Why ‘Glissade’?

Glissade (noun): [gli-sahd, gli-seyd]

The name “Glissade” embodies our philosophy. Derived from the French word for a graceful slide or glide, it symbolizes the seamless journey we facilitate—from concept to market success.

The world is changing at breathtaking speed, businesses must change as well or be left behind. This change can resemble tumbling down a mountain, arriving battered and bruised (assuming the business survives the tumble).

We think there’s a better way, a skillful glide towards a new destination. Think of a dancer preparing to leap, or a champion skier descending a course - with enough skill movement can be wonderful. We formed Glissade Design to help businesses evolve, through the vision and skillsets of knowledgeable & experienced designers.
