Re:      K2 Design, Inc's. Registration of an additional 800,000 shares of
         Common Stock under the 1997 Stock Option Plan For Outside Directors.

Gentlemen:

         You have asked us to provide you with our opinion whether the
additional 800,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the
"Common Stock"), of K2 Design, Inc. (the "Company") that may be issued from time
to time pursuant to the exercise of options issued under the K2 Design, Inc.
1997 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), when and if such shares are issued
pursuant to and in accordance with the Plan, will be duly and validly issued,
fully paid and nonassessable. We, as counsel to the Company, have reviewed:

         1.       The Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended;

         2.       The Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, as amended;

         3.       The By-laws of the Company, as amended; and

         4.       The Resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Company.

         Based on our review of such documents, it is our opinion that the
Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of options granted under the Plan, when
and as issued and paid for in accordance with the provisions of the Plan, will
be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. In giving the
foregoing opinion, we have assumed that the Company will have, at the time of
the issuance of such Common Stock, a sufficient number of authorized shares
available for issue.

         We consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
registration statement the Company is filing today in connection with the
registration of 800,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock. In giving this
consent, we do not thereby admit that we come within the category of persons
whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, or the Rules and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
thereunder.

                                    Very truly yours,

                                    BROWN RAYSMAN MILLSTEIN FELDER & STEINER LLP
