From Sketch to Scale

In 15 years of Dotgraf, we’ve been the trusted branding partner for more than 20 startups, helping them ignite their ideas to the world with impact, with a 90% success rate. Our client-centric approach and passion for solving problems have been the driving force behind our success. Steve Jobs used to say that the only way to do great work is to love what you do. That ‘s so true.

After each initial meeting with a startup, we leave the conference room with a surge of creative energy that propels us into the new project. We love the challenge of crafting a brand that resonates with the target audience and helps the startup achieve its goals.

Creativity is at the heart of what we do, and our design process is centered around fostering this creative energy. This process allows us to experiment, communicate our ideas clearly, and better understand our clients’ needs. We believe that evolving the client/ creative relationship into a collaborative process, is the key factor.

Our portfolio showcases our commitment to world-class design, and we’re always thrilled to see our clients achieve their branding goals. For example, let’s check two brands we’ve helped create:

Porto Design Studio
Catharanthus Lab Logo


Catharanthus Lab, an investigation project lab working to transform and synthesize the catharanthus flower into future cancer medicines. The logo shows the plant’s flower morphing itself into hexagons from its own chemical formula. It’s pure poetry combined into a clear readable logo.

Raconteur Animation


Raconteur Animation is based in Austin, Texas. Their mission is to ensure that world-changing technology is not overlooked because it’s difficult to understand. Their animations have helped Facebook Connectivity, ULC Robotics, Kai Systems, Solarlytics and other corporations and startups with breakthrough technology. We wanted the R to tell its story. An illustrated R where the company’s action areas such as technology, future, path and objectives were present.

With our proven track record and passion for creative problem-solving, Dotgraf is the ideal partner for startups seeking to make a lasting impact. We are more than just designers; we are storytellers, designing brand narratives that resonate with audiences and propel businesses forward. Let us help you unleash the power of your brand and achieve your goals.
