Friend & Fort was created to highlight and strengthen the relationships people have with products, services, and each other through strategic branding & digital design.

Imagining Beyond

As children, the Fort is where our dreams would run wild. A space full of endless possibility. Eventually, we would believe in our ideas so deeply, they became real.

Today, our design approach follows a similar ethos. We partner closely with you and your team to explore what’s possible, and to push beyond.

Through collaboration, positioning, and imagination, we deliver creative solutions that delight.

Dreams are better achieved with Friends.

Some kind words from good people.

"We collaborated on an IP refresh that many people here hold passionate opinions about and could have been a mess. However, I couldn’t be happier with how we came together and threaded that needle, presenting a fresh look at a classic brand and really making these games shine.

It’s been an absolute pleasure working with Friend & Fort and we couldn’t be happier with the final product."

David Blanchard

Director, The Op Games

“Thank you Friend & Fort team for the fantastic website design! They’ve made the entire process so easy, from conceptualizing and organizing the site layout, offering thoughtful branded focused design options and making sure the final execution and launch of the site was painless.

The website is on brand, is so easy to maintain and really meets the unique needs of our ever changing business. We get compliments all of the time. Thank you!”
