[portfolio_slideshow id=2246]
Here’s the poster we created for the 2nd annual TIMBER! Outdoor Music Festival. Take a look at those headliners!

poster // Squeak ‘n’ Squawk : 2013
This is the poster we designed for the 2013 iteration of the annual Squeak ‘n’ Squawk music festival in Tacoma, Wash. If there was a squeaking and squawking animal that was the festival’s mascot, this would be one of its feathers.

identity // a tasty logo!
We recently had the distinct pleasure to work with the gals at Wine Country Chocolates to help them create a new logo that better expressed their unique, gourmet, hand-made chocolates.
You can see the tasty new logo above on their brand new sign outside their Jack London Village location in Glen Ellen, CA. We look forward to seeing the logo take over their boxes, packaging and other materials.
Our design director Mary found a way to carry over their yellow and black checker pattern used in their previous logo (see the image below:)
However, she freed the checks from their formalized placement by giving them an imperfectly-edged, handmade look just the way their one-of-a-kind chocolate truffles appear. She also made “Chocolate” the focus of the logo while (with the help of Ms. Esme Johnson’s handwriting) giving it an almost drizzled look—almost as if it were written in chocolate sauce. Don’t you just want to take a bite out of it?
If you haven’t tried their truffles before, be sure to stop into one of their locations for a mind-blowing treat. We highly recommend “The Elvis” in all its peanut-buttery and banana-y goodness.
And if you have tried their truffles before, don’t you think it’s time for a second helping? Or a third? Or a fourth . . . ?

poster // Beervana
We were recently tasked by the Sonoma Community Center to develop a graphic and poster to promote their first annual Beervana amateur beer brewing competition. They asked us to create something to expressed the idea of “Nirvana for beer-lovers”—something a bit humorous.
We instantly thought of an effervescent, jolly buddha rising from the frothy bubbles of a divine brew. And a mock beer label was created.
To attain Beervana, one must eliminate all desire and suffering through the tasting and appreciating of hand-crafted beer—and this is best accomplished by attending this sure-to-be-a-blast event. Click here for details.

posters // Trashion Show
The Sonoma Community Center is curating a “Trashion” Fashion Show & Exhibit centered around fashions created by Bay Area artists from recycled and found materials. We were inspired by the subject matter to make our own imagery for the posters from a collage of found items and imagery.

2010 Sonoma Valley Muse
Each year, the Sonoma Community Center selects a prominent character from Sonoma’s history to celebrate as the years’ Sonoma Valley Muse. Past years have been in honor of Jack London, “Big Alma” Spreckels and Robert Lynch. A special event is the focus of the celebration, which raises much needed funds for the treasure of an arts and cultural center that is the Sonoma Community Center.
This year, the honoree is Hanzell Vineyards founder James D. Zellerbach—who also served as U.S. Ambassador to Italy. The Italy connection inspired the theme of this year’s celebration: Roman Holiday!
We were once again happy to help create promotional materials and invitations to spread the word about the wonderful event. You can learn more about this year’s event—and buy tickets—here!
