Graphic design
Chicago in the 1970s was a crucible of design innovation —and the birthplace of Design Group 3
DG3 was founded on a bold principle: at its core, design is a method of thinking that drives change. And while great design is often simple, its foundation requires clarity of the challenge, an understanding of constraints, and deep empathy for the audience.
From commerce to culture, DG3 relentlessly bridged creativity and connection, pioneering technologies that reinvented conventions and pushed the limits of what was possible—delivering what clients truly needed.
In many ways, the world hasn’t changed much. The ambition behind DG3 remains as vital today as ever—a testament to what design can and should be, now and in the future.
What’s Design Group 3?
Free wisdom:
Let’s make something happen.
Great work begins with great questions.
The best ways to unlock opportunities are constantly evolving.
Find the “it” and so many things fall into place.
Fear is toxic to powerful ideas.
Breakthrough work is a team sport.
