Originally a concept by Doug Peters, Symbiosys evolved into the Symbiotic Design Group™ and has since grown to become Symbiotic Design™. However, the original Team Symbiosys™ concept has endured and continues to grow. Team Symbiosys™ is a collaborative team of freelance artists, designers and developers working in symbiosis to achieve a central symbiotic theme for professional and corporate public identity and image packages through a diversified pool of exciting talent and styles.
Symbiotic Design™ appreciates and incorporates individualism through team collaboration for effective designs for the web, interactive multimedia, software and print.
Business marketing is not an answer, it is a mandatory strategy for business growth and survival. These days, growth is survival. We think a business deserves more than answers, it requires results.
We know that art can change the world through effective design, composition and implementation. To effect that cause Symbiotic Design™ incorporates the latest technologies by using the Team Symbiosys™ freelance pool on a variety of platforms using assorted techniques as required per each unique goal. What this means to you is cross browser friendly design and cross platform development. This is what the internet is all about. Symbiotic Design™ can take advantage of the unique capabilities of each platform to deliver product and services as required via Team Symbiosys™ with the most effective and efficient delivery possible.
Why then is Symbiotic Design™ currently the most competitively priced US-based professional new media design studio on the internet? There are several good reasons:
- We are hungry. We are and always will be hungry for challenging work.
- We are creative professionals who love what we do. This alone is worth a premium at other studios.
- We charge fairly on a flat rate basis. Even all quotes are based on reasonable flat rates. And our fair rate pricing strategy is dictated by and documented through the Graphic Artists Guild Handbook: Pricing & Ethical Guidelines at lower rates than other studios charge.
- Symbiotic Design™ does not charge for conceptualization or presentation. If you do not like our presentation(s) you may walk away from any prospective deal with us without ever paying us a dime.
- Symbiotic Design™ will never charge for our own mistakes. If we have to do something, anything, over again and it's our fault, we will do it over for free without any charge.
- Symbiotic Design™ offers complete satisfaction guarantees for most of it's creative design packages and all of it's supporting technical services.
- Symbiotic Design™ helps to protect your intellectual properties by offering complete professional and corporate patentable identity packages which guarantee our clientele that the logos we design and develop for them are unique and patentable. Additionally, our patentable logo creations are also guaranteed to withstand any legal identity challenge for a period of ten years. This means that if any logo we design for a client through our patentable identity package plan is not patentable or is reasonably disputed, we will create a new logo to replace the original challenged logo at no cost to our client.
- We also support our premium graphic design work on any platform and in any format required, even if it isn't invented yet, for a period of ten years. This means that if a new image format comes along which requires you to convert your images to, we will render the images to the required format from the original masters up to ten years from the date of sale completion.
- We itemize and add our one-time incurred superficial expenses (i.e.: special fonts or software) instead of figuring the maximum allowance and adding that figure to each client's bill as others do. This saves our clientele considerable expense in the final bill.
- Travel incurred by Symbiotic Design™ or a Team Symbiosys™ member is controlled directly by the prospective client. Out of the area traveling expenses such as transportation, accommodations and dinning are payed directly by the client. This allows us to offer our official professional visual presentation to your professional company or corporate board of directors for free without any obligation or expense to us. In turn, this assures client satisfaction while allowing them to control and suit this budget to their needs. This also facilitates our international impact with a global personal presence.
Obviously, the above reasons make us a wise choice as well as an affordable solution for all of your design challenges. And there are many more reasons as well. Take a look through our web site and witness our work and versatility in design solutions.
Symbiotic Design™ maintains creative freedom in all it does. An artsy-craftsy flower logo may be what you might prefer, but if your consuming demographic target is 13-24 year-olds, you need an upbeat logo unless you are selling plants or flowers. This does not mean the flower logo is out, for we pay strict attention to our clientele's vision. In fact, we pride ourselves in maintaining strict interpretation of our clientele's specifications for any particular problem. However, we may not accept assignments to accomplish the visually drab with which any old design studio can accomplish. We reserve the right to bow out of any project until we have accepted a retainer for an approved working concept. We maintain creative freedom to protect our reputation, and therefore we will not sell garbage. If for any reason Symbiotic Design™ cannot help you meet your design problem or requirement, we will issue recommendations for competing design studios. This really only occurs when we don't consider a project challenging enough. Still, this does not occur too often. As I have mentioned, we are hungry.
Symbiotic Design™ maintains creative direction for Team Symbiosys™ by managing projects and assignments, by maintaining creative direction and focus, and by enforcing goals and deadlines.
Team Symbiosys™ also promotes successful artists, animators, designers, developers, illustrators and videographers.
Symbiotic Design™ is also proud to offer complete and affordable professional web hosting services. While this technical service has been incorporated to support our global image and public profile packages, the professionalism, quality, features, speed and reliability of our hosting plans offer uncompromised value and are available to anyone who will adhere to our reasonable and sensible policies.

The Symbiosys Design Team is not computer platform specific and currently hosts Amiga, Macintosh and Pentium based freelance designers and developers on several different operating systems. Variety is encouraged to take advantage of the unique capabilities of each platform OS and their native tools. If you are a professional quality artist, animator, designer, developer, illustrator, typographer or videographer and are looking for an outlet, contact .
This is the internet, geographic location is not an issue, though not all work is either web or internet specific.
