Testimonials

"I hired Elevator to create the Christmas cards for Inkster Group. Our card had to convey the unique character of our boutique forensic investigations group, be memorable to our national corporate clients, and professional. A brief meeting was all it took for Damian to translate a concept to paper and produce a card that clients still remember several years later. I strongly recommend him if you seek a quality, creative designer who understands the needs of corporate clients."

Sandra Desautels - Director at Navigant Consulting

"Elevator has a keen ability to understand client needs and translate that into an exceptionally creative and communicative design."

Blair Witzel - Senior Consultant, MD+A Consultants

"Damian’s work proved extremely valuable as part of a challenging project to create a distinct and refreshed identity for Women’s College Hospital as it separated from a partnership with Sunnybrook Hospital. Damian’s brand strategy effectively communicated this new institutional autonomy despite the political sensitivities associated with the split. Furthermore, Damian’s design allowed the website to communicate a focus on women’s health issues and services without feeling exclusionary. The client was very pleased with the new look-and-feel."

Edward McDonnell - Managing Partner, MD+A Consultants

"Damian has exceptional client focus combined with the ability to innovate creatively. His project management skills are a huge asset when it comes to team ventures."

Chris Holbrook - Principle at Toronto Cannot Afford

"We enlisted Damian as the creative director for the Canadians for Equal Marriage campaign with the challenging goal of branding a campaign that needed to build grassroots support and energize a motivated base without marginalizing the issues or alienating the general public. Damian’s creative branding and design strategies helped us deliver an effective vehicle for fundraising and a focal point for coordinating a very public, and very effective campaign for social change. We certainly believe that the brand strategy and its effect on shaping the way messages were delivered was an important element in the success of the campaign."

Edward McDonnell - Managing Partner, MD+A Consultants

"We hired Elevator to create the branding for an electrical engineering firm and his work was superlative. From the initial logo design, he created the company’s business cards, website template, stationary template and even a van logo and staff uniforms. I have found them to be highly professional with a unique and innovative vision that manages to create tangible and beautiful results from elusive client ideas."

Denisse Rudich - Director at IED Engineering

"I enlisted in the help of Elevator when I started the company, Damian worked closely with me to understand my needs and decipher the true identity behind my “feeling” for the company. I was absolutely delighted with their professionalism, and with the process, they guided me through as they built Happy Tummy’s logo, brand, identity and website to specifications that I alone couldn’t have dreamed of, yet which matched the company’s needs perfectly."

Natalia del Arbol, CNP - Principle and Nutritional Consultant at Happy Tummy

"Elevator provided an end result beyond what we had expected or hoped for. They took what could have been a simple job to a level we had not anticipated giving design suggestions and direction that surpassed their promise. We will continue to hire Elevator in the future and recommend them unreservedly."

Rick DeClute - Principle at DeClute Real Estate Inc.

"We have worked with Elevator on a number of projects with clients from the non-profit sector and entrusted them with our own brand redesign. Their work for us demonstrated a strong understanding of the clients’ objectives and delivered brand strategies that effectively communicated the corporate vision through clear and effective visual directions."

Edward McDonnell - Managing Partner, MD+A Consultants

"Elevator’s work has been outstanding throughout the years – they seem to be able to turn seemingly contradicting ideas (often from multiple individuals) into results that go above and beyond our expectations. Constant reinvention, they never deliver results using the same style nor materials. Would recommend them to anyone wishing to outdo the competition!"
