Cuffe Sohn Design Studio

Based in Salem, Oregon, Cuffe Sohn Design Studio is a small design and marketing agency, run by Kenneth Cuffe and Patti Sohn, serving businesses across the Pacific Northwest. Its client roster spans varied sectors, including theatrical production (Elsinore Theatre), automotive retail (Withnell Motor Co.), technology (Lucidyne Technologies), architecture and construction (Henderer Design + Build, MAK Design Build), manufacturing (West Salem Machinery, Gerlinger Carrier), and arts organizations (Salem Symphony), pointing to a practice built around long-term, regional client relationships rather than a single industry focus. The studio's declared services cover website design, branding, print design, video production, and search engine optimization. Its stated working method moves through four stages: clarifying and refining a client's brand messaging, structuring website layouts to communicate that message to an online audience, embedding marketing and sales elements such as calls-to-action to drive results, and finishing the work with original visual design. Video production is used for branded film series, as seen in projects for the Elsinore Theatre and a rebranding campaign for Withnell Motor Co. that included both television and online films. The agency describes an approach centered on learning each client's business, goals, and challenges before developing strategy and creative output, applying this across web design, logo and print work, and photography for its client base.
