Kuhlman Company
Our rapport with this Anglo-Italian inspired clothing retailer yielded a complete collar-to-cuff brand makeover. We created an icon and "cable K" pattern for everything from gift cards to point-of-sale.

A brand to stand up for. We created this colorful pattern, which was extended into Kuhlman's annual flip flop design. These were a hit with customers.

Two for the price of one. Kuhlman was looking for a coupon to give to potential investors, vendors and friends. Through savvy design we were able to give them a diecut free shirt coupon as well as table tents to advertise the stores in food courts of shopping malls.

Remember the brand. We created this fun little giveaway to keep the Kuhlman shirt patterns in front of the consumer. While the obvious use is a memory game, the game pieces also introduced customers to shirt patterns they might not have noticed before and helped them coordinate their wardrobe.



Who is lonely? Kuhlman, a fine shirt shop, was launching its Standards line. We created these in-store promotions, inspired by newspaper personal ads, to introduce customers to this staple line of shirts.

Napa Jack’s
Napa Jack’s had everything that you would expect from a wine, beer and spirits boutique — except the snobbery. We took a full-bodied approach to create a hip, warm and charismatic identity system, direct mail, packaging, gift cards and in-store point of sale.

Let the people know. Utilizing the anti wine-snobbery tone and fun graphic patterns, we created a direct mail campaign to let the neighborhood know there was now a wine shop that fits their life right in their backyard.

Pagoda
To create a hip, posh Midwest spa that stands out from the myriad of other salon spas, we created Pagoda’s name, identity, business system, signage and advertising.

A new kind of religion. A direct mail campaign introduced Pagoda in the marketplace. The goal was to entice people to convert to Pagoda's definition of a spa — a new religion, if you will.

A new kind of religion. To launch Pagoda, an advertising campaign was created to extend awareness and position Pagoda as the place for salvation in this world.

Worship your Mother. We created a Mother's Day campaign, which was extended in-store with ceiling danglers, counter cards and bud vase signage that presented the gift package offer.
Palmer

Schmidty’s
A desire to provide men with damn nice haircuts and manly rub downs led to a new identity, visual language and advertising for this no-frills barber shop.

A brochure just for men. We created a family of logos inspired by beer, sports and cigars, then translated these into a series of beer coasters with services and pricing on the reverse. The result is a brochure chock-full of testosterone.


Walking billboards. A line of sports jerseys feature the family of brand logos that serve as a trend statement to avid Schmidtheads as well as a uniform for staff.

Every guy needs a six pack. We created a print ad to establish awareness of a Schmidty's frequency package. Our design is simple, in line with the brand personality and integrates the message.
