Branding Review from Eric Horton
Hello DesignRush community,I wanted to share my exceptional experience working with Sven at Igawa Design. Sven is a true professional. He takes direction effortlessly, offers valuable insights, and consistently exceeds expectations with elegant and creative solutions for our graphic design needs. I wholeheartedly recommend Igawa Design for any branding or graphic design projects.Best regards,
Branding Review from Jonathan Brown
Igawa Design is one of the most contemporary and strategic thinking Brand and Design agencies in California. I've had the pleasure of working with Sven and his team on multiple programs and projects and every time Ive been struck by how relevant and unique the solutions and work are. Modern, fresh, dynamic and sophisticated, their work hits the mark every time. They are great partners and great people to work with.For Memorex, Sven was responsible for a complete re thinking of our clients core identity, repositioning it toward a new audience and mindset. This new direction was then applied to a complete range of consumer packing and point of sale, resulting in a fresh new face that stood out in a crowded and cluttered sector.
Branding Review from Matt Lyon
HydraPak engaged Igawa to re-brand the company at a pivotal moment in our growth. With a surge of growth, we had a chance to re-brand the 15 year-old company and reintroduce it to the marketplace. Sven delivered an entirely new brand book that we used to reposition ourselves in the marketplace. As a young company, we used this as a blue print for our future projects and marketing relationships. The work was spot-on, nailing who we were and capturing it in a way that was compelling to others. We were so happy with the work, we also used Sven to re-brand our Bottle Bright and Polar Bottle acquisitions. I did not think that someone else could tell me something about my brand that I didn't already know, but Sven proved me wrong. I highly recommend Igawa.

CTS LLC's Review Sourced from Google
I was very trepidatious about starting with a new website design and hosting company. I knew it was necessary for company growth but felt somewhat at a loss of where to start. When I met a few of the PufCreativ team members at an industry event, it was apparent that they were authentic humans and had expertise in their field. The process was very professional, from my intro conversation with Shamus Lahman, to my first meeting and contract negotiation with John Shute, to the weeks of work with the team. I worked closely with our assigned team including Piper Lee and Patrick Cathcart, as well as Andres Hernandez. They responded quickly to questions, and sought to fully understand our goals for the website. The recommendations they made were helpful and everything stayed within the budget that was discussed at the start of the project. They integrated all of our existing systems and even enhanced our functionality within them.We are so glad that we found this team and look forward to a long-term business relationship, utilizing even more of their services, as our company grows and our online presence expands. Our team is very happy with the finished product and we have received compliments from both existing and new customers. Our website is now a place to pause, learn, shop & engage...not just a landing page. I would highly recommend PufCreative for website design and hosting.
Mike Petrone's Review Sourced from Google
I can't say enough good things about PufCreativ. They are EXACTLY the type of partner I need to stay ahead of my job and the competition. Their team is as passionate, capable and reliable as they are creative. Together we designed a beautiful and highly functional website that has accomplished our goals of elevating our brand while boosting sales through streamlined user interface. Time and again, I've come to them with challenges and just as often they've knocked the solutions out of the park.Oh and by the way, our website is performing better than ever and gaining more traction and clicks every month while our optimization and search rankings continue to rise.Our account manager, Benny, is ALWAYS responsive and thorough. He truly cares about our happiness and success as a client. Through him, our projects remain on track while our larger goals never fall to the wayside.If you're reading this and you're on the fence about which firm to go with, hop down from up there and land on the side of PufCreativ!
Diane Austin's Review Sourced from Google
As a small cannabis cultivation business, it was important for us to bring our vision to our business. Pufcreativ exceeded our expectations in doing that. Shamus and his team were excellent to work with and most of all I appreciate the creativity and patience as we worked through the process of branding, logo design, website development, and packaging design. Highly recommend their services.

The Ad Astra team is Amazing! They listened, understood and created a brand that is exactly what I wanted and needed.

Keith and Paul were able to take the look and feel I was hoping to achieve on my website and knock it out of the park!

Graphic Design Review from Candice Wynter (She/Her)
My organization worked with Creative Repute over a nearly 6-month period (January 2021 - July 2021). Everything Creative Repute developed for us is still functioning great and running smoothly. While we had to work out a few process and timing kinks along the way, CR was a joy to work with and a hard working team. If you're looking for a creative, thoughtful, and values-forward team, then look no further than Creative Repute.
The Colored Girls Museum's Review Sourced from Google
The Colored Girls Museum has now worked with Creative Repute Design Agency on several high visibility projects . Including Custom Wallpaper designed by Nile Livingston which took center stage at Philadelphia Airport backing our installation (Sit A Spell ) which was on view for nine months. The inspiration for the wallpaper came from Niles postcard design for our show The One Room Schoolhouse . We loved the design so much we created other merch around it . At present the wallpaper can be seen at The Colored Girls Museum in the Colored Boys Room. Most recently Creative Repute turned around the poster appearing soon at Mother Bethel which is the kick off location for The Tribute to The 7th Ward Legacy Reclaimed . Walking Tour . Always a pleasure to work with Nile and her team . Excellent customer service , beautiful design work .Most important to us intuitive and client centered approach to graphic design that exceeds what we can imagine when we approach them with a sketch of an idea. Hire them !Bonus fact Nile Livingston is one of the portrait Artist at The Colored Girls Museum , now also on view at Mother Bethel.

The team at Creative Repute has remained consistently responsive and patient as we all adjust to the changes happening in the world due to Covid-19. They creatively redesigned our Save-The-Date to accommodate a virtual event because we are unsure about when people will feel comfortable meeting face to face again. I appreciate the project manager’s uplifting, calm, and positive outlook and the quality of their team’s design work. I highly recommend.

Working with Adam Vicarel and his team at Vicarel Studios was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. They brought incredible creativity to the project, were highly professional in every interaction, and made the entire process seamless and enjoyable. Adam and his team listened closely, offered thoughtful ideas, and delivered work that far exceeded expectations. I can’t recommend Vicarel Studios enough—if you’re looking for a talented, professional, and genuinely great team to collaborate with, look no further!
Bayli Lewis's Review Sourced from Google
Working with Vicarel Studio is always such a good time. We came to them for branding and walked away with work that felt next level. The vibe? Professional but never stiff. Creative but still totally strategic. They just got us — and brought our vision to life in a way that felt fresh, elevated, and super aligned. If you’re looking for a team that delivers killer artwork and knows how to make the process feel easy (and fun), Vicarel Studio is the one. 10/10 would do it all over again.

The Del E. Webb Center for the Performing Arts has worked with Mary Scanlon and Ember Design for almost 2 decades. Over that time, Mary has provided us with quality and meticulous work. She has helped develop our branding and understands our marketing vision. She is patient with us when we ask her to make minor adjustments on any newspaper ad, magazine ad, digital ad, postcard, brochure, rack card, website page and more. She is very versatile in her graphic design skills and stays up-to-date on the latest trends. We recommend her very highly!

Hiring Mary Scanlon and Ember Design was one of the best decisions I made when opening my business in 2019.

She is a pleasure to work with, an excellent communicator and always turns our projects around so quickly. I highly recommend her!

We hosted a workshop with Vesna and Bo Markovich from Yanbo Solutions for our Charlotte Business Owners community, focused on how local businesses can stay visible in a fast-changing digital space.They shared practical insights on how AI tools like ChatGPT and other search assistants are changing the way customers find businesses, and what owners can do to stay ahead. The discussion covered local SEO, Google Business Profile optimization, online visibility, and the importance of reviews and consistency in building trust and authority online.What we liked most was how practical and easy to apply everything was. It wasn’t overly technical or theoretical, just clear, real steps business owners can actually use. The session was engaging, relevant, and very timely for the direction search and marketing are heading.Overall, it was a valuable workshop that gave our members useful strategies they can start applying right away!

I have worked with other design studios and, frankly, have never done so without frustration – sometimes a lot of frustration. PetersenWest is different. They truly are. John has assembles a team that is both talented and professional. They are not afraid to openly resist my bad ideas. And, they truly listen. John Petersen is a collaborator on nearly every new project we have. I trust his insight and love his restraint in helping to vet my new ideas. Our business group has worked with PetersenWest on multiple projects with vastly different needs and they never disappoint. We have stopped shopping around since finding them. Without question, they have become our “go-to” people.

A top packaging design company in the US builds packaging systems that influence product perception, brand credibility, and purchase decisions. These firms design labels, containers, cartons, and packaging visuals that align brand strategy with physical and digital shelf environments.
Such services generally include:
Packaging design companies help businesses build packaging that supports branding, compliance, and conversion by helping them:
Over 90,000 people search for unboxing videos on YouTube each month, which shows how packaging influences purchase interest and brand perception.
72% of consumers will purchase a product if they find it visually appealing.
What’s more, 78% of consumers believe that the sustainability of a product’s packaging is crucial when deciding on a purchase.
Those growing expectations for sustainability and differentiation are helping to push the packaging design market toward $35.06 billion by 2032 from its current value of $26.64 billion (4% CAGR), according to a report by Coherent Market Insights.
Packaging design budgets depend on the number of products, materials, and production constraints. Project pricing scales with scope, customization, and production demands:
Folding cartons usually cost $1.80–$2.25 per unit, while premium rigid boxes range from $8.50–$10 per unit.
While it is possible to find rates as low as $25 per hour, most US packaging design agencies generally charge $100–$149 per hour, driven by higher labor costs and specialized design expertise.
This puts US rates at the higher end of the global market compared to Europe (≈$50–$75/hr) and Asia (often under $65/hr).
Budgets vary by industry due to differences in materials, compliance requirements, and production complexity:
With the world’s largest packaging design market (35% in North America, per Coherent Market Insights’ report), there are plenty of agencies to choose from in the US.
Beyond creative skill, look at strategic thinking, technical precision, and production readiness.
We’ve assembled a selection of top packaging design companies on DesignRush across a range of budget levels to help you find a partner that fits your needs.
| High budget: $100-$150 per hour |
|
| Low budget: $50-$100 per hour |

DesignRush features packaging design agencies across multiple pricing tiers, which allows you to compare firms by hourly rates, project minimums, service focus, and verified reviews. You can filter listings by specialization, industry experience, and team size.
Before hiring an agency in the US to help your business, here are some questions to ask:
Rated 4.8 on Google and 4.7 on Trustpilot, DesignRush Agency Directory is a reliable resource for finding a packaging design agency in USA. We owe this to our executive selection team, which follows a strict screening process when featuring agencies on the platform, assessing key performance indicators, like portfolio, client reviews, and industry reputation.

Agencies can also reach out to DesignRush and must go through the verification process prior to being listed.
An analysis of service specializations within our directory shows that agencies tend to focus on several core packaging-related service areas.
While many firms offer overlapping capabilities, service concentration generally aligns with the following ranges:
Packaging design costs are determined by product complexity, number of SKUs, regulatory requirements, and whether structural design is required alongside visuals.
Based on pricing analysis used across the DesignRush packaging design category, most projects fall into these ranges:
Ongoing packaging support, including line extensions and revisions, is often billed through retainers or per-SKU pricing.
Hourly rates for packaging design firms in the US tend to range between $100 and $149 per hour.
ROI typically unfolds across multiple stages:
