To our clients, partners, vendors, family & friends:

We appreciate you! This past year has been a challenging one for all, and with your continued support and trust, we certainly made the best of it. Technology has played a pivotal role in keeping us all connected - from Microsoft Teams & Zoom meetings where someone undoubtedly forgets to unmute themselves, turn off their camera while having a snack, or has a kid / barking dogs wandering around in the background, to leveraging new platforms for virtual ideation sessions, to praying your home internet doesn't disconnect in the middle of a presentation - it's been quite a year! However, it hasn't dampened our holiday spirit.

From us to you... here's to a cheerful holiday and a fresh 2021!

Congratulations to SmartShape Design’s Patrick Brown, Director - Design & User Experience, on 6 years of dedicated service!

Pat began his SmartShape career in 2014 bringing to our team more than 30 years’ experience in new product design. A leader with swift critical thinking skills, Pat applies his skill set of expertise in concept ideation & development, refinement and to production engineering. Pat’s good natured sense of humor makes for lots of laughs around the studio.

When the Ohio weather allows, Pat enjoys zooming around town on one of his motorcycles – usually his favorite, the BMW. He also enjoys long runs in his neighborhood with one of his 3 dogs Sprout, Fig and Willow.
