Based in the Berkshire Hills of western Massachusetts, Square One Design is comprised of a small melting pot of people. Literally hailing from across town, country and even lands across the ocean, our team members complement and positively challenge one another through a wide latitude of social, cultural and educational backgrounds. These diversities encourage a creative atmosphere with constantly evolving ideas and developments, which, to the benefit of our clients, help fulfill every project's creative potential.

We strongly believe that anything bearing your name, for either business or personal purposes, is a platform for representing and expressing yourself. Be it a business card, corporate brochure or wedding invitation, we realize that you may not have the time or energy to focus on the details that separate strong and weak presentation; however, you do have the option of entrusting your identity to a qualified team of professionals, like Square One Design, who excel at making their clients look good.

fresh curiosity

In order to discover the fundamental needs of our clients, we listen closely to their thoughts and ideas, but most importantly – we ask questions. Often it is our curiosity and fresh set of investigative eyes that reveals the underlying information necessary to clearly define the design challenge at hand and set the parameters of the project.

innovation

We realize that what works for one company may not work for the next. So, based on the input and inspiration provided by each client, we explore a variety of innovative solutions for the design challenge presented, narrowing our results to a solution that will most effectively communicate the client’s intended message.

creative flexibility

Good Design and Effective Communication does not always mean Big Budget and Elaborate Materials, but then again sometimes it does!

In other words, we cater to your budget without compromising on quality of design.
