About Us

Watertable Creative is the cumulative design experience of Chris Dietrich, spanning 30 years of corporate and nonprofit work. He and his many specialty vendors and design assistants can build your brand from scratch or take your existing marketing approach to a whole new level. From concept to implementation, we evoke the core essence of your organization so that you can continue to reflect that energy back out to the world, consistently, affordably, and looking the part. We can’t wait to learn more about your next incarnation.

EXPERTISE

Problem Solving
We start by asking a lot of questions. Then we organize your goals into tangible design objectives, often producing spectacular and long-lasting results. Good design is not about us, but about what is best for you and your organization. Many of our clients have no idea how they will accomplish their goals, keep everything on schedule, or what the final results should even look like. Sometimes neither do we, but our commitment is to making you look good while staying on schedule, on budget, and on brand.

Branding
Our strengths lie in creating brands that convey the essence of your organization’s mission and culture. It doesn’t stop with your logo, rather it extends into everything you do. We can help you identify the heart of your organization and develop that into a holistic brand that stands the test of time.

Typography
Type is at the core of our work as we explore the many ways that words and symbols help you communicate. From well-placed punctuation to eye-catching headlines or the minute details of an annual report, we excel at typographic organization, finesse and impact. We often customize fonts or symbols to suit the essence of our clients’ corporate or personal character.

Printing
Trained in industrial-era printing and pre-press production techniques, Chris has experimented with most print technologies from custom hand-assembled mailings to automated variable data marketing campaigns. He has over 30 years of experience in production techniques from precise currency printing to branding irons and pretty much everything in between. Allowing him to work directly with your printer can make the difference between success and getting burned.

UX Design
Chris designed some of the world’s first corporate websites back in 1995 before CompuServe moved its major clients to independent hosting. He has been designing digital marketing tactics, mobile apps, and UI controls ever since. Let us help you keep your digital brand and business offerings in sync.

Signage and Packaging
Oftentimes your brand needs to be physically printed on stuff out in the real world, like a storefront sign, a highway billboard, or emblazoned on a Chihuahua sweater. We have a world of knowledge on how to get your logo fabricated on the side of a skyscraper or pop out amongst a sea of products.

Nonprofit and Local Organizing
Many of our clients are nonprofits, mostly because we enjoy working with people who are passionate about changing the world, but also because we are exceptionally skilled at helping fledgling companies or organizations get clear about their message, their execution, and their mission through the process of creating a foundation-building brand.

Talk is cheap. Actually, it’s free.
