In 2008, David Wingard left the big agency world to start a one-man design studio. New clients started calling. He kept answering. Others joined the team, bringing their ideas, experiences, skills, solutions, and perspectives. Along the way, “he” became “we.” And here we are.

Twelve years later, Wingard remains one of Northeast Florida’s leading design and communications firms. We have been recognized for our work, as well as our commitment to giving back to the Northeast Florida community.
