We create brands that stand out.
Branding, design + strategy – all built around you.
From full brand identities to websites to one-off print or digital pieces, every project is crafted around your needs and guided directly by Jen Stern, founder and creative director.
Jen is your designer, main point of contact, and strategic partner from start to finish. She loves what she does and stays hands-on with every client, ensuring a seamless experience — and brings in expert collaborators behind the scenes when the project calls for it.
No account managers. No handoffs. Just smart, personal creative.
Cutting-edge creative.
Personal attention.
Jen Stern launched 452 Design in 2003 to meet a clear need for premium design without the overhead, inflated pricing, or layers of a traditional agency. At 452, clients work directly with Jen — the designer actually doing the work.
You’ll work one-on-one with Jen from start to finish. When needed, she brings in trusted collaborators — but always under her direction, to keep the process seamless and focused.
From branding and websites to digital and print, Jen is committed to getting it right — every time.
