Deka Design solves your visual communication problems.
Dmitry Krasny started working as Deka Design in 2001. The vision was simple: to establish a true multi-disciplinary design studio that crafts compelling visual solutions across a wide spectrum of needs.
We help you strategize, develop, and implement innovative solutions for print and interactive media. We design for you, a diverse clientele and your target audience, not other designers.

Forming close partnerships with great clients is key to providing highly relevant, custom solutions for your visual communications needs. We ask a lot of questions before taking on any project.
Every client, every project, and therefore, every solution is unique. No templates here.

We consider every detail; information hierarchy, typography, color palette, image style, "voice" or tone of the piece, etc, etc., etc.. Ultimately, it's always about the content - the message.
Nothing is left to chance, everything is deliberate, everything is by DESIGN.
