In short, we think big for people who think big.
Regardless of the style of the client, our same approach and principles apply. We make considered, relevant and long-lasting brands for visionaries of all varieties.

OMFGCO exists to find a better way.

Every Decision
is a brand decision

With a strong foundation, we can build (practically) anything.

We can do a ton of things, but these are the places we shine:

Strategy & Positioning
Naming & Branding
Environments & Interiors
Logo & Visual Identity
Copywriting & Brand Voice
Packaging & Collateral
Caring & Getting People to Care
Digital Design & Development
Consultation, Speaking & Other Engagements

Our
secret
sauce

We might seem a little rough around the edges, but we know who we are. These are our core values:

Best Idea Wins.

We champion an idea meritocracy—a good idea can come from anyone. Even you.

Stay Outside.

We approach our work with more questions than answers. By starting with a “beginner’s mind,” we can clear the noise and get to the root of what matters.

Water the Plants.

Regardless of our titles, our job descriptions are simple: make everyone else’s lives easier. How can we help?

Everything is an Opportunity.

Limitations, speed bumps, and course changes are going to be a part of every job. We can either complain, or we can take it to the next level. The choice is ours.

Apparently, lots of people do. Here’s proof:

What’s your project/brand/idea/thing?
What’s your overall budget? (And how much of that is dedicated to branding?)
When does it need to be live?

Dear OMFGCO,

Free mail

Thanks,

Hi and thanks for reaching out!

It’s an honor that you would want to work with us. However, you should know that it’s rare that OMFGCO hires new staff. The good news is that we freelance people often, so we will keep your portfolio on hand and reach out when the time is right. Until then, keep fighting the good fight.

Your Branding Studio,
OMFGCO

TOO BAD.

Try working for us instead.

So, what exactly do you guys do?
Do you guys do Interior Design and Environmental Design?
Do you do digital design as well?
Do you mainly focus on cannabis branding?
Do you mainly focus on hospitality design (like hotels and restaurants)?
Where are you guys located?
Where do you find inspiration?
Do you do Consultation?
Do you do Bar Mitzvahs?
Who built this amazing website platform?

Wait! I’ve still got a question!

We are a branding studio first and foremost, so everything we do is done from a branding perspective. More specifically, we focus on Naming and Positioning, Visual Identity, Brand Voice, Interior Design, Package Design, and Consultation. There are many things that fall into these catagories, so if you think you have a job for us, let’s talk!

Yes we do. We prefer to bring a brand experience into as many parts of a brand as possible, and Interior Design is a great way to do that.

Yes we do. We do basic front end design for sites, but we do not do any development in house. We typically partner with an outside digital agency to really make ideas come to life.

No, but we love branding for the cannabis industry. We absolutely will do branding in the cannabis space, but we are not exclusively a cannabis branding agency.

No! We are industry agnostic. We have done plenty of branding and interior design for many well-known hotels and restaurants, but we offer our branding and interiors services for any industry.

Our studio is located in lovely Portland, Oregon. We love it here.

It's all around us. All you have to do is see it. Or feel it. (Or both.)

You bet. Sometimes a good consultation session can do wonders for a brand, and it’s a great first step in figuring out what you really need.

Well, we haven’t yet, but it’s possible.

The wonderful folks at Human Shapes help us with the development and maintenance of our site. Please give them all of your money.
