We are a worker-owned communications design firm and union shop.

We create designs that help YOU win. The campaigns we’ve worked on are some of the most recognizable in the post-9/11 era, and that’s because we are not only designers serving movements for liberation; our members are also activists and organizers deeply embedded in the movements we serve.

“Our friends at Design Action bring great energy and ideas, and are trusted partners for our graphics work for the long haul.

They were really thoughtful in considering our goals and aesthetics, understood our politics and programmatic objectives, and put that information to work in the clear and beautiful designs for our project.”

— Thomas Mariadason
Director, Center for Political Education
