the story behind Type Y
What started as a passion for thoughtful design became a creative agency dedicated to helping mission-driven organizations make a lasting impact.
I like making complicated things make sense.
I'm Leah Dunlap, the designer behind Type Y Marketing. I combine graphic design, marketing, research, and a healthy obsession with making information easier to understand.
I work with organizations doing important, sometimes complicated work—and turn that complexity into brands, websites, and visual communications that people can actually understand and use.
the meaning of Type Y
Type Y isn't just a name; it’s a standard. While others focus on the status quo, Type Y is the personality of momentum: the drive to lead, the hunger to grow, and the vision to inspire.
At our core, we provide the structural brand design and strategic marketing that visionary leaders need to rise. We connect the dots for your brand identity so your mission doesn't just sit still—it moves people.
the foundation of Type Y
We can’t build trustworthy brands without a core foundation that embodies the heart behind every mission we support.
Design with impact—Every pixel is a piece of the bigger picture.
Vibes matter—Good work starts with kind energy.
People first—Relationships fuel our process.
Translate the complex—We make the meaningful understandable.
These core values were carefully selected to summarize the ethics deeply associated with our team. We don't just work with Type Y brands, we are Type Y people ourselves.
Let's make it make sense.
Have a complicated organization, a big idea, or a pile of information that needs to become a great design? Let's turn it into something people can understand.
