Dorene Warner
Graphic Designer
Dorene Warner was schooled at The Cleveland Institute of Art and The Cleveland Art Museum and
earned a BFA with honors at Syracuse University’s School of Visual and Performing Arts. She is
committed to continuing her education in website design and video animation by taking courses
at Pratt Institute’s School of Art & Design in NYC.
Warner career began with Chase Manhattan Bank’s Corporate Communications department. She
spent four years designing logos and brochures for internal communications; creating large
scale exhibits to celebrate diversity and heritage months; and developing the corporate identity
guidelines. The relationship between Warner and Chase evolved from in-house senior designer
to client of Wdesign—thus bringing Chase into the midst of a growing list of other financial
institution clients, including AXA Financial, Global Securities, and Lord Securities, along with
real estate corporations Douglas Elliman, the Milstein Brothers, and Alchemy Properties.
In 1994, Dorene officially launched her company Wdesign, focusing on Graphic Design and
Website development. Although she continues to work with Fortune 500 companies, she
specializes in helping newly formed small businesses develop a visual identity and marketing
plan to match their target audience. She is directly involved with all aspects of creative and
client service, and maintains the character and quality of the work produced by Wdesign.
Wdesign’s mission is to deliver smart solutions for clear communication. “Every project is
unique, and we work closely with our clients to understand their individual needs and the
requirements of each assignment”.
Recently, Wdesign has been working with Highland Renaissance on signage for the Eagle
Observation Area near Minisink Ford, NY as well as designing a History Walk brochure for
Barryville, NY. She also developed a website, internal and external signage program, a series of
brochures, menus, postcards and advertisements for the renowned Hotel Fauchère,
in Milford, PA.
