About

Stefan Lawrence

Proprietor, Designer, Et Cetera.

“[Stefan is] a nut case, in the mold of Rolly Crump and Joe Rohde.” – Bob Gurr

Stefan Lawrence has been a graphic designer for ten years plus. He designs, illustrates, writes, animates & ideates for a living. He just moved to Los Angeles to pursue work in themed entertainment, and is currently working as a creative consultant for the Hettema Group.

After graduating from Cornell University, he spent his formative years at US Concepts, an event marketing company, where he was their one-man art department, designing everything from t-shirts to trucks, buses to posters – and everything in between. Since 2006, he has been working freelance, under the name Stefan Rules!!! for such companies as Time Warner, Mother, Lexis Nexis, Drillteam and Iris, to name a few. Through the years, he has created designs for Nike, Nintendo, Smirnoff, Johnson & Johnson, Virgin and Dell, among others.

In addition to agency work, Stefan loves to design for the creative community. He’s an active member in the legendary sketch comedy group Elephant Larry, and has designed for many of the best comedians in New York. If you’re in a comedy group or a band, he’d love to hear from you.

Outside the studio, Stefan enjoys Tiki drinks, barbecue, Disneyland, cocktails, cooking and listening to high-fidelity phonographic records. He collects wood carvings and loves vintage transportation posters in all their forms. All of his interests inspire his design, especially music and 20th century poster art.

He lives in Pasadena with his wife, a sociopathic cat, and a very small daughter.
