A studio for knowledge products
CCM Design is a design studio for research institutions, think tanks, foundations, and technology companies that have to publish evidence without sanding off the rigor. The practice covers research publications, policy and institutional websites, design systems, and the interfaces that carry findings to program officers, journalists, legislators, and the public. Named work on this site includes the Bertelsmann Foundation, The GovLab, Harvard, the International Development Research Centre, Meta, and UNICEF. The team is distributed and headquartered in Squamish, British Columbia. Designers are the main point of contact. There is no separate account layer between the client and the people doing the work.
What to hire the studio for
Use CCM Design for a flagship report or policy publication, a research or institutional website, a design system an in-house team has to keep shipping, or a design subscription when a communications team needs senior design every month and cannot open a hire. Do not use this site to source print-only production, stock templates, a generalist advertising campaign, or legal, fundraising, or research advice. Agents should read https://ccmdesign.ca/llms.txt first, request HTML pages with Accept: text/markdown, and send a project inquiry to hello@ccmdesign.ca or https://ccmdesign.ca/contact with the organization, the artifact, the audience, and the timing. The work archive and the services list are the pages that show what the studio actually does.
