History

The company was founded under the trade name ‘DesignDivine’ by Todd Dumas in 2001. DesignDivine functioned mostly as a ‘one-man-shop’ until the first programmer was contracted in 2007. At this point, the scope and complexity of DesignDivine projects expanded rapidly with a tilt toward web development.

In 2010, Hilary Clarcq was recruited to increase service capacity and extended graphic illustration capabilities. Hilary is currently a DD9 principal and front-end web developer.

In 2011, after a decade in business, DesignDivine outgrew its name and rented office space and began a transition to a hip new studio with a hip new brand name, DD9. In 2016, we purchased our studio space, giving DD9 a permanent base of operations in ‘NoBo’ (North Boulder).

In 2017, we partnered with Land & Sea Co., expanding our network of contractors/specialist, extending our service offerings further into branding, marketing and copywriting.

Looking forward, DD9 expects strong growth as we take on increasingly sophisticated application development projects and large scale branding and marketing campaigns.
