DESIGN AS A SERVICE — NEW YORK

Design Services in New York:
Your Dedicated Creative Team

TDS serves New York businesses with a dedicated, senior creative team on a flat monthly subscription — brand identity, web development, video, photography, and strategy at a fraction of the cost of building in-house in NYC. No lock-in contracts.

WHY TDS FOR NEW YORK

Why New York businesses choose TDS?

🗽
NYC Cost Efficiency

A senior in-house creative team in New York costs $400,000–$800,000/year in salaries and benefits. TDS delivers equivalent capability for a flat monthly subscription — at a fraction of the cost.

🎨
Creative Director on Every Brief

Every brief is reviewed by a named senior Creative Director before production begins. Not a coordinator. Not a project manager. A CD who understands your brand and challenges every creative decision.

Work While NYC Sleeps

TDS's dual-studio model spans Sydney and Saigon. Briefs submitted at the close of your New York business day are in active production during the Asia-Pacific business hours — delivered for your morning review.

📷
Photography Included

Unlike most design subscriptions, TDS includes photography — product, brand, lifestyle, and corporate — within Scale and Custom plans. One vendor, one fee, complete creative output.

🔓
No Annual Lock-In

TDS operates month-to-month. No 12-month commitment, no penalty for pausing, no risk. Most New York design agency retainers lock you in for 12 months minimum.

🌐
Global Standard, NYC Results

TDS has delivered brand, web, and campaign work for clients across three continents. New York businesses get globally-informed creative thinking, not a local design shop.
