The Owner

Mark Mularz has enjoyed an adventure in graphic design since his first internship 1989. After graduating from the University of San Diego in 1990, his path led him to the thriving graphic design mecca of Minneapolis. Teeth were cut on everything from direct marketing coupons to corporate graphic standards for Fortune 500 companies.

With a healthy dose of experience under the belt and a thirst for winter sports that didn't involve ice augers, Mark moved to Ashland, Oregon in 1998 and started Acorn Design. The business now serves clients in a region that includes Seattle, Portland, Southern Oregon and San Francisco. Mark continues to delight in graphic design, illustration and photography -- all balanced with a proper mix of mountain biking, cycling and backpacking. Hand warmers optional.
