Image is everything. How you or your company is perceived will make all the difference.
Amber Room Studios also believes in transparency. That is, how your organization is presented should not be a representation of the designer. Or rather we believe in telling your story and not being stuck in a certain style or methodology. If hip and modern isn't your thing then perhaps a classical approach is necessary. Or maybe something else altogether. We are here to help you realize your endeavor. We will actually listen, give you our input and work to get it right.
