Valhalla connects clients to their consumers through literal, physical or emotional experiences with graphics & marketing programs that elevate brand positioning while increasing sales. Our identities grow beyond the brand, becoming visual representations of a demographic and spaces we’ve created are interesting enough to be regularly posted on social media.
Design & Conquer isn’t just a motto, it’s a way of life. The real-world is a nonstop design critique, constantly being analyzed to find ways to make it better. We love conquering design dilemmas & Making Things Awesome.

Our clients are our best salesmen.
Our clients are our best salesmen.
By telling their friends & colleagues about the great work we do and bring our services with them when they change positions, they bring Valhalla most of its workload.
Seemingly trivial but it’s something that makes us extremely proud. We’ve worked with many of our clients for 10+ years and have become good friends in the process. By providing awesome work delivered on time, we built a foundation that makes these types of relationships possible.
We’re very grateful for having the opportunity to work with friends on fun projects and appreciate them going out of their way to recommend us to others.
They say it better than we do.

PROCESS
Global branding project, $20k set of car wheels, restaurant interior or $18 t-shirt, the formula remains the same.
1
Identify Problem
Before we can start anything, we need to know why the project exists. This can be simple "make us some awesome (fill-in product)", complex "our brand isn't where we want it to be" or anything in between.
2
Set Target
A crucial step where we set the target & work our way back. The design process is the same whether the project is for a 12yo or a guy who buys a Ferrari an AmEx Black but the results are night & day different.
3
Research
This could quite literally be listening to music (hence the Beastie Boys photo), resarching online, digging through a bookstore, shopping trendy LA Boutiques, snowboarding or any combination of the above.
4
Concept
This is where the magic happens, we collect & organize our research, then put pencil to paper. Sketches, notes & tidbits are scanned into the computer, we start fleshing out concepts & designs come together.
5
Design
We've received feedback from the concepts & revise the designs before handing off the final files. Then we wait and wait (and wait) for our babies to be released for everyone to enjoy (and us to show off)!
