acorndesign: backstory
As founder of acorndesign, Margaret Chaves brings nearly 20 years experience in the graphic design and advertising industry to the drafting table. She still believes that research, lots of sketching and Spirutein shakes can make every project better.
Margaret Chaves was born in New York City about 40 years ago. She had always loved the city and thrived on its energy but frankly, there weren't enough acorns there. After a four year stint at Rhode Island school of Design in Providence, she emerged with a bachelors in Graphic Design and the desire to populate the world with logos and other meaningful related collateral.
After dodging one too many plummeting acorns in her back yard, Margaret decided to open acorndesign in 2002 with a mission: to produce simple elegant designs that can stand on their own and work together whether in print or online.
