ART DIRECTOR · DESIGNER · DIGITAL COMMUNICATIONS
Design that
moves things forward.
I’m Cedric Morris, an art director and multidisciplinary designer creating brand systems, digital experiences, campaigns, and public-facing communications for government, nonprofit, healthcare, and growing brands.
WHAT I BRING TO THE TABLE
One creative partner for the parts of a brand people actually see, use, and remember.
Creative Direction & Visual Leadership
I help turn broad goals, rough concepts, and competing ideas into a clear creative direction teams can rally around. From early concept through final execution, I focus on building work that feels intentional, cohesive, and worth paying attention to.
Brand Identity & Design Systems
Strong brands do more than look good — they make everything that follows feel more consistent. I create and evolve visual identities, design systems, and supporting assets that give organizations a recognizable presence across print, digital, and social.
Web & Digital Experiences
I design websites and digital experiences that balance visual impact with real-world usability. That includes organizing complex content, improving user paths, and translating a brand into something people can actually navigate and use.
Campaigns, Content & Public-Facing Communications
I create work meant to inform, engage, and move people to action. Whether it is a public campaign, social content series, video, launch toolkit, or everyday communications asset, I know how to shape a message so it earns attention and stays clear.
selected works
A mix of brands, websites, campaigns, and public-facing work built to make an impact long after launch.

Project Introduction
The DC Department of Public Works provides a wide range of essential city services, including trash and recycling collection, parking enforcement, street sweeping, leaf collection, snow response and waste diversion.
With so many services, programs and seasonal operations competing for attention, the homepage needed to do more than present information. It needed to help residents quickly understand where to go, what action to take and how to access the services they use most.
I led the complete redesign of the DPW homepage, handling the user experience, content and data organization, page structure, visual design, imagery and final launch.

Project Introduction
For a public works agency, social media is more than a marketing channel. It is part of how residents receive service information, prepare for seasonal operations, understand agency programs and respond to changing conditions across the city.
I manage DPW’s social media and digital engagement strategy, translating a wide range of services and operational information into content that is clear, timely, visually consistent and useful to DC residents.
The work includes everyday service reminders, public education campaigns, emergency communications, seasonal operations, workforce stories, community engagement, graphic design, video production and performance analysis.
