What Clients Have to Say About Grand Ciel Design.

“When I was searching for someone to create a website for my public relations business, a good friend of mine recommended Kristin. What a great recommendation it was! Since then, I've hired Kristin for several other projects. Kristin is very creative in her approach. She did a superb job at keeping me regularly informed about the project status — both in terms of deadline and budget. One thing I really appreciated about Kristin was her ability to translate technical things that I didn't understand into terms that I made sense. I find her extrememly easy to work with and the outcome is always excellent. Kristin is someone who doesn't settle — she goes above and beyond. I would highly recommend Kristin.”

“I knew immediately upon meeting Kristin that she was an amazing person and someone I wanted to work with on my own design projects as well as bringing her into my client projects. Hiring a designer for my own Logo/Brand Identity project was a big deal, I had never gone through the process for myself before. Kristin was amazing to work with. She listened, cared deeply about my business, offered much insight and ideas to my branding process, shared resources freely and when I as ready helped me move forward with a logo and other brand identity items that I needed.

She created a fabulous logo, which fits me and my business to a tee, it was created through a lot of listening, trying things out and patience as well as a tremendous amount of talent. You can visit my website to see my logo: www.socialnicole.com

I get compliments on this logo every single day and it looks just as stunning online as it does on the business cards she designed and all my other printed material. Working with Kristin was a pleasure, she has a full understanding of how design must work both online and offline, how social media presence needs to be thought of when creating a logo and what elements will make a person's brand truly stand out.

Kristin is also trustworthy, totally accountable, on-time with everything and simply a true pleasure to work with. I now bring Kristin into my client projects on a regular basis and enjoy getting to work with her on the other side of the table. She is amazing and you will LOVE working with her.”

“In starting my practice, I contacted a communications pro and she and I knew we needed a third person for our team and Kristin joined us! What a find she was and continues to be. She assisted with identity, logo, graphics for note cards, note pads, stationary, business cards and then we transitioned to website development. Kristin really stretched and helped develop a visually pleasing, strong, client-centered site that receives rave reviews from spheres of influence, referral sources, clients, and other colleagues.

I strongly recommend working with Kristin Maija Peterson for graphic design, identity, website design & development. She is reliable, provides outstanding results, and is a delight to work with. You won't regret in anyway hiring Kristin!”

“Kristin Maija Peterson did a website and mailer for my husband's company. She went way beyond the call in providing great creative and fast turn-around. She's always upbeat and gives you more than you asked for in a polished, professional image. The materials were a wow!”

— Elizabeth Child & Company, Marketing Communications & Public Relations

“I had the good fortune of working with Kristin Maija Peterson on both some marketing materials for my small business and a website. Kristin was great. She turned out an esthetically pleasing, intuitive, very functional, and effective brochure and website. What I liked best about working with her was her pleasant nature, ability to receive feedback and listen to what I wanted, and most importantly her ability to work with my cavewoman computer skills/knowledge with humor and respect. I would not hesitate to recommend her.”

”I need to tell you how thrilled I am to be presenting this design! I love it when I am pleasantly surprised with the end result.”
