Testimonials

Drew is professional, personable, and very quick to respond. He was an absolute pleasure to work with. He quickly grasped what our goals were and created several beautiful designs for us to choose from. His understanding of design is impressive. I can’t wait for the next opportunity to work with Drew.

Working with Drew was very easy. He understood my vision and delivered exactly what I was looking for. Drew turned complicated medical terminology into an easy to read brochure. The artwork was on point and the organization of the materials flowed very nicely from one page to another. Our line of brochures stood out against our competitors for all the right reasons. He is a pleasure to work with, and highly recommended.

FEATURED PROJECT

THE HAITI POSTER PROJECT

The Haiti Poster Project is a fundraising project for Doctors Without Borders. Each designer is responsible for designing and printing a poster that is then sold on the THPP website. My poster is a response to not only the serious issues that Haiti faces post-earthquake, but also the problems that existed before this disastrous event. The headline is a French Creole phrase that translates as "Can you help us please?". The chained hands represent both the Haitian peoples' roots in slavery and the economic chains that have been placed on them through the policies of the international community. The paper and printing of this poster were generously donated by All Out Print Communications.

ABOUT

Hello, so good of you to stop by. As you may have guessed by now, my name is Drew Wohlberg. I have been doing “the graphic design” as the kids call it, for almost four years now and without sounding cliché (too late?), I really couldn’t imagine myself doing anything else. I received my B.S. in Advertising from the University of Illinois in 2002 and feeling my educational career not quite finished, went back to school and received my A.A.S. in Advertising Design and Illustration in 2005. This educational experience, together with my professional experience, allows me to provide a multifaceted approach to visual communications. I understand both the communicative power of design, as well as how to create the visuals which maximize the message. Like any designer, I face the constant struggle to balance my selfish desire for creative freedom with the needs/wants of a client/project. I strive to produce work that allows the audience to understand the message without talking down to them or insulting their intelligence. My main goal as a graphic designer is to be just that much better than I was the day before and to bring that approach into whatever I’m working on.

I currently live in Oak Park, IL with my wife Amanda, our daughter Makenna and our dog Maynard. I enjoy traveling, music, photography and social networking (both business and personal).

I do not enjoy spiders.
