vancouver design portfolio

Welcome to Tangram

We are located in Vancouver, Canada. - gateway to the East (or West depending on the direction you're traveling), outdoor capital of North America, cultural mosaic, and home of the 2010 Winter Olympic Games. These attributes are quickly positioning Vancouver as a hub of culture, technology and commerce -an ideal location for design innovation.

Tangram strives to develop brands and products that bridge the gap between users and technology, creating the compelling and memorable experiences that drive brand loyalty. We zero in on opportunities for innovation by carefully analyzing our clients' customers, market position, technologies, and long term goals. We then work with our clients to translate this information into a design strategy.

In the end, our work reflects the result of a strategic balance of business, science, and art.
