Award-winning Ema Design Marks 25th Anniversary
Ema Design Inc., an award-winning Denver-based graphic design firm with clients nationwide, celebrates its 25th year in business this month.
Denver, CO (PRWEB) June 20, 2007 -- Ema Design Inc., an award-winning Denver-based graphic design firm with clients nationwide, celebrates its 25th year in business this month. To announce this landmark anniversary, founder Thomas Ema created a new "25" logo and special anniversary mailer, and added an historical timeline to www.emadesign.com, featuring 16 groundbreaking projects he has designed over his 25-year career.
Ema, a graduate of the Kansas City Art Institute with a Bachelor's of Fine Art/Design, established Ema Design in 1982. The company creates identity, print, signage, public art and new media designs for a wide variety of clients. Past clients have included the Adolph Coors Company, Hewlett-Packard, Swedish Medical Center and the Downtown Denver Partnership. His recent work includes extensive signage and wayfinding projects for the Denver Pavilions, Maggiano's Little Italy, the Denver Botanic Gardens, the Denver Botanic Gardens at Chatfield and others.
In response to Ema Design's milestone achievement, internationally renowned Swiss designer Fritz Gottschalk, proclaimed, "Wow. Twenty five years of practicing design. Practicing design at the highest possible level." Fritz continued, "As the world is becoming more and more inundated with clutter, firms like yours are deservingly sticking out and are being noticed more and more for the quality of work."
"Having grown up in Williamsburg, Virginia, I have a deep appreciation for history and enduring quality," states Thomas Ema. Ema believes the secret to creating great work is, "You have to listen to your clients needs with one ear. With the other ear you have to listen to your own heart."
