Design, redesigned to tip the scales.

Counterweight™ is led by Founder & Creative Director, Brennan Gilbert. After a decade of working with marketing teams and venture-backed startups, Brennan saw a gap between what modern teams need and their less-than-ideal options.

Counterweight™ is our answer: an independent design studio that offsets creative work with clarity, speed, and expert-level care, at a fair price. No fluff, no friction – just great work, done right.

Here's why brands love to work with us:

Are you ready for a better way to design?

It’s not you, it’s them: unreliable freelancers, bloated agencies, inconsistent self-service tools, unaffordable full-time hires. Ugh.

Counterweight™ design studio was built to counter all that. And getting started is painless.
