Changes to Design Inc.

Our mission is to make the world better through design. We have dedicated the last year and a half to this mission and created a marketplace to bring companies and designers together.

While, we have helped hundreds of companies find and work with great design talent through our platform, not everything has been working as planned.

After much deliberation, we have concluded Design Inc. isn’t growing at the pace we had hoped. Our current business model isn’t the right one to support where we believe the business should ultimately go. As of today, we have made the excruciating decision to close the Design Inc. platform.

What’s Next for Design Inc?

We are going to take some time to figure out the answer to this question. We have learned volumes and want to apply these learnings to our mission with fresh eyes and explore all options on moving forward. We are not going anywhere just yet :)

Thank you so much, your support and kind words mean the world.

With gratitude,

Marc
