1. What is Narrative Designs?

Narrative Designs is a creative planning and design studio that focuses on urban planning, placemaking, and storytelling to help communities strengthen their sense of identity. In addition, I create and sell custom neighborhood flags, maps, and prints that celebrate local character.

2. What consulting services do you provide?

I focus on three main areas:

• Visual Storytelling – turning data, history, and culture into engaging visuals.

• Place-Based Planning and Design – strategies and designs rooted in a community’s unique character.

• Demonstration Projects – creative, implementable projects that show what’s possible in a place.

3. Who do you typically work with?

I collaborate with cities, nonprofits, community organizations, and businesses that want to strengthen identity, spark connection, and bring people together through placemaking and storytelling.

4. Do you only work in Denver?

No. While many of my projects begin in Denver, I design and consult with communities anywhere in the U.S and Canada.

5. Why focus on placemaking and storytelling?

Places are more than physical spaces—they carry stories, history, and identity. By focusing on storytelling, placemaking, and design, I help communities create a stronger sense of belonging and connection.

6. Can you design custom flags or maps for communities?

Yes. Flags and maps are a powerful way to visually represent identity. I design custom flags, maps, and prints for families, neighborhoods, and organizations, blending personal stories with strong, timeless design.

7. Where can I buy your flags or map prints?

My collections, such as Flags of Denver and Community Cartography, are available directly through my store.

8. How long does a custom design project take?

Most design projects take 3–6 weeks, depending on the scope and complexity.

9. Can Narrative Designs help with events or public art projects?

Yes. I design public installations, interactive displays, and creative community projects that help people connect with place in new and meaningful ways.
