Introducing Our Team
Carrying the company forward
Carter Design Group’s next chapter is being shaped by a team with deep roots in the company. Ted Carter continues to guide our design vision as Creative Director, while Harry Portlock serves as President, leading the employee-owned company forward alongside the talented team behind every project.
The transition reflects the same collaborative philosophy that has guided the company for decades: bringing together different skills, ideas, and perspectives to create something stronger together.
