Handmade
Everything we do is always handmade by humans for humans. We love collaborating with other creators, builders, and thinkers.
About Us
We're a husband-and-wife duo in Raleigh, North Carolina. Brooke Winston is learning expert and professional speaker. Christopher Whittemore is a multidisciplinary creative director and artist.
Design is a big topic that is sometimes overlooked and undervalued because great art is like great math: it’s expected, it just makes sense, don’t think about it too much. But great art is great because it’s intentional, specific, and most of all—handmade by artisans. Design is the same. It can help you build a business from scratch, grow into a seedling, scale to new heights, and bear fruit. We founded Kutzpa because we wanted to ensure great design will always be accessible to organizations who want it.
Our Values
Artful Education
In a world of templated repeats and diminishing root resources, we aspire to incorporate art and education into every project.
Always Growing
We feel strongly that learning never ends. We love to stay curious and push growing boundaries.
Working Together
Our work is always rooted in understanding you, your audience, and your world. We only take on a limited number of contracts at a time to ensure your project gets the focus it deserves. As owners, we are the creators of the work and serve as the primary contact for every client. If there's anything we can't do ourselves, we partner with trusted local experts. #supportlocal
