HOW COGNEO internalizes clients’ goals and objectives as our own to create value while respecting the environment and improving society. WHAT COGNEO is a full-service design and technology firm specializing in identity, branding, print, mobile apps, multimedia, and the web. Led by Principal Collin Stone, COGNEO was founded in 1995. Our focus is on successful and award- winning client engagements in the area of design and development for small to medium-sized organizations. The COGNEO name, defined as “THINK NEW,” (derived from ancient Greek and Scandanavian sources) is mirrored by our vision for delivering innovative solutions. At our core is the ability to marshal the talents of it-should-just-work-programmers with the user experience and aesthetic sensibilities of master designers. Our crew expands as needed to meet a diverse range of client projects. COGNEO maintains offices in San Francisco and Mountain View, California. We like to listen – really listen, engage, and actively collaborate, often in an “Agile” development mode, to arrive at the best possible solutions.
