About Us

CiesaDesign is a full-service graphic design studio. We focus on strategic, audience-focused visual communications for print and electronic media. Our 13-person staff comprises a talented, time-tested workforce (most with 20 years or more of individual experience) with design, programming and production roles. For 30 years, CiesaDesign has been a premier, award-winning, mid-Michigan design studio. As one of the oldest and largest design firms in the greater Lansing area, CiesaDesign has built a foundation of success around corporate identity and brand development.

We take a big-picture approach to all projects, big and small, in order to assure message consistency and clarity for our clients' communication objectives and goals. Most of our clientele are long-term (10-plus years), and partnering with them in their success is always our main goal.

Our diverse client base runs the gamut from industrial to fashion, from healthcare to education, and just about everything in between. Our client scope runs from local to national clientele. We also serve, at times, as a creative incubator for larger advertising agencies, developing fresh, new ideas in larger new business pitch situations. The nature of the work that we produce ranges from full branding initiatives to individual project work. Whether print collateral or web development, we offer a full complement of services to meet each client's need.

Print endeavors can be as simple as single brochure or ad development or as complex as full collateral campaign development comprising both externally developed communication vehicles and internally developed products.

Web and multi-media endeavors are also wide-ranging in their scope. We offer everything from simple, cost-conscious static web development to interactive, database-driven, multi-tiered web development and custom web application authoring.

Because consistency is king, we go to great lengths to develop easy-to-use-and-administer print and web systems for clients who wish to keep a percentage of their communication output in-house. We do this in order to control brand consistency for all communication product. Through well-designed template programs and easy-to-use web administration tools, this becomes a reality. Our pricing structure is tiered, depending on the nature of the work to be done. Believing that not everything warrants the same hourly rate as initial creative development and that all project work is not created equal, we often offer lower rates on production oriented jobs as an efficient and economical solution for second-tier work. The following pages contain examples of recent product positioning. If you need more information, please don't hesitate to call or email.
