We're a husband-and-wife design studio that understands you want beautiful invitations that reflect your personal style. We favor classicism with a contemporary twist, but if your tastes lean more toward robots than roses, punk than peonies, that's great too.
We are based in the San Francisco Bay Area and are available to meet you in San Francisco or Oakland, CA.

Samantha and Owen Troy
Owner
We met while studying at Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) and founded Design des Troy in 2006 — the year after we collaborated to design our own wedding invitations. We design custom wedding invitations, identity systems, album covers and more. We also design and hand print our own line of greeting cards, ornaments and art prints.
Although we’d describe our sensibilities as modern and clever, we don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all aesthetic; we work with our clients to tailor design solutions to each project.

They also helped me to create an adorable illustration of my husband and me that we used on save-the-dates, postage stamps, and other wedding accessories. I can't recommend them highly enough.
