YOUR GOALS.MY FULL FOCUS.
I’m Chris Thorne, the designer and strategist behind Thorne Design Studio. My work combines strategy, visual design, development, and search into one focused system built around the business.

A different foundation.
I built Thorne Design Studio around a simple idea: the person shaping the strategy should also be responsible for executing it. My background in technology, professional design training, and military service shapes the direct, disciplined approach I bring to every project.
Information Technology
Bachelor’s degree in Information Technology from the University of West Florida, providing a strong foundation in technology, systems, and problem-solving.
Flux Academy
Advanced training through Flux Academy in web design, Webflow development, Figma, visual design, and brand identity.
Disciplined Execution
Service as a U.S. Army Green Beret shaped how I plan, communicate, adapt under pressure, and take responsibility for the outcome.
One point of contact.
Full accountability.
You work directly with me from strategy through launch—without account managers, outsourced handoffs, or layers of communication. The work stays focused, communication stays clear, and responsibility never changes hands.
