PROCESS 
Let's keep things simple. Good design is a collaboration. First we talk about your business and exchange ideas, then we think and generate solutions, and next we start creating. This is the ongoing cycle that guides the entire process, from day one until to delivery. Good work should make sense. A great concept isn't so great if your audience doesn't get it. It should educate, inform, tell a story. In short, clear, clean, simple, better communication. For large projects Carly can count on her large network of designers, stylists, architects, programmers and strategists to push each project to the fullest. Members of her team has been working together successfully since 2004. 

PRICING 
Pricing is customized per project and considers our rates as well as the client's budget. In general, a project is quoted as a flat fee that includes three rounds of creative development and final deliverable edits. Some clients prefer projects to be billable by the hour and we have worked successfully that way as well.
