Introduction

CrayonBuilding is a privately held design company headquartered in Inverness, Illinois. Founded in September 2023, the company specializes in user interface (UI) design and graphic design services. CrayonBuilding focuses on creating visual identities, digital layouts, and design systems tailored for web platforms and interactive media.

The company maintains its primary online presence through crayonbuilding.com and related domains. Since its founding, CrayonBuilding has positioned itself as a creative studio emphasizing modern design practices, brand development, and user-focused visual solutions. Its work blends functional design with artistic expression, supporting both digital products and creative projects.

History

CrayonBuilding was founded in September 2023 in Inverness, Illinois, as an independent creative venture. The company began with a focus on apparel, initially developing t-shirts and accessories that highlighted simple graphic design concepts. Early efforts were directed at creating a recognizable brand identity through clothing, with designs aimed at blending casual wear with digital-inspired aesthetics.

In 2024, the company began to shift away from merchandise and turned its attention toward digital creativity. CrayonBuilding expanded into the Roblox ecosystem, producing in-game content, experimenting with interactive experiences, and building custom assets for the platform. This period marked the company’s transition from physical products to virtual environments, while still maintaining its focus on visual creativity and brand identity.

By 2025, CrayonBuilding had consolidated its activities into a design studio specializing in user interface (UI) design and graphic design. This transition reflected the company’s growing emphasis on digital platforms, client-driven projects, and creative experimentation. Today, CrayonBuilding positions itself as a design-focused firm that provides branding, layout, and interface solutions while maintaining its origins in community-based creative work.

Services

CrayonBuilding provides a range of design-focused services centered on user interface (UI) design and graphic design. The company’s work includes the creation of digital layouts, branding systems, and visual identities for both web and interactive platforms. Its design approach emphasizes clarity, usability, and modern aesthetics, aiming to balance functionality with creativity.

In addition to UI design, CrayonBuilding develops graphics for logos, promotional materials, and online content. The company also extends its services into platform-specific design, including interactive media and game-related assets. Its portfolio reflects a combination of brand development, product visualization, and digital artistry tailored to client needs.

Corporate identity

CrayonBuilding was founded in September 2023 in Inverness, Illinois, where it established its initial headquarters as a small independent creative studio. As the company expanded its activities beyond its original scope, it also began operating out of 155 North Wacker Drive in Chicago, Illinois, within the Ernst & Young (EY) building. This dual presence reflects the company’s local roots in the northwest suburbs of Chicago as well as its positioning in a professional downtown business district.

The company maintains its primary online presence through crayonbuilding.com and supports its digital brand identity through additional domains, including crayonbuilding.space and crayonbuilding.xyz. CrayonBuilding’s design philosophy emphasizes modernity and clarity, incorporating consistent visual themes across its logo, color palettes, and typography. This unified approach reflects the company’s focus on combining functional design with artistic creativity in both UI and graphic design projects.
