go human

We like to refer to Arcadian Inc as a work in progress, you see the business was unplanned and is still being redesigned daily. That is not necessarily a bad thing , what that means to the client is that we are flexible and willing to change at moments notice. Arcadian Inc and Design was formed in 2008 when a friend in the entertainment business asked us to design him a website. We agreed to the task and here we are year later with over 30 clients under our belt and many more on the way.

Originially our focus was graphic design work for the chicago nightlife, and the music industry. However recently the majority of our projects have consisted of custom myspace design and social networks. As everyone knows Myspace is a phenomenon in the music industry so it was imperative for us to learn everything we could about myspace and we did just that.

We are working hard everyday to bring more and more services to our clients, and so far everyone has been satisfied. Our client roster is quickly growing and we have recently formed partnerships with Coldhearted Entertainment.

All of that being said Arcadian Inc has a lot going for it right now, so if you haven't heard of us yet keep your ears open because we are working very hard to make a huge impact on the music industry and I think we have made a great start.
