The importance of client partnership.

Much of the time, graphic designers (and creatives in general) can get stuck doing the grunt work, meeting deadlines and working out of a dry creative desert to just get stuff done. Unrealistic timelines and “can you do this real quick?” are kryptonite for any creative. Can we get an amen?!

Fleecher Designs was birthed out of the need for more creative freedom, more of a challenge and more face-to-face time with real clients who are passionate about the impact they have.

“I started this studio to get out of (and pull others out of!) that very same rut -- to forge strong systems, work with amazing clients, and fight to stay creative to make work that matters every day both inside and outside of the office.”
Laura Balfour, Owner

Knowing that every day, we get to do great work with real clients who are making big impacts drives everything we do. We choose to partner with clients who inspire us, and help communicate their messages through strong branding and design.

It has been an honor to grow with several of our clients from their inception (and ours!) to incredible growth and positive change. Last week we were able to celebrate with Refuge Coffee Co. as they opened their first brick and mortar -- from the early dreams of what could be for this very big idea, from brand identity to coffee truck design to coffee shop, we couldn’t be more proud of our friends and the big work that they are doing in and around the Atlanta area. Seeking to create refuge by providing neighborly hospitality, Refuge Coffee Co. does good by serving the global community through social networking, commerce, and coffee-related job creation and job training for Clarkston’s refugee population.
