My studio was established in 1993 after
I had worked for many other design, marketing and communications firms. I learned a lot from the good ones and even more from the bad ones.
I’ve been fortunate enough to work with a variety of forward-thinking clients from all sorts of organizations and business sectors. They range from large multi-national corporations to the little clothing boutique around the corner – technology innovators
to Old World food companies.
Through this broad range of experience I am able to bring a little warmth to a big company and give smaller companies that professional polish required for today’s marketplace.
Every new project and every new client
bring exciting possibilities. Simply put,
I just want
to do great work for good
people who appreciate that, in the end,
effective design pays multiple dividends.
Some of the industries and clients I have
had the pleasure to serve:
“Kevin is a whip-smart, client-focussed designer. He is extraordinarily marketing-savvy and places client objectives at the fore of his work. Then he delivers a product to wow them. His approach is always fresh, memorable and true to objective. I've worked with Kevin for more than 20 years on dozens of projects as both a colleague and as his client. He's fun and a joy to work with ~ easy-going, flexible and genuinely creative. If you haven't checked out his portfolio, you should. He'll make you look brilliant!”
Cindy Wilson
Communications Director

“I worked extensively with Kevin on a corporate-wide re-branding project that encompassed product printing and packaging, literature, and other marketing collateral. His work was first rate and he was truly supportive of the entire process. Though our company was his client, I felt like I was working with a partner. I enjoyed the opportunity to work with a real pro.

“We chose Kevin specifically for his creativity and strategic approach to brand identity development, and he still surpassed our expectations!”

“We had Kevin create invitations for a VIP customer meeting in New Orleans. Kevin came back with 3 concepts that were festive and eye catching. We made a choice, mailed them out, and the response rate was exceptional. I was later approached by another department requesting to repurpose the piece. I'm happy to recommend Kevin Akers Design + imagery.”
