TWO BROTHERS WORKING
TOGETHER FOR 20+ YEARS
We know good creative and design. We get to know our clients and their markets. We help those markets get to know our clients. Our customers come from word of mouth. Some of our customers have been with us since the beginning; ours and theirs. People say we do creative work at a fair price and we are easy to work with. We’re a small nimble shop with big creative drive.
KENT BARNES
Owner, Creative Director,
Designer, Illustrator:
A graduate of Colorado Institute of Art, I worked for a few ad agencies in Denver and Boulder before forming my own studio, Kent Design. In 2006 I formed Barnes Bros. Creative with my talented brother Kurt. I live in Evergreen with my wife and love to spend free time skiing, rafting, hiking and camping. Colorado is a great place to live!
KURT BARNES

I moved to Denver shortly after graduating from the University of Illinois with a degree in graphic design, I “did time” with a large agency before moving on to join Kent. We formed Barnes Bros. together in 2006. I live in the Denver area with my wife, enjoying what the city and mountains have to offer.
MOM ALWAYS SAID, “IF YOU DON’T HAVE ANYTHING NICE TO SAY, DON’T SAY ANYTHING AT ALL.”
