About The Hedge

In the words of Dr. Maya Angelou, Design Hedge infuses “passion, compassion, some humor, and some style” into all its work. The brainchild of founder and Art Director, Christopher Higgins, Design Hedge sought to fill the space the design industry lacked, originality and innovation. However, don’t let the vivid colors and dazzling images fool you baby, we mean business. Our roots run deep in brand design, ever watered by the sweat of dedication and talent sustained by our team of incomparable designers and creatives. We’re a once-in-a-lifetime business, with quality of work in equal measure. Release the boundaries of your creativity and grow, with Design Hedge.
