Rhombus - Graphic Design & Creative Services

Rhombus - Graphic Design & Creative Services RHOMBUS, INC: Comprehensive Graphic Design and Creative Services. We strive for a process that’s personalized and focused, yet still relaxed and even fun.

Founded in 1997 by owners John Chamberlin and Brent Swenson, our goal has always been to provide distinctive and effective design solutions, along with a design experience that‘s both enjoyable and rewarding. At Rhombus, we're not pretentious design-types – our clients have discovered that although we take their visual communication needs very seriously, we don’t take ourselves too seriously. What

makes us different? Well for starters, you always know who you'll be working with. Unlike a large impersonal agency, your input isn't filtered down from an account executive to a project leader to the designers and production staff actually working on your project. With all those steps, your original message can be easily diluted. At Rhombus, our smaller size means that we eliminate the middle-man — the person you discuss your creative needs with is the same person designing your materials. That means you get the work you asked for, every time. But don’t let our size fool you. Like a virtual agency, we have a vast network of trusted industry partners whose talents we tap as required for any given project. But the beauty is we don’t have the overhead of keeping them on staff full-time, so we can keep our costs down without sacrificing the quality of our work. And the biggest difference of all is that you’ll actually have fun working with us. There's no drama, no designer attitude — just a common goal of creating some great design work that serves your needs, not ours.

Spring is here! Renewal is all around us and it’s time for us to refresh our own little corners of the world. Why not apply this spirit of renewal to your brand?

As luck would have it, we’re also feeling pretty refreshed here at Rhombus and we’re eager to help you check some things off your Spring to-do list. Contact us about any new project between now and April 30 and receive a 15% discount off our design fees. In the spirit of Spring, why not let us help you grow your business a little?

What’s the value of a Brand? It’s the visual personality of your company or product. It conveys a promise of quality, credibility and experience. It evokes feelings and memories that may or may not be obviously connected to the company or product. Brands just feel “right” or “wrong,” “comfortable” or “awkward.”

In this example for E & J Gallo Winery, we developed a brand for the company’s sales training program that reflects some of the core visual characteristics of the company’s parent brand, but establishes a new and unique voice that’s also separate. Our solution evokes qualities of rich tradition, warmth, artisan quality, precision, efficiency, and technical precision. The visual style and color palette draw heavily from the old world charm of classic vineyards.

Components included a custom-built and embossed seminar training workbook binder with unique bindery elements such as custom tabs and foldout pages, a companion iPad app for seminar attendees, seminar PowerPoint presentations, and multiple workbook versions for different training protocols.

Do you need to update your brand or maybe you’re starting from ground zero? We can help. It’s what we do.

We heart logos. Of course we enjoy designing them for our clients and crafting unique and lasting brands around them. But there's something about any logo that's well-crafted and truly iconic that's worthy of admiration. The Apple logo is definitely that... clean, elegant, dynamic, flexible, universal. Props to a classic. Well done, Rob Janoff.

Brand is key... All your business communications should visually reinforce it. And the core DNA of your brand consists of your logo and your business forms. Even in today’s increasingly paperless society, the value of solidly branded business cards, envelopes, letterhead, invoices, etc. as de facto marketing tools can’t be denied. Let us help you define a unique, consistent, and impactful visual style for everything you use to communicate with your customers.

Interactive design ranges from websites to graphic user interfaces for desktop, web, and mobile applications to informational kiosks and exhibits.

Why not make your unique interactive creation look and perform its best? And why not contact us to help you realize it? As you’ll see from our samples, we’re pretty good at it.

Print collateral can be many things: brochure, catalog, annual report, newsletter, poster, signage, stationery, direct mail, presentation folder, and many more. If it involves applying ink to a surface, chances are we’ve done it before.
