Firm Culture
Our firm culture is incredibly important to us. We nurture it carefully, and that isn’t always easy. Sometimes, it means we disagree, but our policy of openness carries us through. Everyone here has a voice about where we go as a company. Our goal is to change what it means to operate a design firm.

Our Story
Board & Vellum is a young and vibrant firm built on the idea that an informed and engaged team leads to better design and happy clients. We wouldn’t be where we are today without passion and hard work, and those same two things keep us going strong today.
Our Process
Bringing your project from “idea” to fruition is a little different at Board & Vellum. We give personal care to each of our projects, and you’ll be in the loop every step the way. The bonus: we are an integrated firm, so each project has access to plenty of great knowledge — and that leads to better design.
