I had a wonderful experience working with Chris Heinen on a few logo and branding projects. He was very innovative and a pleasure to work with.
I appreciated his strong knowledge for marketing and branding, which made it very easy for me to communicate my ideas. I would recommend him and his company without reservation.

When asked to assist with the design of the 2009 New York State P.E.O. (Philanthropic Educational Organization) cookbook, Chris Heinen pulled the whole project together and made the process a seamless one.
Chris heard the challenges, processed the information and created a winning cover on the first attempt. His creative solution incorporated the theme and brand guidelines required in the final design. Because of it’s graphic design appeal, the cookbooks sold-out. Chris works well within a tight deadline and is highly recommended as a resource.

Chris Heinen recently helped us re-design our logo and website. He was very patient and really took the time to listen to our needs and ideas. I found that he had a great balance of technical skills and marketing knowledge to create a professional website and logo. I knew that I could trust his ideas and recommendations, as I respect him as a person as well as his portfolio of work.

Chris’ work is professional, expedient and worked with me on the project I had with my short time schedule. A t-shirt design concept was presented and a full mock-up of the product was delivered later that day, even after a few redesigns on one graphic. I got more than I could have ever hoped for and the end product came out marvelous. Thanks again!
