Maria Krause Design is a one-woman design firm that offers clients big-time design solutions without the big office, big management or the big bill. But don't mistake this for a small-time shop – after 20 years in some of the area's largest corporations and smallest agencies, there is some serious experience behind the name.

At MKD, you get creative, realistic, client-focused work. Every day. Since the designer, production manager and account executive are all one person, there's nobody to pass the buck to. You'll always get my best work because I'm the only one that answers to you.

And if I can't do it, I'll tell you. But that doesn't happen very often. A trusted network of printers, photographers, illustrators, and IT uber-geeks make this small office function like one of the big boys.
