Dowski Designs was able to bring my vision to life. I was unsure of what I wanted it to look like, but Brandon was able to quickly develop a few concepts which helped make everything clearer. His vision and creativity allows him to get the results you want and I am very satisfied with the work he has done for my brand. Brandon has plenty of experience in the design field, and his work ethic, approachability and energy are unmatched. If you are on the fence deciding if Brandon is a right fit I would highly recommend you go with it - you will not be disappointed with the results!

In 2021, as part of a Visioning exercise, the Oakville Wind Orchestra felt the need to update and revamp our website. For this endeavour we retained the services of Brandon and Dowski Design. They listened to our needs, made suggestions and developed a website which was modern and user friendly. During the design and implementation, they made all their deadlines and deliverables and were easy to work with. As a not-for-profit, they were also able to support our budget. We do not hesitate in giving Dowski Designs a total recommendation. #oakvillewindorchestra #dowskidesigns

If you want to stand out from the competition in the heavily saturated consulting market (or any market), you need to communicate effectively in text and image. That's why I entrusted Brandon and his business, Dowski Designs, to become my principal designer when I started my own advisory firm – a decision I have not regretted for a single second. Brandon has been responsible for all facets of my visual communication portfolio – from the design of the company logo, website, marketing collateral to infographics for presentations. His creativity and turnaround time are unparalleled, and I particularly value his stellar commitment to client confidentiality. Brandon and his wide range of services come highly recommended!
