ABOUT

Let’s make something clear. When we talk about our work at Cober, we’re really talking about me. Michael Cober. A one-man band, an army of one, a lone wolf, a solitary man… but not in a weird, misanthropic way. You get the point.

We’re… I’m… a multi-disciplinary designer dedicated to great design. Design that improves, adds meaning, and effectively resolves our… my client’s business challenges. Services include brand identity, websites, and printed collateral. My mission is to provide clients with design solutions that meet all of their business requirements.
The process is both creative and collaborative.

Philosophy

Good design makes things better. A good process makes doing good design easier. Do good design within a defined and effective process.

Process

In a world full of complex industries with complex challenges, and complex objectives, complexity often seems the de-facto solution. But time and time again, the simple, well thought out solution, proves to be the one that resonates; The one that most effectively communicates the correct message and elicits the desired response.

And so the challenge is to devise a process (simple & effective) that consistently results in simple, well thought out, effective solutions that evoke the desired response.

Our process: Listen, Think, Design.

We believe that by listening to the issues, the problems, and the ideas, we will be able to think within the context of the challenge. Thinking within this context provides the perspective to understand the challenges and envision the possibilities. Designing with insight and knowledge allows us to creatively find the solution that will meet the objectives in an effective and appropriate manner.
