Work With Us
Clients such as PICA (Portland Institute of Contemporary Art), Mercy Corps, Blanchet House, Design Portland, adidas, Willamette Week, and Pendleton have partnered with Center for Design to bring fresh design thinking to their products, brands, and initiatives. Our portfolio includes large-scale murals, packaging, apparel graphics, environment and exhibit design, brand identities, board games, publications, and more. We aim to make a difference by focusing on values-driven initiatives. Though we often partner with nonprofits, we are open to work that makes a difference in culture and communities.
While our client partners commit to engage in a learning-focused environment, our creative process gets results. Many of our clients build lasting relationships with individuals and teams, and our Center for Design alumni leave us with confidence and excitement about what design can do.

Our Team
Each semester we build a team of designers and illustrators from diverse skill sets and backgrounds, who are paired with clients based on skills, interests, experience, and team chemistry.
Creative Director, Center for Design
For over 15 years, creative director and PNCA Graphic Design department chair Kristin Rogers Brown has used her background as an award-winning art director to design meaningful experiences, publications, and brand strategies across media. She spent 2010-2018 as art director for Bitch Media, an independent publishing and media organization whose mission is to provide and encourage an engaged, thoughtful feminist response to mainstream media and pop culture. Her work with nonprofits and values-driven organizations proves that thoughtful design drives engagement, builds community, and makes a difference in people's lives.
