It seems that designing for your own firm is harder than you think! After unarchiving images, writing copy and thumb wrestling to decide final layout design and color choices, we bring you our new (and hopefully improved) site. Phew! You can take a look around, see if you find anything you like. Please contact us if you have a question or need creative assistance. Its fall in the Northwest and the days are growing shorter which means more time to tinker in the studio.</p>

<p>A few years back Parker Design House was chosen to be the design team for the Parks and Green Spaces Levy. Since that time we have helped get the word out about the many neighborhood projects financed by Levy dollars. We have been busy creating signage, collateral and email communications about all sorts of Levy initiatives. Parks has become an active participant in economic development and sustainability strategies that help position Seattle as a regional, state, and global leader in the 21st century. We are half way through the Levy and have added over 8 acres to the park system and completed 32 development projects. Let&#8217;s hear it for more green spaces! To find out if there is a project in your neighborhood go to <a href="http://www.seattle.gov/parks/levy/" target="_blank">www.seattle.gov/parks/levy/</a>and click on the map in the righthand sidebar!</p>
