About Smith & Diction

Founded in 2015 by Mike Smith and Chara Smith, Smith & Diction is a branding & identity agency based in Philadelphia. Its work also spans Strategy. Past clients include Perplexity, Grammarly, Coda, Rail Park and Elixr Coffee. Its work has been recognized at Best of Philly and Brand New.

Smith & Diction proves a two-person studio can out-punch entire brand departments: they gave Perplexity its identity and were tapped for the Grammarly-Superhuman-Coda merger branding — AI-era assignments most big studios would kill for. Mike designs, Chara writes, and the interplay shows in identities where voice and visuals are genuinely inseparable.

Their newsletter-and-blog process writing has made them one of the most beloved studios among working designers. Small by design, so timelines depend on the queue.
