Asks questions no one’s thought of to find solutions everyone’s looking for. Always thinking about big-picture strategy and finding new ways to cook meat. Spends Saturdays consuming sci-fi and writing heavy music with friends.

The new business end of Rubric. In charge of landing interesting new projects, making clients happy, and coffee. A maker of beautiful music and master of oral sound effects. A secret Jim Henson nerd. Will always find ways of working smarter. Will never participate in karaoke.

ALEX PINES

co-founder, Partner

Resident encyclopedia of everything type and design. A teacher at heart and at Otis College of Art and Design. Always looking for ways to work more efficiently and foster interactivity through form, color, and typography.

SAM TRAPKIN

Big picture thinker and crystal ball gazer. Sees the future that clients want, and works to make it happen. Writer of music and words. An expert in choosing the perfect track for the task at hand.

The Rubric team is like Dom Toretto and his Fast and Furious crew. When you work with them, you are working with family, and they will do whatever you need to make you happy or to break you out of prison if you were wrongly convicted, regardless of what a court of law says. All this to say, they make great designs that age well and always look great on any device.

Comedian, Podcaster

Rubric was all we could have hoped for when redesigning our site. Highly organized, extremely punctual, and unfailingly efficient, the project was completed on time and above expectations. The team is a pleasure to deal with and are always extremely generous with time. I cannot recommend working with them more strongly.
