PinDesign was founded by Rob Richards in 1994. His career in communication design began in New York studying at the prestigious Parsons School of Design. The Art Directors Club of NY awarded him a scholarship and his portfolio was selected for exhibition. Upon graduation, he was employed by Calvin Klein’s in-house advertising department where he worked on the much-publicized “Marky Mark” campaign. Since then, Mr. Richards has worked for some of the most reputable design agencies in the world, such as, Pentagram, Bates World Wide, and Siegel & Gale. Most recently, Mr. Richards was among a list of 200 designers that were “Seen & Noted” by Graphic Design:usa’s January 2006 issue.
