OUR MISSION

On a more personal note, here's what we're all about

As creators and marketers, our dedication, creativity and expertise are the driving forces behind all of our projects. Every day, we come to work and put our best step forward for our clients.

Our team’s expertise has grown over the past 16 years, and as a company, we’ve made it part of our mission to give back as much as we can, with our time and knowledge. We’re committed to teaching, collaborating, and inspiring individuals, in order to offer them the tools and perspective they may need to succeed.

Giving back is at the heart of who we are, not only as a team but also as individuals. Being a global team, we make sure to expand our philosophy and spread our philanthropy efforts across the world. On many occasions, our devoted clients also take part in our efforts and are proud to join us as collaborators.

“Happiness doesn’t result from what we get, but from what we give.”

Ben Carson

Breaking the 150
Docuseries
Montreal

This is one of Design Shopp’s personal projects: a new docuseries in-the-making, highlighting community heroes, often the ones not seen or heard of, who make a genuine difference in people’s lives. We’re currently working on our pilot episode, recently filmed on the South Side of Chicago.

Student Mentoring and Career Workshops
John Abbott College

Our vice president, Melissa, teaches design seminars and career workshops to future graduates from design, marketing and web programs. These workshops are designed to prepare students for their interviews, the workforce, or starting a new business. Her experience being a young entrepreneur when she co-founded Design Shopp, with no business experience and very little mentoring, has been an important inspiration for these workshops.
