The Dynamic Team of Atomic Idea

Keith Durbin is a Designer and Art Director with expansive experience bringing brands to life with insightful design. In his dynamic and full career, he’s designed for major brands such as Amazon, REI, Verizon, Pearl Izumi, Land Rover, Thule, Sephora, Vans, Marriott Hotels, and many more. His expertise includes graphic design, physical product and packaging design, industrial design, trade show, print management, material discovery, and creative strategy. Keith’s designs are like trees: they’re unique, beautiful, and pretty much everywhere. If you’ve purchased a gift card from Walmart, Keith probably designed it. If you’re an NHRA drag racing fan, Keith designed and printed the eye-catching wraps that adorn the cars. If you’ve flipped through Denver Broncos Magazine, Keith brought it to life as the Creative Director.

Keith’s passion for his work has created these opportunities, and each experience has prepared him for the next one. He believes that form always follows function, and that strategic, sensible thinking is the foundation of great design. It’s this fundamental approach that has allowed him to build such an impressive body of work. He even has his own action figure. Keith takes inspiration from all over, but especially enjoys mid-century modern design, vintage camping equipment, and the outdoors. Despite his extensive experience, Keith Durbin still approaches each new project like it’s his first: with passion, care, and a whole lot of imagination.
