Homegrown, locally sourced creatives.

The Creative Industry launched in Chinatown, DC, over twenty years ago because we saw a need to provide clients with creative design solutions to help them accomplish their goals and objectives. Since then, we’ve worked with non-profits, associations, B2B and B2C, and retail groups:

  • designing developing websites

  • branding initiatives

  • marketing campaigns

  • publications and

  • other creative services.

We help you engage more successfully with your audiences. (links)

Small AND passionate, we’re involved in every aspect of your project.

Our experience and knowledge tell us that being involved in every phase of our client’s projects ensures the most favorable outcome. Once you start working with us, we won’t hand you off to a project or account manager; we will work directly with you throughout the process. Your satisfaction is of utmost importance to us because when you’re successful, we are too!

Over many years, we have developed a close network of creatives, designers, and developers to collaborate with us on projects that require more resources. Doing this allows us to pick and choose the right people for our projects, giving us the ability to scale and work with small, medium, and larger clients. There’s nothing too big we can’t handle; contact us to discuss your project now.
