The
Studio

DESK is an independent studio, owned and operated by Jason Rubino.

In a world of oversized agencies and disjointed creative teams, I offer something different: a refined, strategic, and deeply personal approach to branding.

With over a decade of experience crafting timeless identities and immersive digital experiences, I bring the expertise of an entire agency—without the inefficiencies, layers of approval, or diluted vision. When you work with me, you get direct access to a creative partner who understands your brand from the inside out, ensuring every design decision is intentional, elevated, and built for lasting impact.

Unlike agencies —

that split projects across multiple designers, I take ownership of every aspect of the creative process, from strategy to execution. This means no mixed design styles, no compromises—just a cohesive, high-end brand that truly reflects your vision.

Beyond design —

I bring real business experience to the table, having co-founded and co-directed multiple startups. I understand the challenges of building and scaling a brand, making my approach not only creative but commercially strategic. I don’t just design for aesthetics—I design for real-world business success.

For larger projects —

requiring additional expertise, I have a trusted network of top-tier specialists—from developers to copywriters, photographers and film makers—who I bring in as needed. This ensures that you get the best talent for your project, without the overhead and inflexibility of a traditional agency.

My expertise —

spans luxury architecture & design, fashion, finance, wellness and the creative industries, allowing me to bring a nuanced perspective tailored to brands that demand excellence.

For businesses —

that value precision, strategy, and a hands-on approach, I offer a high level of craftsmanship and creative direction.
