Simply put, Lawrence is fantastic. I asked him to design a logo for my solo law practice. I threw around a few vague ideas and he was able to run with those ideas and create a beautiful and professional logo that far exceeded my expectations.
Lawrence has so much creativity in his head, let him unleash some of it on your business/​organization.

Too many people out there call themselves «Graphic Designers» and don’t measure up to the qualities and creativeness that a true Graphic Designer should posses. Lawrence is a knowledgeable and creative thinker who brings ideas and a true eye for design to the table. Working with Lawrence on several print jobs I have been nothing but impressed with his creativity and attention to detail. I highly recommend him for design work for company logo’s, branding, events, and marketing collateral for any business or organization looking to improve and/​or update it’s image and visibility!

Lawrence is not only a talented graphic designer, but he also makes the working experience a joy. Always patient, flexible and a great listener, he repeatedly reworked and refined the vision for my logo until we came up with a design that was better than I could have imagined. My new card is beautiful and conveys exactly the message I was aiming for.

Lawrence McKendell created the posters for a collaborative project between my library and a local transit agency. Because of McKendell’s excellent sense of design, we now have beautiful graphics to convey the library’s new cutting edge service.
McKendell is very good at communicating with you to make sure that everything is perfect and to your liking. He provides great input to give the design that extra something. The Library is very proud to display McKendell’s work and is already considering him for another project.

Lawrence McKendell of McKendell Design is talented and creative desinger. He successfully tackled a multifaceted project that involved taking direction from staff from several different public agencies all at once. He dealt well with last minute changes and was timely in his delivery.
As the concept grew, Lawrence added his own unique insight into the project that produced outstanding results. All three public agencies involved in the project were extremely pleased with the results.
He is a pleasure to work with. He is patient and is able to interpret client needs with very little explanation. His work is crisp, clean, and modern.
The overall reaction to the interior bus ads, desk cards and library poster have been «Wow, those are really neat», and «I love the way the bus looks like it coming right off of the page.»
We look forward to working with him again in the future!

Lawrence McKendell is talented and insightful, and helped us develop our new logo, stationery, and business cards.
Speaking of business cards, they’re a big hit. Never in my life have I heard so much positive feedback when exchanging information; we often hear things like, «Wow, great card!», or «I really like your logo.» Clearly, these accolades are the sign of a job well done.
It was a pleasure to work with Lawrence, and he offered patient guidance as we went through the process of creating our new identity. You can see the final result at
. (Mind you, our current website is simple and not his doing, so the logo is the strongest feature of the page. Perhaps a web overhaul will be the next thing we ask of him.)

Lawrencehas helped me tremedously in all aspects of my advertising. He has seemlessly integrated my personal website, my blog template and my business flyers so that the theme carries through beautifully. He brings thoughtful suggestions to the table and always listens carefully to my ideas. He hasn’t just created a stunning printed page, Lawrence has articulated my very essence and personality in print!

Lawrence Mckendell designed my website
and without a doubt went beyond my expectations. Lawrence is more than a great designer he is someone that has a business sense that will optimize one’s goals for their business through thoughtful web design. He is not afraid to develop and suggest things that haven’t been developed before. I’m working with him on an ongoing basis and would highly recommend Lawrence for any project large or small.
