I am so happy we chose to work with Dworsky Design. Laurie helped us through the process of creating an internal "magazine" on our service business. We have received so many compliments on the finished product. "We should create something like this for our customers," is my personal favorite. Laurie is talented and creative. She was responsive to all stakeholders. We met our timeline and budget. Thanks Dworsky Design. More...

Laurie is extremely timely and professional. I have now used her for four different projects. Each time the results have been spot on and then some. 5/5!!

I worked with Laurie on an art book that needed to have a high perceived design value and click all the right buttons for look and quality. Laurie achieved all that easily and of equal importance, the print files had to be exact. She's been doing this for quite awhile and her experience shows immediately and consistently. I would trust any print/design project to her without hesitation. More...

I needed a graphic designer for several projects that needed to be created and/or updated. Laurie has exceeded my expectations. Her turnaround is extremely fast, and she's pleasant to work with. Even if I changed my mind with wording or a design, she handled it with ease and professionalism. She really made my abstract ideas come to life. I love her style (modern and clean in my case) and would definitely recommend her as a designer. I hope to work with her again in the future. More...

I have been a client of Laurie Dworsky's since 2004. Not only is she creative, but for someone as inartistic as I, Laurie's ability to produce output that synthesizes and enhances my input is the essence of a great consultant. As side benefits, she's extremely pleasant and highly responsive. More...

Laurie was very easy to work with – and fast! We enjoyed the give and take of our conversations as we worked together to find the right look and feel for our project. We were very pleased with the final design work - Laurie's icons gave us a much needed visual language that will increase the efficacy of our communication. More...

Dworsky Design has been the perfect choice for our company. After a lengthy conversation with our team to understand our needs, our market and how we wanted to position our brand, Laurie's team came back with an appropriate, professional design layout for our marketing collateral.
She created new graphic elements for our tradeshow booth that grabbed attention and will enhance our website. She took our feedback and adjusted her designs to best meet our needs. She is both professional and pleasant to work.
We will continue to work with Dworsky Design to generate additional sales and marketing materials.

Laurie was amazing to work with on for our non-profit's annual report. She was able to come up with a great layout, and incorporate the edits and visions my team had. We absolutely love the finished project, and were so impressed with her quick turn-around at each stage of the process. Thank you, Laurie, for the wonderful annual report! More...

The web work she farms out to us concentrates around friendly, charitable organizations that help everyone in the community.

What information do you need from a client before you can start work?
Before I start any design I need details of the project. Budget, look and feel, timing, etc.
What do you love most about your job?
I love being creative, it is not a job, but a hobby, the best combination!
What inspired you to start your own business?
My dad is a very accomplished, award-winning Architect in Los Angeles, so the arts was something I was always interested in. Architecture was not something I wanted to pursue, but my graphic design is and was very influenced by his design philosophy, “Less is More”.
I came upon Graphic Design by accident. I was enrolled in college as an Art Major, but took time off to figure out my career. I met a guy at a Sushi Bar who had designed the logo, menu, etc. for the restaurant, he offered me his business card and told me I could come work for him while I figured out what to do, so I worked there part-time. I went back to school majoring in graphic design, and after I graduated he gave me a full-time position at his Agency. I learned more from working there than I did in school, it was like a “Graduate” program for me. I eventually worked for another Agency as a Junior Art Director, and in the first two weeks I worked there, one guy quit and the other guy was fired, so now I was the Principle Art Director! While working at the agency I learned about photoshoots, typography, layout, and dealing with clients. My main account was with Baxter Pharmaceuticals.
I stayed there for 2 years and after speaking with my father, decided to venture out on my own. My dad bought me my first Mac computer, in 1993. I sat in front of this machine in my living room for 2 weeks, with no clients! I got a call from someone at Baxter in the Marketing Department that really loved my work from my previous employer and they asked if I could take them on as a client. I almost fell off my chair. Eventually, my business started to grow and I found more clients from a variety of industries. I have had the opportunity to work with such diverse clients as Cedars-Sinai Hospital, Navy Seal Foundation, BAFTA, and Concern Foundation For Cancer Research, to name a few. For the past 25 years, I have valued each client, each experience, the positive and the negative, and the most important thing is that I look forward to my job.
Why should our clients choose you?
I provide quality design and I love what I do and also value the relationship with my clients
