About Us | fundi design

All about us.

Based in Los Angeles, we spend our days crafting design solutions that delight our clients.

From A to Z

Fundi does it all: branding, websites, print collateral and even interiors. We build and refresh brands of all sizes, across all touchpoints, for corporate and non-profit clients.

Size matters

We’re fast and nimble for the small assignments, but we scale in size and might for larger projects, thanks to our extensive network of multidisciplinary partnerships.

The right fit

Our strategic collective of seasoned professionals, with diverse backgrounds and honed skillsets, has been raising the bar on intelligent design since 2007.

No egos, no limits

Meeting a deadline is just the beginning. We thrive on collaboration and work hard to ensure working with us is easy.

Leading by example

Lee Winnick, fundi’s principal, spearheads the hand-picked collective with a global, service-oriented mindset.

With over 25 years in marketing and design in Los Angeles, London and South Africa, she’s also our interior design expert, transforming corporate offices and residential spaces to align with a company’s brand or reflect an individual’s personality.

We’re more than experienced.

We’re experts at what we do.

When it comes to our design collective, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

Individual strengths and expert skillsets create a win-win situation for fundi and our clients, driven by a streamlined yet robust creative process that surpasses client expectations.

We don’t just put the creative in business, we also put our clients’ minds at ease.

High five!

But don’t take our word for it.
