At a time when South Bay Ballet was preparing to go through a significant marketing and branding change, the team at design{makes me}happy offered us invaluable assistance and guidance across a range of areas beginning with the recreation of our logo to collateral materials to website design and management. As a team, they are always there at the drop of a hat, sensitive to organizational requirements and quick to meet very tight deadlines. We were looking for an agency that combined first class understanding of the marketing and branding process, as well as the ability to translate them into tangible programs and design. design{makes me}happy has met our needs across the board. I regard them as an integral part of our team and a superbly talented creative design agency.

When I moved to Los Angeles I wanted to find a graphic designer in my same time zone. As soon as I put the word out, I was bombarded with dozens of choices. From the second I saw design{makes me}happy's website I could tell that they were the company for me. Flash forward several years and they have done an amazing job on 4 CD booklets/packaging as well as a major overhaul on my website.
They constantly amaze me with all the incredible design choices they give me for each project, their extremely quick turn time, their reach-ability and of course their professionalism. They helped a friend caught in a last minute pinch from another designer – and are always willing to go that extra step. I recommend them so highly that even if I were to move to another part of the country, I would put aside my desire to be in the same time zone, as I don't think one can do any better than design{makes me}happy.

I have been working with Jennifer and her company for the last four years. I was involved with her on full catalog design and publications, image enhancements, trade show materials, web page graphics and many other graphic design related projects. All of which were executed and performed with the most professionalism and promptness. I will not even slightly second guess not to involve her in my future projects.

Working with design{makes me}happy. spoils you for other designers. Their skill set is rare: one-third project manager, one-third designer and one-third interpreter-magician. Again and again, they take vague and contradicting concepts and turn them around into a cohesive, successful design. And they do it on-time, shockingly timely. Amazing.

design{makes me}happy. totally made me happy!!
As an artist/designer myself, I'm accustomed to doing all my own design work, but lacked the computer skills necessary to create my own website. At first, I was nervous about looking for somebody who I could work with when I set out to find a web designer, but I was very lucky to discover Jennifer at design{makes me}happy.
I was so impressed with them from our very first meeting – when I saw their portfolio – to the completion of my project. They created a beautiful website for me – it's clean, smart, easy to navigate. They followed my lead when appropriate and gave me direction when I needed it.
And they are wonderful to work with – professional, creative, efficient, accommodating and affordable. Their high standards result in success for them and their clients; design{makes me}happy. is the real deal. I give them the highest recommendation and wouldn't hesitate to hire them for any design project.
