What we do:
Discover your unique voice, message, and purpose.
I co-create with my clients. We begin by simply discovering your unique voice, message, and purpose, which then becomes the foundation for your brand and content. We implement this using current technologies, particularly in digital media for the Internet, computers, and mobile phones.
Creating original content from scratch.
If you're unsure how to start, we can guide you. We have the ability to create designs and generate text from scratch. We will collaborate with you to develop content even when there is none.
Organizing a chaos of information.
Or perhaps, you have a disorganized collection of assets, we specialize in organizing information. This can include digital assets and research, or physical materials, tools, and hardware.
Making complex ideas easy to understand.
If you have complex ideas, we can clarify them. We conduct research, invent innovative approaches, and then design and develop solutions.
Design that transcends technology.
What is not reliant on technology? Meaning, story, interaction, and subjective processes. We employ effective design principles, games, simulations, and a deep understanding of human perception and memory.
We use both high-tech and no-tech.
We prototype ideas using digital or physical media. Additionally, we can provide assistance with tech support, application instruction, and systems development. We use technology specifically to enhance communication and learning. We also freely set aside technology, and embrace non-digital tools such as paper and pencil, bulletin boards, face-to-face communication, and collaborative methods like improv, ideation, and brainstorming.
We specialize in web technologies, although we also extend our designs to physical artifacts, including print media, games, learning tools, workstations, sculptures, exhibits, and theater.
Testimonials:
I hire a graphics art expert, Dave Baumbach, to help direct my project, guide me in putting the pieces together. A film guy, a book designer, a set maker, an editor, a storyteller, a far out thinker with rigorous standards whom I can visualize and collaborate with, yet make my own creation. … This book will be one of the most important and creative projects of my life, and I am so grateful to have picked the needle out of the haystack. I just can't imagine having anyone better to work with.
—Mike Lerner DDS, Corte Madera, Ca
Dave has a thoughtful mind, kind nature and an inherent knowledge of communicating on the web. He approached the task with sincere curiosity that was matched by unique solutions. Dave was part business coach to help me distill my core elements and unique voice and part web designer. … Dave has become a trusted partner in my business. He is accessible easy to talk with and work easy to reach him by phone or e-mail with prompt updates.

David got up-to-speed on our many systems and processes quickly. I found him to be responsible, knowledgeable and… passionate about his work. His strategic mind, technical knowledge and strong work ethic proved to be valuable to our team.
—Jon Berardi, e-Learning Manager, Sales Effectiveness, McKesson, San Francisco, Ca
We were in desperate need of a contractor to save a customer project that had gone wrong… We talked for a few minutes, gave him minimal direction, and then sent him the project. Within a matter of hours, Dave returned the project completely fixed and ready to be sent on to our customer. In short, he saved the day.
