Knowledge. Craftsmanship. Mindfulness.

Atomic Quill Design combines a deep appreciation for the history and theory of graphic communication with a dedication to thoughtful creativity articulated through the appropriate technology, be it cutting-edge or old school. We have eclectic, curious minds that relish challenges and delight in the unexpected. Some of our heroes are:

• Mies van der Rohe: less really is more most of the time
• Irvin Yalom: the great existential psychiatrist with the sage couch
• Julia Child: serious cooking rendered serious fun
• e.e. cummings: small gestures, giant reverberations
• Tom Jobim, Vinicius de Moraes, Walter Wanderley: The Holy Trinity of Bossa Nova
• Morris Lapidus: Eden Roc and the Fountainbleu make Miami Miami
• Massimo Vignelli: the Zen master of maximizing the minimum
• Sarah Vaughn: smoke gets in your soul
• Carl Sagan: the wonder of astronomy made wonderful
