For many clients, we are their “go-to.” We are used for a one-stop shop to handle every marketing need a business has–from logos to marketing plans to photography. It’s nice to know that there’s a place you can depend on regularly to take care of your brand.

Problem solving. Stunning visuals. Collaboration.
These are the things that have driven me for over 15 years...in big companies, small companies, and on my own. I love minimalism as both a design aesthetic and as an approach to everyday life. If it doesn't add to the intended message, it doesn't belong. This fosters clean and digestible design, which is crucial for the success of your visual communication pieces.
Please contact me for my pricing structure. I give a 50% discount to non-profits, so please reach out!
In my spare time I love the usual things: cooking, hiking with my tripod pup, yoga, reading, painting, playing guitar, camping, jumping in ice cold rivers, talking to my cats, building them intricate catios, etc.
Please contact me if you have any upcoming projects you might be interested in working on together. I would love to help you realize your dream.

Context
Plazm magazine started as a cooperatively published, not-for-profit periodical that sparked a nascent creative community in early 1990s Portland. As the magazine garnered accolades and awards, it spawned a commercial design and branding firm whose clients have included Nike, LucasFilm, and MTV, along with local businesses and nonprofits such as PICA, the Northwest Film Center, and Fort George Brewery.
Plazm Design co-founder Niko Courtelis moved back to Portland from New York City a few years ago. He and Joshua Berger have relaunched the studio with some of their long-term collaborators in fields such as font design, editorial content, and public policy. Niko and Josh launched The Portland Stamp Company in 2016. Plazm magazine is now published by PICA (Portland Institute for Contemporary Art) a 501c3 nonprofit, under Josh’s leadership as founding Art Director.
