Communications and creative direction for organizations that need the work to make sense.

Frances Eugenia Design helps public agencies, nonprofits, cultural organizations, and mission-driven teams organize the way they communicate.

The work includes public messaging, editorial direction, department design, newsletters, publication systems, campaign materials, event collateral, and the practical tools teams need when the work has become too scattered to manage cleanly.

This is design with judgment behind it — built for real organizations, real deadlines, and public-facing work that has to be understood, used, and remembered.

Selected Work

Public-facing work has to do more than look finished.

It has to hold information, carry decisions, respect the audience, and survive the conditions around it.

This selected work includes municipal communications, publication design, festival campaigns, newsletters, public engagement materials, exhibition design, websites, book design, and visual systems for organizations with real audiences and real deadlines.

The studio

Frances Eugenia Design works where communication, design, and operations meet.

The studio helps organizations explain what they are doing, organize the materials around it, and create public-facing work people can actually use.

That may include a newsletter, a campaign, a publication, a public update, a department model, or the internal tools needed to keep the work from starting over every time.

Hablamos Español. Disponible para proyectos en inglés y español.

I very much appreciated your work as a designer and a communicator. In all my years here, I’ve never been so well informed. Plus the transformation of the old fuddy duddy focus mag was amazing! 🙏💕

I want to commend the communications team for revamping the design and content of this weekly newsletter. It's much more pleasant to read on desktop and mobile and contains more than just advertisements for fitness classes. Thank you!

That last email breaking down the charter amendments is fantastic. I can’t speak fully to content (I skimmed) but wanted to extend a congrats to the layout and explanation it contains. Thank you!

During my search for a design firm to help me design a logo and create a website for my new business, I was fortunate to find Frances Eugenia Design. After sharing the services and expertise that my new business was capable of providing and the obvious need for a logo and website to make it visible, Frances began the design and creation process, which resulted in a logo and website well above my expectations, and which now identifies my company.
I would highly recommend Frances Eugenia Design for creativity and professionalism for any design needs.
