Get to know Polychrome
About us.
A proudly unusual hybrid of nonprofit know-how and Fortune 500 brand experience, we’re a creative agency providing impact-making organizations and small businesses with inspired, thoughtful graphic design and grant consulting. Together, we make everything from the tactical to the transformative.
What we do + How we think.
Living out an organization’s core goals through the work itself is obviously the most important role of any nonprofit team. The mission on the wall is why you do what you do. But it’s truly critical – especially in an unsettled time – to make sure the story of that work gets told regularly, clearly, and meaningfully. You couldn’t be more needed right now, and people need to know about you.
Whether we’re engaged to guide your entire brand or an individual project, thinking holistically and strategically is what we do. It’s baked into our process. And it’s where the real progress happens. While we rise to short-term challenges every day, we’re also here to truly get to know you and connect the dots for your brand in the long-term wherever possible. This approach isn’t always easy, but when it comes to building something that lasts, it’s absolutely worth it.
