Overview

Many graphic design firms claim a broad range of capabilities or experience in multiple media, but few match the depth, number of awards, and business success of The Berndt Group's broad design activity. Our designers and art directors don't just "do a little bit of Web" or a "little bit of print"—they have been hand-picked for the broad range of their skill and experience in diverse media, and their devotion to creative design in the service of lucid strategies and business goals.

As a result of this approach, The Berndt Group adds enormous value by integrating complex campaigns that may span Web, print, multimedia and email—all executed by the same talented designer.

Some of the highlights of our design work include:

• Highly creative Brand Development, producing both original brands for new endeavors and also refining or adding to existing brands (as in the case of sub-brands and product naming). Our brand work has included major public companies. Our value here is extended by the fact that we have strong capabilities in extending brands and building community around them online.
• We are perhaps best know for our WEBBY/national award-winning web site design, with an emphasis on appropriate, distinctive, extremely-high usability sites. We've designed over 150 significant web sites, and on average they have remained "live" much longer than industry standards. We are also experts in Web standards and disabled (508) compatibility.
• Award-winning multimedia design, including major Flash and video projects for Fortune 500 companies. In the past, we've been called on to speak on best practices for rich media, and have been distinguished by the intelligent, integrated way that our multimedia becomes a part of larger campaigns.
• Award-winning print design, creating great collateral materials and identity standards for major clients. Although we do not position ourselves as a print shop first and foremost, our print skills stack up with many of the finer traditional design firms.
• A full range of Internet Marketing, including appropriate and effective email design, banner advertising, and microsites.

As new digital media become available, and broadband changes the meaning of existing rich media, The Berndt Group's design team follows and innovates best practices. We are always thinking about new ways to strengthen our clients' ability to communicate.
