About
Turbo Design is the design and illustration studio of Lee Downing. My independent creative endeavors have allowed me to work with many fascinating people and companies over the last 20 years. And thanks to the internet, I now have clients in Atlanta, Chicago and Destin, Florida. I’m always looking for that next project though…feel free to send me an email!

So what’s with this Turbo stuff?
My studio name evolved from my very first computer, which I had named Turbo, since it had the fastest processor of the two Macs at my last place of full-time employment. I would race into work every morning to gaze at its 20″ color monitor. It was truly an exciting time in the design industry as we set aside our drawing tables and paste-up materials and made the transition to computer design. The Turbo name followed me out the door, a year or so later, when I became an independent designer.
Eight computers later I’m up to a 2.66 MHz processor, no longer the fastest, but I remain highly efficient and equally enamored with all things Apple.
