The Determined is a design strategy and creative consulting studio. We support those taking climate action.

We make climate-focused projects look good, sound awesome, be seen, and get the support they need.

We’re not your typical creative studio.

Since 2016, we’ve focused our years of creative experience towards the climate space. We understand climate-speak, but more importantly, we know how to translate that speak to develop brands, campaigns, products, and services so that your audience does what you want them to do; sign the petition, fund your company, download the app, support your cause, buy the thing, etc.

You’re not our typical client.

You consider yourself a misfit, a rebel, someone with a Determined Mindset brave enough to stand for something you believe in, willing to take on our climate crisis full-throttle.

Our clients are:
+ Climate startups
+ Companies (big & small)
+ Foundations
+ Entrepreneurs
+ Nonprofits
+ Accelerators
+ Universities

We work hard. We work virtually.

With the pandemic in mind, we work beyond the limitations of geography. We are able to invite the right people on a project no matter where they live, giving us access to a wider pool of climate designers and industry experts, all while reducing our carbon footprint.

We’ve poured all of our lessons learned over the years into blogs, podcasts, and PDFs. Check out some of our resources we created for entrepreneurs and leaders within the climate space. 

And let’s be clear…

The Determined supports all of our clients/friends in the work they do.

We believe that those working on humanity’s greatest challenge should get the best creative support needed in order for their work to have the biggest impact.

If the work of scientists fails because of lame branding, poor messaging, or lack of marketing, then we all fail.

Onward.

Jam with us on the gram.
