There’s something happily surreal about sipping on your morning coffee and reading the newspaper when you stumbled across a story about a client’s success story. Very nice indeed. A few years ago we designed the logo, brand iden [...]

Tourism BC has created initiatives such as the
HelloBC.com official tourism site as part of its mandate to promote development and growth in the tourism industry, increasing revenues, employment, and economic benefits throughout BC. And with the 2010 Olympics fast approaching, we're excited at the chance to work on some of the initiatives that will promote the province we're all so proud to live in.

We worked with our client to identify the key qualities of the new Jakes, Capable, Dependable, Resourceful, Down-to-earth, Professional and Progressive, which we used to guide our design process.
The result was a name change from "Jake's", implying one person, to the more inclusive plural "Jakes" and switching from "Contracting", a word that has the perception of a small-operation, to "Construction", which more accurately reflects the level and scale of their operations.
Using our new understanding of their brand, we developed a clean, simple logo as part of a brand identity that reflected the main attributes that underpin everything they do, from how they interact with their clients to the smallest to details of their work.
As part of their new identity, we created a full brand strategy platform, online styleguide resource with templates and brand elements as well as produced a promotional campaign, collateral system and new website to tell their story. Congratulations Jakes on the new look!

Through vérité footage and in-depth conversations, the film documents the creative processes of some of the world’s most influential designers, and looks at how the things they make impact our lives. What can we learn about who we are, and who we want to be, from the objects with which we surround ourselves?
The film is still in production and slated for an early 2009 release. If it's as well researched and produced as
Helvetica was, it's destined to be another resounding success. I can't wait to see it.

Let’s face it: Gary Hustuit’s documentary Helvetica was a runaway hit. I certainly didn’t expect so many designers and non-designers alike to get so goofy about a film about a typeface. Building on his success and reputati [...]
