Design Central, Inc., formed in 1995, has grown into a nationally recognized and respected graphic

communications studio. In choosing to remain an intimate, design-driven business, we have allowed ourselves

the ability to concentrate on impeccable marketing and graphic design solutions for a handful of select clients

from the Washington, D.C. metropolitan region, as well as across the nation. Our belief in putting you, the client,

first, is reflected in the personal service and details we provide on every job, project or campaign.

Our “hands-on, personal approach” gives us the opportunity to understand who you are, what you do,

and how to accomplish your vision and goals. Together, through the development of free-flow brainstorming,

we help you connect with your audience through clear, concise, superb design solutions – all within responsible

schedules and budgets and always in line with your strategies, visions and goals.

Our philosophy: the purpose of design is to communicate, and visual communications should convey and convince

in the blink of an eye, clearly and concisely. Design must stand out in a world cluttered with visual images.

It must be relevant and spark emotion.

Please find, in the next few pages, some thumbnails of our print work and insights into how we have approached

design challenges in the past.
