About Us

With studios in Eden Prairie, MN, Bellingham, WA and Marquette, MI, Cyex Design was founded in downtown Seattle, Washington in 1995. Since then, we have grown from designing print advertising and early websites, to creating award winning web branding and market identities for small businesses as well as national clients. We're firm believers in the marketing power of visual and functional communication. We're proficient in all graphic media software.We believe in the power of the "right image", and as creative designers, our mission with every client is to provide him or her with the tools to create a dynamic brand within today's highly competitive marketplace. We collaborate with the best professionals around for a variety of our projects’ goals.

Commercial Artists

We are commercial artists, and as such our primary responsibility is to our client, as well as to his product, which we have agreed to promote. We also keep in mind the equal responsibility we have as creative artists to do what artists have always done: to consider, reflect, and create an original piece which communicates its message in a dynamic fashion.
