Info

Landesberg Design is a nine-person graphic design practice involved in the conception, design, and production of print communications, identity programs, exhibits, environmental graphics, signage, websites, and other forms of visual communication. The firm, located in Pittsburgh, was founded in 1982. Our work has been honored by those organizations, publications, and competitions that recognize the highest standards of communication design in the United States: the American Institute of Graphic Arts, Graphis, the New York Art Directors Club, Communication Arts magazine, Print magazine, the Art Directors Club of Los Angeles, the American Association of Museums, the Council for Advancement and Support of Education (CASE), and the Council on Foundations. In 1999, we purchased the headquarters of a local messenger service and converted a dingy cinder block garage into a warm and unexpected design office. The bright space has hints of old and new, merging industrial details with contemporary style. Articles in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette have featured the company and its work. Our work has also recently appeared in the 2005 Communication Arts Design Annual, the 2005 Print Regional Design Annual, the 2004 Graphis Design Annual, and Australia's Desktop magazine. Rick has written for HOW Magazine on why passion matters and making something from nothing. For 14 years we have funded the Landesberg Design Award, awarded annually to a graduating Communication Design senior at Carnegie Mellon University.
