Several ground level design clients must strike a balance between the expense of ongoing design needs and maintaining profitability in this economic downturn. In an effort to better accommodate these clients, new flat fee retainer options are being made available that effectively reduce our per-project based design rates by 25%! A great savings! Contact me for more information!

Hello and thanks for visiting. Established in the spring of 1993 and based in Franklin, Tennessee, ground level design is beginning its 17th year of offering creative vision and unique design solutions to a wide variety of clientele. ground level does it all…brand identity, tour merchandising, promotional tools, publication design, retail packaging design, and more. Check out the gallery for some of the latest projects. I think it provides a good glimpse at the diversity and quality of work - you may even recognize some of the clients.

My name is Bert Sumner. I design, art direct, feed Abbey the faithful studio pup, respond to emails, maintain the computers, answer the phone, update this blog, and empty the wastebaskets - and I’d love to talk to you about your next design project.
