Our Founders are an elite team of internationally recognized design firm and branding agency veterans. Either for companies in Dallas or across the nation, we are experienced in building brands and leading creative teams of all sizes.

Don’t just communicate.
Have an effect. 

We are a streamlined Dallas branding agency that offers direct dialogue with the creatives who have their pulse on the work.

Companies can turn to us as a primary creative resource, while agencies can seamlessly integrate Grand Effect as part of a collaborative creative effort to expand their team per project.

Small team.
Grand reach.

Our partners, Philip Smith and Garrett Owen, are the core of our Dallas branding agency. Although they lead creative on all projects, we amplify our team using our creative network of carefully curated top talent from across the nation. Our Grand Effect network, versus a traditional employee structure, keeps costs efficient, yielding magnified results with lasting impact.

Let’s create a conversation piece, not wallpaper.

Branding and design agencies will often be built around a particular visual style or trend based on their employees.

We aren’t one of them.

We don’t believe in having an agency style, because every project and company is different.

To produce original and distinctive branding work, we make it a priority to select a unique group of creatives for each project, all with different backgrounds and creative skill sets.
