WorkLet’s talk

We’re Karl and Britni.

We make up the core of Wrenbird, a multi-hyphenate creative agency. We make things for people, from a house full of pets, kids and ideas. This is our manifesto.

For ten years we have thrived in spite of our website and lack of social media presence. Our work came from people who knew us, and they sent their friends. We’re grateful for that. Now we want to meet more of you.

So here’s how we work.

01

We’re partners.

Drop us in as your in-house design team, or come to us from your kitchen table with a business you’re just starting. Either way, we work as part of your team.

02

We listen first.

Before we make anything, we want to understand your world: how it runs, what you’re after, what’s been in the way. We want you to leave the first conversation thinking, maybe these folks will actually listen.

03

The planning is the work.

Focusing on where you want to go before driving blindly is kind of the point. We work with you to build a plan and drive the design bus there together.

04

We don’t really do titles.

Some days we’re designers. Some days we’re advisors, sounding boards, or the people setting up the Wi-Fi at your event. We do what the work needs.

05

We show up.

For the Arkansas Folklife Festival, we didn’t design from a desk. We went down and worked it, and we came home with full hearts and new friends.
We want more of that.

06

We tell you the truth.

If we push for an idea, it’s because we think it’s right for you, not because it pays us more.

07

It should feel like you.

People trust us with their stories. Our job is to keep that story true everywhere it goes: the website, the signs, the videos, the posts.

08

We’re in it for the long haul.

Some clients have been with us for twenty years. Some brought us along when they changed jobs. We’d rather grow with you than send an invoice and disappear.

Everything we make is part of something bigger. So are we.

If that sounds like how you want to work, let’s talk.
