Whether we're working with a large organization or a local mom and pop, each project we take on is rooted in a problem that needs to be solved and understanding those who are impacted by it.
Specializing in design for digital experiences, we aim to create scalable systems and solutions for those we're passing the torch to, as well as ease of use for the ones interacting with the final product.
This is who
we are.
Founded by Brianna Key, Garden Apartment is a small design studio operating out of, well, the garden apartment of a brownstone in Brooklyn.
Whether we're working with a large organization or a local mom and pop, each project we take on is rooted in a problem waiting to be solved and understanding those who are impacted by it.
Specializing in designs for digital experiences, we aim to create scalable systems and solutions for those we're handing off files to, as well as ease of use for anyone interacting with the final product.
We even grow things.
Discover
First we get to know your organization, your goals, and your current challenges. We work with you to determine how we can best support your team to make your vision a reality and create a plan and a timeline.
Design
Once we have a plan in place we get to work on your initial designs. After a round of review, and with your okay, we'll churn out the rest and begin development if that is needed. We'll be sure to always keep you informed along the way.
Deliver
When the project is done we hand off neatly packaged design files. Depending on the services you purchase, we train your team on necessary processes and write up detailed instructions. Don't worry though, we'll always be here if you need anything.
Our process
Web design + development
Whether you need a website designed, developed, or both, we've got you covered. We always design in Figma, but depending on your organization's unique needs, we can build a fully functional site using Wix or Squarespace, or develop a site from the ground up.
Platform implementation + optimization
We often find that organizations use a robust tech stack across departments that could benefit from design and UX to maximize efficacy, but don't have in-house resources to create a cohesive experience across platforms.
We're here to help you make these platforms an extension of your brand that make it easy for your employees and partners to get the job done, and will have your customers coming back for more.
We provide visual design, content audit and organization, and a scalable plan for admins after handoff for the following:
- Content Management Systems
- Learning Management Systems
- Asset Managment Systems
Visual identity + design
No matter where you're at with your brand visually, we'll meet you there. We design logos, color palettes, icons, illustrations and so much more. We're happy to work on retainer, on a project by project basis, or even create templates for your team to work from.
Our services
Brianna has this incredible knack for launching platforms like it's nobody's business. She not only gets the design process but also understands the hustle of meeting deadlines. What I love most is how she crafts designs that not only meet the brand's requirements but also support the project goals.
