Engineering and Evolution
I began my education intending to follow in my father’s footsteps, seeking a degree as a computer engineer. However, my overzealous nature struck, and by the time the dust settled I had obtained degrees in computer engineering, math, design communication, electrical engineering, and computer science from the University of Arizona.
It was during this seemly never-ending college career that I became involved with graphic and web design. Eventually, building websites on a side demanded so much of my time, I decided to take the plunge and make it official. After months of sleepless nights, Graphic Fusion Design was finally born!
A touch of Europe
We are a real company, led by a real person. My name is Alex Gurevich, born in Riga, Latvia my family and I first arrived to the US in 1998. Growing up in Riga and then moving to the US before starting high school was not without its challenges.
But like all good challenges, I feel the resulting growth has served me greatly. You might say my leadership style qualifies as blunt and effective. I make sure everything is done right and that there are no excuses, however tempering a strong logical approach to the company with plenty of artistic passion for all my projects.

From bootstrapping to Fortune 500
In a true start-up fashion, my business partner and I saw every conceivable role from being break room maid, marketing guru to project management and art direction.
It was a massive learning experience and absolutely crucial in giving me the knowledge that allowed me to grow in leaps and bounds. We began with local projects and after a few years had grown to a smoothly operating 10+ man team knocking out large projects from Fox Sports, Ford, to the United States Air Force.
Putting users first
From a User’s Perspective
I love to travel and this allowed me to get a different perspective on how different cultures see things. People get carried away with number goals and abstract objectives, they forget that the path to success is putting users first. Before I create anything, I first imagine myself as a customer.
Reinventing an Agency
Closing in on a decade of Graphic Fusion I knew it was time to completely reinvent the game. My vision for FabricEleven was to crank up the brand, the exclusivity, the team, and the product (all the way to 11). FabricEleven was designed to show you could bring the pure love of design with extreme efficacy and technical prowess of web Tech Company into one seamless brand.

The Team
Find People That Care
The majority of the team is located in Tucson, Arizona. Because of my frequent travels, some also reside around the world. I ended up having access to a strong curated shortlist of industry veterans, thus providing us the nimbleness needed to quickly adapt to our diverse client base.
I strongly believe that most of the time a 20 person team is not as effective as a tailored group of 5 people. Where each person is skilled in their craft and communicates effectively with each other.
