE, BP and Shell, a Mom & Pop, Start-Up or Everyday Entrepreneur, we help build and maintain brands that stand out and stand the test of time – delivering boutique service with big agency impact.
Our approach to design, and the business thereof, is an eclectic combination of education, experience and ability, inspired by sources from classic to vernacular, from the Bauhaus to “Bewitched” to the Beastie Boys. Most importantly, our approach to every project is determined by each client’s unique needs and goals, which we work diligently to comprehend and refine. To do so, we prefer a direct, down-to-Earth angle – skipping the flow charts, forms and focus groups in favor of face-to-face conversations on-site, over coffee – or a cold one. Once we’ve determined an appropriate direction and course of action, every decision in the ensuing process is made in pursuit of that client’s “coherent image.”
