AboutNYMDESIGN: We are a unique design studio in the sense that we approach each project with the custom solutions and specialized attention they merit. We are a traditional design studio in the way we offer solutions for a variety of clients in a variety of media - making the scope of our work creatively comprehensive. Our creative approach to each individual project allows us to design in an environment that is innovative, authentic and dynamic. The design enhances the content it frames: it is a transparent container that holds and shapes the information within in a way that is unique, yet relevant and informative. Our varied design aesthetic has allowed us to create work that can be simple or complex, single or multi-dimensional, narrative or image oriented, and precise or dynamic. Internationally, we have worked with organizations such as Microsoft, United Nations, and Amnesty International. Within the US, our clients have ranged in scope from government (MBTA/Boston T) to educational (Yale & Harvard Universities), from cultural (Neighborhood Music School) to small innovative businesses (UM Projects & Shubrah), among others.
