Over the past 20 years, what I do has been called different things: editorial design, narrative design, content marketing, and, most recently, “brand storytelling.” But how I do my work has been constant: research, ideate, and collaborate with writers, illustrators, and photographers, to create work that communicates with a targeted audience."
—KELLY McMURRAY, CREATIVE DIRECTOR
In the 2communiqué team, I have the best creative partnership of my career. While Kelly’s design aesthetic is what initially drew me, it is the strategic partnership with the whole team that has made me a long-term client. In every project—print, digital, or hybrid—I appreciate the strategic thinking, practical decision making, meticulous project management, and the predisposition to find humor when needed most. I’m especially proud of the suite of admission materials we’ve just completed. They do the kind of smart, intuitive, efficient work that has earned my trust.
—HEATHER SULLIVAN, DIRECTOR OF COMMUNICATIONS NOBLE AND GREENOUGH SCHOOLWorking with Kelly McMurray and her team at 2communiqué on our rebranding effort a was fantastic experience. The identity they developed for CMES captures the spirit and strength of the center better than we could have hoped. From our website to our printed newsletter, each piece they work on is just gorgeous!”

—MARGOT GRISAR, DESIGN DIRECTOR, TUFTS UNIVERSITY PUBLICATIONS2COMMUNIQUÉ took the time to fully understand our needs and the needs of our readers. As a result, they nailed the redesign of Inside Counsel on the first round.”
—ROBERT VOSPER, EDITOR, INSIDE COUNSEL2communiqué asks great questions, brings energy and imagination to the process, and pays attention to the content of the stories. That last piece is most important to me. Many designers can make a page look great, but few can make the words, images, color, and typography work together to make a piece stronger. They do that every time.”
