Branding: Sue’s Sewing and Embroidery

I’m always honored when people put their business ideas into my hands to create new design work. It’s especially exciting to me when it’s a creative business, launched by an individual, which is near and dear to me, running my own independent creative business. This case is no different, except I’ve seen years of exceptional projects come from this individual. Sue’s Sewing and Embroidery provides excellent work for sewing and custom machine embroidery projects, and would certainly be a great choice to create something special for you.

Branding: DataVisto

Launching a new business is exciting and I’m always honored to design a custom look and feel. For this data visualization company, I was given a color palette and direction to make a look that was “fresh and fun” while still being appropriate for the tech sector. After pencil sketches and a first round of options, one design stood out as the clear solution. Below are the three final versions.

Branding: Keep Safe Productions

As usual, when I have a design project for a new business starting up, I really enjoy the process of starting from scratch. It’s always a pleasure take a client’s thoughts and bring those ideas into a visual identity. For Keep Safe Productions, we actually decided to go with a black and white only design. It felt like the right fit for this design, while lending itself to all the final uses that the business owner will need as the business grows. Another issue that came up was the need for two different shaped logos, so I ended up designing two logo variations.

Branding: Plaid Love Threads

I always really enjoy working with friends on their own small businesses, especially when it’s branding. After discussing ideas and what they envision, I get to bring the ideas to life and come up with something solid. Plaid Love Threads is a company selling hand-embroidered gifts and items for the home. After choosing a design, the owner chose a color palette that is often seen in plaid, so that she could coordinate her packaging easier. The end result is so much fun and a perfect fit- and this is the reason collaboration is good!

Since it’s such a good match, I requested that last photo above from the owner to showcase the packaging and her beautiful work!

Branding: Project Eden

Eden Project is a large gardening project in Livermore that is producing pounds of edibles each year. It came time to create some official branding for the project and I got to work on it. I really like the monochromatic color scheme of this one.

Branding: Impact Projects

A new logo for a brand new organization. Impact Projects focuses on helping grassroots projects succeed, enabling them develop the initial idea into something that can achieve larger impact within the community.
