Lake Oswego graphic designer Troy Stange has become a huge hit with elite companies including MTV International and MSN. He has completed numerous projects for these large organizations including elaborate event presentations, graphic design, and unique Facebook applications. Stange owns Portland Design Lab, a small company that provides website design, search engine optimization, search engine marketing, Facebook application development, and graphic design.
“It’s exciting for me to finalize a well-executed project that will be in front of so many of people,” says Stange. “It positions me as a low-level celebrity with that client’s company. As a result, I’ve built a level of stability within these organizations and I find that my name gets passed around as a quality vendor they should use. It puffs up the ego a bit but I am very grateful for the referrals!”
Most recently, Stange was asked to develop a unique Facebook application. This project was a cross-promotion for MTV International, Swatch, and the new James Bond film "Quantum of Solace." Swatch had unveiled a new line of watches designed after the villains of the Bond films. Stange developed an application for Facebook that quizzed users, “Which Villain Are You?” Stange also designed a Facebook application for the European MTV Music Awards in which Facebook users voted on their favorite artists.
“I am very happy with how far Portland Design Lab has come. I don’t want to compete with the big boys. I enjoy having a small shop where I can control the creative and work one-on-one with the clients. I am looking forward to working with new clients and developing successful projects for them.”
