We Are Harc
Hello. We’re the people behind the work.
Parker and Jarren. Husbands, business partners and the people you’ll actually work with. We bring creative direction and thoughtful stewardship to brands with something real to say.
We’re in this together.
Harc is our creative branding practice. We work with organizations that have something worth putting into the world, helping them find the language, identity and practical tools to do it well.
Our name means to listen attentively. That’s where we begin. A good conversation can reveal the detail that changes the whole project: what people are proud of, what the old language misses, what someone has been trying to say for years.
Parker brings a designer’s eye and an ear for language. He finds connections, gives ideas a form and gets properly invested in the details. Jarren brings people and projects together. He understands the relationships around a decision, keeps the practical pieces in view and helps the work move forward with care.
Together, we can stay with a complicated question and still get something made. A brand. A website. A plan people know how to use. The conversation has somewhere to go.
We’re also husbands. Being queer and building a life together have shaped what we notice, whose perspectives we seek out and how we make room for difference. There’s humour in the room. There’s candour. And there’s a lot of care for the people whose names are going on the work.
