      5.0★

      Graphic Design Review from Sam Grote

      The specific goals we hired Wallman Design to accomplish was to Create a new logo for my company. For us, it was important to find a company with similar values and that put an emphasis on partnership and shared success. It was clear from the beginning that working with Wallman Design was going to be very synergistic and collaborative. Their ability to listen and translate thoughts and ideas into a final product was amazing. All of these elements created an environment that was calibrated to drive success. Wallman Design ability to quickly spin up a creative collaborative environment from day one was impressive. It was engaging, rewarding, and familiar from day one like we were old friends/colleagues that had worked together for a long time. That type of rapid relationship building ability is uncommon (and unique) but was very much appreciated.

      Worked with the SDH team on 3 different corporate sites. They helped us with everything from moving an existing site to a new platform, to building a site from scratch and starting a new brand aesthetic. I love that they can take strong art direction or take complete control. True professionals.
