Branding: Lifeline Children’s Services
Located in Birmingham, Alabama this nonprofit organization works to provide children around the globe with a hope and a future.

Web Site Design: Champion Restoration
Earlier in 2009, the folks at Champion Restoration gave us a ring to help them redevelop their web site.

After hearing about [...]

When the [...]

Branding: Hyde Park Student Ministry
This design is actually a screenshot that we developed during the branding process in the Fall of 2008. You can clearly see the new logo design that conveys an industrial, metallic, factory look and feel for the Student Ministry of Hyde Park Baptist Church in Austin, TX.
This motif was further encouraged by using it [...]
