From large-scale community projects to award-winning logos and custom illustrations, 2024 was a year of creativity and collaboration. Explore the highlights and stories behind the work we delivered.
In 2023, we undertook various projects, including updated branding for long-time clients like Black Bear Healing Home and Angela's Cookie Jar, noteworthy illustration work for Greenbank Hunt Club Centre and the latest spy thriller cover art for Rhiannon Beaubien, and web and print design for clients such as Howard, Kelford, & Dubois and Handfashioned Fine Craft. We look forward to all the new work in 2024.
We recently revamped the Crown & Pumpkin Studio Tour's website, a 27-year-old cultural event in Lanark County, outside Ottawa, Canada. The old site's disorganized layout was replaced with a clear brand message and user-friendly features like streamlined navigation, categorization for easy discovery, dedicated tour stop pages, and enhanced maker profiles. Initial feedback has been positive with an increase in social media traction, over 16,000 website visits in a month, and hopes of enhanced engagement for future events.
Celebrating success: 6 of our logo designs will be featured in the prestigious LogoLounge Book 14. Join us as we delve into the stories behind each of the designs.
