We’re a design studio specializing in visual communication in all its forms. We are visual strategists who believe that good graphic design is a craft requiring a unique and inspired approach. But above all else, we’re a relationship company. Creating and nurturing relationships is what we do best – with our team, our suppliers, our partners, and our clients. Providing outstanding creative is a given, but how we get there is uniquely Squeeze. As a small shop we get to know our clients, create great relationships, and then develop the great ideas that ultimately help them accomplish their “big” things. We’re creative problem solvers, and we have fun doing it.
