they’re up

They’re up on the wall and Salts Cure is up and running. We went over the weekend for brunch and it was delish. Fav was the smoked albacore appetizer.

Canele Menu Board

Finally got around to chalking up the menu board. I used liquid chalk which looks better, is easier to apply but close to impossible to remove. Hopefully they won’t need to change the items anytime soon.

Salt’s Cure Wall Photography

I was recently commissioned to come up with an idea for the wall art for Salt’s Cure, a butcher shop/restaurant set to open sometime next month. Had a lot of fun with this. Took a little trial and error finding the right size grains of salt and making the stencils so they would impress a clean imprint. I decided to go with the 3 animals they cure the most. These shots will each be blown up and hung across the main wall.

Rebranding and packaging of Peter and the Wolf

I recently designed this double CD (English and Mandarin) of Peter and the Wolf, a classical music children’s CD in which animals represented by different instruments take a musical journey. The story is narrated by notable names such as Bill Clinton and Sophia Loren. Peter and the Wolf had to be completely rebranded so I went with a modern title treatment and color pallet that matched the feel of the forest without being too dark. Such a fun project. Ruel Pascal did an amazing job with the illustrations.

Furry cards fur you

I snagged some fur from my creative neighbors James and Moritz. They love using faux fur for all kinds of projects/costumes so I thought it would be fun to use on some holiday cards.

Classical Geniuses

This card was a great exercise in content vs. space – two addresses plus all information had to also be in Mandarin. Thank God there’s two sides to a card! Although I designed the logo, the branding/look of Classical Geniuses had not yet been created and a website was simultaneously being designed so to ensure everything looked cohesive down the line, I kept it as simple as possible. Classical Geniuses is a company focused on introducing the arts to children. Working with a pre-existing wireframe, I also designed their Website

Salt’s Cure

Finally got my hands on the actual printed cards I designed a while back. Thanks to Kari Dyas of TwoUponTen for doing such a gorgeous job on the letterpress and to Chris and Zak for going along with my change of mind on the logo/branding (I originally designed a slightly different logo). Salt’s Cure is a new company that makes all kinds of delicious cured meats.
