In 2002, fifth + missing media group (fm2g) was established as a high-end creative alternative to the many out-of-date graphic and web design studios. Our goal was to usher in a new, highly creative environment that stimulated the imaginations of both client and designer. Our mission today is to maintain this environment. We do so by placing high standards on all of our work but making sure the process is an enjoyable one for the client and ourselves.

fifth + missing is a recognized design studio with clients from California to the UK in industries from healthcare to automotive parts.

We're well connected within the design community with strong ties to specialists in the printing, multimedia and web development industries. In those rare instances when we're not able to handle your requirements, we'll be happy to pass you on to someone who can.

Manhattan's 5th Avenue is rumoured to be the most expensive street in the world. Gucci, Prada, Saks and Trump Tower line its sidewalks. The Empire State Building and St. Patrick's Cathedral call it home.

5th Avenue is a commercial powerhouse.
5th Avenue is wealthy.
5th Avenue glitters.
5th Avenue is gold.

If one were to look a little closer however, beyond the suits and aplomb, tucked away in the shadows is something unique. At an out-of-the-way intersection, on the backend of the 5th stretch where the traffic is as heavy as the personalities are vibrant, you'll come across a small building that looks a little different. No lineups, no pushy salespeople, no red tape, no over-priced products. Missing is everything 5th. It's unique and colourful and creative and friendly. The walls are orange and the windows are open. This is where you'll find us. At the corner of Fifth & Missing.

Welcome to the best part of town.

career marketing specialists (cms). We were, at first, reluctant to move our print & web design work to fifth + missing from another agency that we had developed a good relationship with over a number of years. We knew, however, that we needed to freshen and update our corporate image and that the “old” company we were using were responding to our creative ideas – instead of us responding to their ideas. Our presentation was in a bit of a rut. We tried fifth + missing on a small brochure project and it was immediately apparent that we were dealing with a different class of mind and quality workmanship. The new image they proposed resonated with our particular marketplace and we were very pleased with their ideas. Needless to say, fifth + missing has been handling all our print and web design work ever since and the results of that involvement are there for everyone to view. Further, I might add, the company does what they say they will do and they charge what they say they will charge. From the all important price standpoint, I consider their prices very competitive indeed. Alan Hack, V.P.

ph sound. I recently hired Fifth and Missing to design my new logo and business cards. They managed to perfectly capture my company image, and brought it to the next level. The amount of positive feedback I've had from clients is overwhelming! This is absolutely top notch work. I highly recommend fm2g for any design work. Patrick Hodgson
