"The vibrancy of our brand was brought to life in new ways through Luke's expertise within the physical realm. The brand's expression pulled to the front through texture, color, and space.

Luke took our existing guidelines, pushed on the boundaries of the system and re-invented fresh and engaging ways for our brand to show up in the world."

Elizabeth Gilmore
Director, Brand at Dropbox

"Luke is far too talented to be as kind as he is. His ability to single-handedly bring ideas from vague strategy through to print-ready collateral makes him an ideal design partner.

His unwavering positivity, collected manner under pressure, compassion for junior teammates, and ability to inspire those around him makes him a great leader and even better person.
"

Morgan Mayer
Director, Creative at Alfred

"Luke transformed our space into a one-room exhibition for our brand's first experiential activation in LA, executing impeccably and flawlessly at a moment's notice.

His range of expertise across identity and exhibition design in commercial environments is what makes him a go-to partner for brand design strategies and physical experiences."
