Why choose Blend?
So, what makes us so unique? The real question is: how can we help guide you through your complex web and content problems?
WE EMBRACE CHALLENGE
It doesn’t matter how complex your design or implementation project is. You’ll leave with a sense of order and understanding.
WE’RE ON YOUR TEAM
There’s no need to worry about communication problems: we work best when we’re part of a cohesive team — either alongside a marketing partner or serving as integration lead, internal or distributed.
WE’RE ADVOCATES FROM START TO FINISH
Above everything, we advocate for you and your audiences. We help make decisions that lead to sustainable, maintainable, and user-focused web projects.
Featured work.
Our goal — with every project — is to make YOUR goals easier to achieve.

A company like Icertis, which provides a contract lifecycle management solution used by some of the world's largest enterprises, needs to appeal to a wide range of potential customers. Blend built a design system to allow for better clarity and easier communication.
A Progressive Trade Show App that Connected Without Connectivity
Using Umbraco Heartcore, Blend helped Raven Industries create a trade show application that allowed for easy editorial access while being completely internet-free under the trade show tent.
