About the Studio
DesignMap Inc. is a small but growing design studio with each
principal having over 10 years of continuous and direct experience in
web-based design. We have fantastic clients, from Fortune 50 to fully
funded startups. Our goal is to provide a very high level of design
expertise, cost-effectively for our clients. We consciously avoid the
pitfalls of a large interactive agency, but employ similar user-

Funny -- as the keeper of design standards for Fidelity, I used to hire
people who can "spot an errant pixel at 20 paces..."
Almost the same wording...did the person who wrote that ever work for
me?
