Pentagram

Pentagram as a studio

Pentagram's record lists a 250 to 999 person partnership founded in 1972, headquartered in Austin with offices in New York and London, and a service mix of branding 20 percent, graphic design 20 percent and web design 20 percent, a 60 percent design share with no UX/UI or product line. Industries are spread evenly across media, B2B services, consumer, fintech and government at 20 percent each. The listed pricing, $50 to $99 per hour with a $5,000+ minimum, is not credible for this profile. There is no Clutch rating or review on record.

Who it fits

Hire Pentagram when the brief is identity and graphic design at the highest level and you accept that the record here gives no pricing you can rely on and no reviews. It is the most branding-and-graphic-weighted large studio in this directory. It does not list product or interface design, so it is not where a software team goes for app UX.

Strengths

• Branding and graphic design at 20 percent each are the core, with web design as the digital expression

Watch-outs

• No Clutch rating or reviews on record; listed rates of $50 to $99 per hour should be disregarded
