QUESTION. COLLABORATE. CREATE.

After interviewing leadership, partners, and clients, TOKY developed new messaging for the firm, focusing on Christner’s research-based, collaborative culture. The rebrand included a new tagline, identity, and marketing materials.

BIGGER, BETTER IMAGES

The redesigned Christner website introduces the new brand, starting with a Home Page animation that reinforces the firm’s “QUESTION. COLLABORATE. CREATE.” messaging. The site also features noticeably larger images of the firm’s recent architecture projects.
