Empirical

The small but fiercely deliberate design outfit up the block goes by Empirical. Tasks here run from brand identity and packaging to printed collateral and wayfinding systems; they’ll also map user experiences for apps and sculpt motion graphics. The space—244 5th Ave n257 in NoMad—handles every step from concept boards to final production files delivered over the wire. Call directly to book time: (212) 365-0403.

After the west-side makes stops elsewhere, a dead-simple route leads to their door; here the sidewalks calm near Madison Square Park. Skip the elevator—hit the directory for n257 without fuss. Slide the precise itinerary into a map view here: directions.
