Fontainebleau Las Vegas Resort Branding

Fontainebleau

you have arrived

Vibrant and invigorating, sophisticated yet seductive: Fontainebleau was coming to Las Vegas. The $2.9 billion, 4,000 room property emerging on the Las Vegas strip was to be a sister property of the iconic 1950s-era Fontainebleau Miami Beach. The emerging Vegas location needed a resort branding initiative that embodied the fast-paced yet boldly impressive spirit of Sin City, and we were just the people to do it.

Read more Working cohesively with every department of the hotel, we created a meticulously crafted suite of collateral and digital assets for the Fontainebleau’s approaching grand opening – all while paying careful attention to the procurement needs of an undertaking this extensive. With the objective of making stakeholders and sinners alike smile in admiration, the developed assets created a comprehensive look for the resort, designed to send an inviting vibration of high-end revelry through this electric city.

Drawing Attention

Innovation drives engagement, so what better way to engage than art and drawing. More than a simple coloring book, this booklet encourages customers to open their minds to creative engagement with technology. The design solution displays the sophisticated, sometimes stark, world of technology in a playful and accessible way.

We jumped at a chance to make something fun as an effective way to parallel the meeting of art and technology. Besides, who doesn't like going outside the lines when allowed to?

Cotton Council Global Summit Event Collateral Design

Cotton Council International

Innovation, Quality, Sustainability

Cotton, both wonder fiber and valued commodity, commands a global audience. Continued demand of U.S. cotton exports requires a dedicated effort in communication and innovation. For this reason, the National Cotton Council hosts a biennial summit, gathering industry leaders from all over the world to connect, learn, and build impactful relationships. Hosted from some of the most stunning resorts in the Western United States, the summit creates a beautiful, conscious platform for progress on multiple levels.

Read more Working closely with the Cotton Council International team, we’ve helped to develop their brand relationship with the Sourcing USA Summit for the past six years. The prestige and scale of the event requires over a year of strategic planning and execution. Unique color palettes, imagery and conceptual themes are developed to seamlessly promote the summit throughout all event collateral design work. From videos and invitations to registration booths and dinner menus – every piece leverages the natural beauty of cotton as a celebration of the industry and its continued growth.

A Signature Event

Built on quality and the unexpected, the initial touch point was a custom designed formal invitation, intended to pique curiosity in those who receive it and build their excitement for attending the event. Sophisticated details like custom format, an enticing opening sequence and an exclusive insert produced on 100% cotton paper embossed with the industry’s namesake plant set the stage for a truly notable summit.

London Gold – A Luxury Brand Experience

London Gold

Celebrate the Moment

There’s only one gift that can both take our breath away and breathe new life into our soul: exquisite jewelry. And while these artistic works stand out above the rest, a jeweler needs some extra help to do so. For London Gold, that extra help came in the form of us and a fresh brand experience.

Read more Already a trusted source for those defining moments along life’s journey, London Gold was seeking to grow their presence. Our role was to capture the awareness of young and old alike in those momentous stages of their relationships – from the moment he bends a knee, to the night they celebrate 25 years together. Every moment celebrated, London Gold is there with them.

The campaign weaves stories of connection, commitment and commemoration that the London Gold Experience provides. The work brings to life the unique duality of the diamond – at once both delicate yet enduring, whimsical yet alive with passion.

Delicate Sophistication

Celebrating any moment should be special. We designed a multi-platform campaign that keys in on the sense one should feel when shopping for a loved one. With subtle, soft elements to complement the products, abstract watercolor pieces in joyful hues set the tone for the brand experience. The fluid shapes and diffused edges work in contrast with the sparkling gemstones in each piece of jewelry.

The design concept is delicate and ethereal, mirroring the passion the featured rings spark, but practical enough to allow colors to be adjusted for the seasons.

Connected Harmony

Following the journey of life and love, the campaign brings together beauty and a sense of the moment. Soft black and white photography paired with vivid artistic details connect the luxury of fine jewelry to the comfort of everyday life.

LightStream – Developing a Brand Promise

LightStream

Lending Uncomplicated

A small startup with big ideas set out to disrupt the consumer finance industry. And disrupt it they did. The LightStream Loan – a fast turnaround, low-interest loan for people with good credit – quickly took off and was soon welcomed by industry giant SunTrust Bank. LightStream needed a partner to help position the brand as more than a typical lender.

Read more Lending Uncomplicated. We set the stage for the campaign’s multi-channel approach with this tagline and brand promise. A direct and transparent financial product requires marketing that is just that: direct, honest, and genuine. Bold color treatments complemented by clear, confident typography emphasize the pivotal moments when people’s dreams become reality.

Inspiring confidence, optimism, and enthusiasm, the work served as an effective conduit for LightStream’s brand promise – crafting the evolving story of lending that changes lives.

Cruise America – Travel Brand Management

Cruise America

It’s About time

The once blissful pairing of vacation and travel had become tenuous. Modern day travel evokes images of delayed flights, lost luggage, and cranky kids. For Cruise America, a pioneer in the RV rental industry, this mindset needed redirecting. In order to position the brand for the future, we found inspiration in the past – a time when things were, quite simply, simpler. By shifting focus from the process of renting a motorhome to the vacation experience itself, we were able to showcase the travel experience through the lens of the Cruise America difference: control of travel, convenience during travel, and better connections with friends and loved ones.

Read more Capturing authentic moments of travel via motorhome, a series of inviting vignettes weaves a compelling story of old-fashioned adventure combined with the freedom of convenient travel. At Cruise America, travel is vacation. The result was a powerful storytelling engine to help guide travelers worldwide, encouraging folks to turn every new travel experience into the adventure of a lifetime.

Iconic Travel is the Narrative
