Chances are, your‘re not the only one in your field. Others are there as well, reliably, offering
similar goods and service. But nobody works quite the way you do; you have unique knowledge, a personal touch; your stance and perspective are yours alone. Let it be known. Hire a skillful designer as your representative, a specialist who will help you form your message so it can be carried far and wide, where it will be noticed, understood, and praised.

ENDORSEMENTS

"Grégoire is first rate. I have worked successfully with him in three different companies on projects ranging from logo design/corporate image, website design to icon design. He is a pleasure to work with: on-time and on-budget. Extremely creative. He is great at matching the style of his designs to what I need to communicate. I highly recommend Grégoire for a wide range of creative design projects."

– Donna Jeker, Vice President at HiTechSolutions

"Grégoire understood our corporate culture quickly, and worked with us much more as a team-member than a consultant. His facility with language and his multi-cultural sensibility were crucial in our decision to hire him to establish the branding of our international IT firm. He does remarkable work, I highly recommend him."

– Bernard Normier, Consultant, Board member at Aproged

"Grégoire is a brilliant designer who, with apparent ease, created beautiful and thoughtful logos and images for our projects. Plus, he's a pleasure to work with. My highest recommendation!"

– Chris Siebel, Senior Scientist at Genentech

"For over fifteen years, I have worked with Grégoire on numerous projects from architectural signage to brand and web development. Most recently, we collaborated on the creation of the identity system, collateral materials and website for a new non profit entity that is chronicling the history of life sciences. As the art and communications director, Grégoire provided me with an outstanding creative design partner, a collaboration with a diverse team which resulted in his incredible illustrative rendering of the final logo concept and a truly outstanding website. Grégoire's design expertise, his ability to render abstract concepts into compelling images, and his overall artistry when combined with his knowledge of systems and site morphology makes him a rare talent -- plus he is multi-dimensional: well traveled, literary, a thinking man!"

– Lisa Sullivan, Design, Strategic Planning & Communications

"Grégoire's artwork is fresh and innovative, and he offers unique and often unexpected conceptual solutions for the client. He is delightful to work with and is talented, intelligent, witty, and passionate about his design and vision. Just look at his site!"

– Helen Ravenhill, Producer at Bazillion Pictures
