Most people assume that “design thinking” is something that is relevant only to visual or artistic works. In fact, it is a problem-solving process that is applicable for addressing a wide range of challenges. It includes a number of steps that any organization or group of people can easily implement to identify new pathways to business solutions.
To learn more about the components of design thinking and how to incorporate them into your marketing and/or communications development, download our white paper in the resources section of our website.

URA (Universities Research Association) is a consortium of more than 90 leading research universities in the U.S., United Kingdom, Italy, and Japan that supports research in physical sciences, engineering, and government lab management and operations. We developed an entirely new design for URA’s website to increase interest and engagement among academia, government, and private enterprise. Our work incorporated large animated graphics, an abundance of striking photos highlighting cutting-edge technology and research facilities, colorful tabs, and easy navigation to key content into a more appealing visual platform than URA had previously employed.

Capitol Technology University is Maryland’s only independent institution of higher learning dedicated exclusively to STEM education and careers. After implementing a successful undergraduate admissions brand platform based on “geek pride” for nearly 10 years, Capitol Tech was seeking to evolve it to continue to appeal to current prospective students.
TDC developed a new visual brand presentation that provided a fresh look to Capitol Tech’s materials. In addition, we established a new brand positioning statement that put greater emphasis on Capitol Tech’s impact on students’ job prospects, resulting in a new brand platform and campaign called “Charge Up Your Future.” The campaign highlighted rapidly growing degree programs such as astronautical engineering, autonomous unmanned systems, cybersecurity, computer science, and others. The “Charge Up” branding was applied to a look book, direct mail, Open House email, and even a new mascot design
for Capitol Tech.
Consumers, in particular American consumers, believe in an abundance of choices. After all, it’s in our national DNA. We want freedom—especially the freedom to have what we want when we want it, and in the color, flavor, and size that we want. [Continue reading on The Design Channel Blog]

Effective Brands Use Narrative to Engage Customers
Hard facts and figures usually inform most of our day-to-day purchase decisions. Whatever’s faster, lighter, bigger, longer lasting, or less expensive usually wins our wallets.
