Highline represents more than our inspiring geographic location in the far Northwest of Montana. Design often begins with a line which, when joined with other lines, creates shape, form, and meaning. Design is often simply a collection of humble lines elevated to a higher cause.
Higher potential
Not all design is created equally. Our creatives hold advanced degrees in their fields and strive to constantly produce a highly effective, innovative, award-winning product.
Higher purpose
Design and marketing are powerful tools, that, for better or worse are able to affect human behavior. At Highline, we strive to use our powers for good. We stand for human rights, wilderness conservation, and community development. By accepting projects that align with our company ideals, and working with local nonprofits as often as we can, we hope to use design for a higher purpose.

Our Process
Brand Strategy
After a stakeholder meeting to gain a clear understanding of your business, we do our research and let you know how you can achieve your branding and marketing goals. Sometimes that means heading out into uncharted territories and exploring solutions you may have never considered. It always means standing out from your competitors and connecting emotionally with your desired audience and building a relationship between them and your brand.
Brand Design + Identity
Starting with your logo, we build out a full brand that speaks to your audience in the right way. This means colors, textures, typography, additional graphic elements, language, photo style, patterns, and the rest of the kitchen sink. We’re clever, we’re good communicators, we’re great designers by any measure, and you can hang your hat on that. Let’s engage people and look good doing it.
Execution
Once your deliverables are outlined, we work to design and develop or broker printing to bring your brand to life. We’re an in-house web development agency and proud print nerds.
Happy Ever After
We’re not going anywhere. As your business and brand grows, we’ll be here to keep making magic with you. We can keep an eye on your website and help out with marketing as needed.
