Background

Fiveleft was founded in Seattle in 2006 by Charles Krueger, an interactive developer and graphic designer.

Prior to moving to Seattle in the summer of 2006, Charles graduated from the art program at the University of Wisconsin in 2003, then worked for three years as a Flash developer and designer at Tank Design. At Tank – an award-winning design shop in Boston – Charles worked on projects for FedEx, Puma, Sony, Fidelity, Siemens USA, MIT, and Boston Museum of Fine Arts.

Since its formation, Fiveleft has worked with interactive agencies on campaigns for McDonald’s, Microsoft, T-Mobile, and the Seattle Supersonics (R.I.P). Fiveleft also worked as the primary Flash developer for Kohl’s Back to School and Holiday campaigns in 2008 and 2009, and created a Kohl’s Gift Shop application that was used extensively for major shopping campaigns throughout the past two years.

In between work for larger companies, Fiveleft has also prided itself on forming relationships with smaller clients and producing great identities and websites for boutique shops and businesses.

Philosophy

At Fiveleft, our mission is to create visually compelling interactive experiences.

We believe a compelling interactive experience weighs heavily on the visual aesthetic and the "feel" of the experience. In our work, we try to adhere to the highest standards of design throughout the execution of the development. We are passionate about design and interactive quality.
