Our Story

Board & Vellum is vibrant design firm built on the idea that an informed and engaged team leads to better design and happy clients. We wouldn’t be where we are today without passion and hard work, and those same two things keep us going strong today.

The bonus: we are an integrated firm, so each project has access to plenty of great knowledge — and that leads to better design.
