The Story

My name is Ryan Roberts and I created Blank Screen Visuals which started as a large format art & design studio catering to the interior design, hospitality, private collector and advertising industries in their constant pursuit of one-of-a-kind artworks for their blank walls and projects. It was quickly realized that the underlying business was visual content creation and website design and that the need for both creative content and web design in the world of commerce has never been greater.

Through collaborating with fellow creatives, I'm able to line up the appropriate teams for each project's unique goals and needs. By working in this manner overhead is reduced which leads to lower costs for your project.

With the primary driver being a need (ok maybe it's more of an obsession) to create stimulating visuals & designs, a wide ranging spectrum of projects are tackled including, visual content strategy & creation, website design & development and interior design commissions. Through the use of visual expression Blank Screen has been able to assist clients decorate their lobbies, surpass their direct to consumer E-Commerce KPIs and achieve real estate goals. Whether it's a 40 foot, 18 piece, large format art installation for the St. Louis Marriott Grand's hotel lobby or on-figure photography for Harper's Bazaar's E-Commerce platform Shop Bazaar, every project is approached with a dual focus of Art & Commerce.

In my experience, the more that is known about the scope, priorities, available resources and goals of a project, the more efficient the process is, which ultimately leads to lower costs for clients. This explains why I'm so inquisitive at the beginning of projects. It not only helps me understand what we're going to accomplish but also assists clients in thinking through exactly what they need, leading to happier more efficient working relationships.

Where did the name come from? It's pretty simple actually. Like many before me, I start every project with blank screens, my canvases. With a blank screen there are no limits, no preconceived notions and no boundaries. A blank screen represents endless possibilities. From the blankness comes inspiration. From the blankness comes the stream of consciousness that leads the way to solving whatever challenge is in front of me. My specialty is turning the blankness into the visual designs and content that will assist your business achieve its commerce goals faster.
