Entire World
Based in Philadelphia, Entire World is a design agency that specializes in branding and logo design. Entire World is owned and operated by Austin Gray, who—not by coincidence—wrote this paragraph, as well as all the others on this page. That should go a long way toward explaining the forthcoming shift to first-person. Hello! Do you feel like you’d like to work together but you’re not sure if it’s in my wheelhouse? Feel free to ask! I’ve done just about everything the last two decades and probably have examples of work that might better suit your needs.
Austin Gray
I am Austin Gray. I am a native of Salina, Kansas and moved to Nashville, Tennessee in 2004. In December 2023, my wife and I made the wild decision to move to South Philadelphia.
My interest in design started at age 8 when I picked up some Crayola markers in his basement and designed (a fairly hideous) solid-blue uniform for the Seattle Mariners. Countless hours were spent designing new logos and uniforms for existing teams and entire fictional sports leagues. I started designed uniforms for my little league baseball team and had my first corporate logo in use at age 14. From childhood, graphic-design-as-occupation has been a singular vision.
I attended the esteemed graphic design program at Fort Hays State University and graduated cum laude in 2003. I then headed to Nashville for an internship at the legendary letterpress shop, Hatch Show Print. It is there that I met my now-wife, Delaney. I worked for Delevante Creative for 8 years and started Entire World in the fall of 2013. In 2016, I was one of only a handful of Nashville-based designers to speak at the Brand New Conference in Nashville. Charles S. Anderson told me I did a good job, which is a memory I cling tightly to. Video of the speech is available upon request. Probably.
Delaney and I got married in 2010 and are the proud parents of three cats. I still likes sports (particularly University of Kansas basketball and Manchester City Football Club) and sports uniforms (loves the Padres uniforms of the ’60s, hates…but owns…the Phillies City Connects). I have over 350 soccer jerseys, and I take off work for the first two days of March Madness. I like Scotch, speaking Spanish and designing fitted caps.
I would love to design your logo.
If football shirts/soccer jerseys are your thing, please check out Soccer Sigils, an Instagram feed in which I explain the origin stories of the crests and colors of shirts I own.
