We make work that works for you.
What We Believe In
Asking Questions Curiosity fuels our creative process. We dig into context, question conventions, and look for patterns that reveal new possibilities. This discipline allows creativity to move beyond aesthetics, shaping ideas that are both original and purposeful.
Strength in NumbersWhen you work with us, we become an extension of your team: adapting to your workflow, strengthening your thinking, and helping execute with clarity and momentum. We develop, present, and implement ideas designed to move your business forward.
Challenge GoodGood is a starting point, not the finish line. Good is where differentiation goes to die. We push past the acceptable to create work that truly stands apart. We challenge our work relentlessly to build brands that are meaningfully different.
Meet the FoundersWe’re a small team that makes a big impact on your business.
Julia Cho
Co-Founder / Head of Operations
Left Brain
Julia keeps brand projects honest and on track. She asks the hard questions—Does this ladder back to strategy? Are we solving the right problem? Can we realistically deliver this?—then builds the roadmap to get there.
Her approach: anticipate what could go wrong, align stakeholders early, and protect creative excellence while respecting timelines.
The result: projects that ship on strategy, on time, and without the chaos.
Denny Liu
Co-Founder / Head of Design
Right Brain
With deep expertise in brand strategy and design execution, Denny leads projects from strategic positioning through final production, ensuring every visual decision ladders back to business objectives. His work spans category leaders and emerging brands, always focused on the same outcome: Design that performs.
His work has been featured in The Dieline, HOW, and Packaging of the World.
When he’s not working for you, he’s working on his golf swing.
Our strength lies in our ability to stay agile and personal. We prioritize meaningful conversations over endless presentations, ensuring your goals are always at the forefront. Think big agency smarts mixed with the personal touch of a small shop that’s solely focused on your success.
We partner with forward-thinking brands to design their future and provide them with the tools they need to scale and grow confidently.
