DK in 20 seconds
Welcome to Design Kompany.
We exist to help you realize your fullest potential as a small business, using
dialogue as a key tool to discern your clear, authentic brand message.
If you value thoughtful conversation, accuracy, and exquisite solutions arrived upon through solid design thinking, you might like DK.
We've done naming, branding design, and message design to help people express a strong core identity. But it has to be based on passion. Smaller companies are a great match for DK, because we love talking marketing and strategy with those owners, whose values and affinities often set the company culture's tone.
We work
remotely with people anywhere in the world who are: aware, awake, curious, and respectful of the design process, which we think sets the stage for great design when done well.
Talk to us! We're listening.

Things we like to write about? Travel, art, architecture, museums, and cafes. Design, materials, design thinking, but more than anything else, process. We like to say, "Trust the process." It really makes a big difference if you start with a fresh page, and think together with us on where and what you can become.
Trains are good, too. Small comments on parenting, or what other people are doing, and what other people are saying about creativity, and the creative process, and a shift from the industrial way of thinking towards more free-form association that jogs new waves of thought --- all of that is DK's beat.
Plus we'll write about people we meet, things we learn, and all the cross-cultural and multiple dimensions of interpretations. We have another blog getting going just to consider
dialogue design.
But to make this blog easier to sift, here are the topics we're slotting our blog posts within:
Interesting menu.
Thanks~
People have called our work “minimalist modern.” The thing that you can’t see unfortunately is the antidote to a too-stark design: to warm up the sparse, clean look a bit we found a textured paper. The stock we picked has some weave and tooth to it, along with a few stray marks that give the impression of a vulnerable human touch within the paper here and there.
Oh boy. Does that sound too art-critique-y? Sorry.
That looks like a great menu. Do you know how much it cost though? To make the menu, not their food prices.
Hi, thanks for the comment. About the cost, Design Kompany quotes all projects individually.
Give us a shout at letsplay [at] design-kompany.com if you’re in search of an update of your company’s “look and feel,” your brand.
I really like the look of that menu - it’s difficult to come up with something that’s attractive, easy to read and that’s organized so customers can understand it. Must be especially tough to do so in more than one language!
Good job.
Love the look. I find it to be a really crisp clean simple design. Looks so much more professional than the standard menu I’ve seen at many Asian restaurants. The blue headings along with the subtle coloring of the Japanese writing is excellent.
