What our clients are saying about us:
“We have worked with Diane Sawyer and Sawyer Design Associates for the last couple of years on
several projects and found their work to be exemplary. When we decided to completely redesign
our university magazine after many years, we did a great deal of due diligence in choosing the
designer. This publication was critical to our effort to clarify our university brand and take it in
a new direction. Based on SDA’s strong portfolio and Diane’s ability to ask the probing questions
necessary to determine where we really wanted to go, she was by far our first choice among all of
the designers. She listened carefully, offered multiple design options and helped to get us to a place
we weren’t even sure we could reach. Her creativity and keen sense of how to convey our changing
identity through a clean, sophisticated design was a critical piece of our entire rebranding project.”
—Patricia McLaughlin, Senior Vice President for Institutional Advancement, Johnson & Wales University
“The more I work with Sawyer Design Associates, the more I appreciate their intelligent approach
to design. SDA truly understands and appreciates the interplay of words and design, and how that
interplay leads to effective communication. Their work is exciting without being hyperactive, it’s
classy without being boring.”
— Allyson Irish, Editor Simmons magazine, and Director College Communications, Simmon College
