hi!

I’m Jen Urdang Stern, Founder and Creative Director of 452 Design Studio, established in 2003.
For over two decades, I’ve worked directly with clients who value thoughtful, intentional design — without layers, handoffs, or intermediaries. Just experienced collaboration and clear creative direction.
When I’m not designing for clients, I’m still designing.
As a Philadelphia native, I was always searching for sports apparel that felt bold for game day — yet refined enough for a night out.
I couldn’t find it. So I designed it.
Fly Society 215 began as a small-batch collection rooted in the same principles I use in my studio practice and teach as an adjunct professor: clean typography, restraint, and considered detail.
Design-led. Small-run. Intentional.
452 Design continues to take on branding projects that are the right fit.
