Companies that value design lead the pack.
The challenge for companies everywhere is to attract consumers to their products and services and keep them in the face of fickle markets. Never, in fact, has effective communication been more important in business. And it has increased the pressure within companies to establish environments and attitudes that support the success of creative endeavors, internally and externally. More often than not, companies that value design lead the pack.

ASTAE, Asia Sustainable and Alternative Energy Program (ASTAE) has helped promote, implement, and scale up the use of sustainable energy solutions in Asia. Through the 2007-09 business plan period, ASTAE funded 42 activities that leveraged 13 Word Bank projects promoting sustainable energy, for a total lending envelope of just over US$2 billion.

ASTAE hired us to redesign the look of their technical reports and annual reports. ASTAE's work is big business and depends on the generosity of numerous donors whom expect reports on accomplishments via attractive graphic materials.  View the re-designed covers below.

Finding the Right Designer.
There is no litmus test to say one firm can do the job and the other can't, or that a firm without a certain kind of experience can't learn. In fact, some companies see a real benefit in hiring a design firm that brings neither prior experience nor preconceptions to their project. If you've identified a firm you'd like to work with and are comfortable making a leap of faith, you probably should.
If you are in need of graphic design, you've landed exactly where you need to be -us! 

RISE, Responsible Industry for A Sound Environment, took the leap and choose us to design their 2010 Annual Report. View a few pages below.
