Testimonial

Span's collaboration on The Architecture of Health was extraordinary on numerous fronts. Bud was a thoughtful and insightful listener and communicator. The research and comprehensive preparation he devoted to grounding his design choices and composition were substantial. The thesis, narrative, and essence of the project were given ample dimension and clarity as a result of Bud's exemplary design eye and experience. He notably considered all feedback at every phase and responded with considered solutions that further elevated our book. An unenviably tight schedule, rife with unexpected curves, was managed with rapid turnarounds and laser-focused care. Bud's partnership with color prep and printer meetings was essential to ensure the right elements were requested and in place for proper production and manufacturing. There are few studios I could recommend as confidently as I do Span.

Testimonial

I have worked with Span on multiple exhibitions at the CAC. Bud and his team have consistently been excellent partners, from strong concept development through the final stages of printing and installation. Bud is one of the most talented designers I have worked with, which is augmented by his attentiveness and clear understanding of the needs and direction of each project. The Span team takes feedback with clarity and responsiveness, generally exceeding expectations at each phase of the project. They treat every project with the same level of care and excellence, regardless of size, scope or timeline. Finally, even under stressful conditions, the team keeps the process enjoyable and inspiring. I would highly recommend Bud and his talented, capable team of designers.
