Your logo is the public face of your business, winking at potential customers. When someone sees your logo for the first time, they make snap judgements about what you have on offer and the kind of business you are running. What does your logo say about you? Is it accurate? Your Visual Identity is a cornerstone of your business, whether you like it or not. The logo should inspire confidence and accurately represent your business; a poor logo can even send customers to your competitors.
I design all things fit for print, be it business cards, postcards, books, brochures, exterior signs, murals or billboards. I can collaborate with web and app designers when the need arises.

Working with 3 Dots Design, we've designed brick and mortar retail environments, offices, trade shows and event spaces for hundreds of happy clients, with particular expertise in specialty cycling and running retail. The environmental graphics for these spaces serve two purposes: to inspire and inform. Your customer should feel comfortable and want to explore your store, whether or not they are looking for something specific. On the other hand, If a customer is after that one particular gizmo, your way-finding signs need to guide him or her directly to it without any assistance from staff. The goal is always to create an appealing space where customers feel comfortable, are engaged, encouraged to explore, and eventually make a purchase. Surprise and delight them, and they will be your customer for life.
Oversized wall murals, easy to read signage, and a combination of rustic wood and industrial fixtures create a store that is inviting and easy to navigate. Complete store design executed with 3 Dots Design.
"Dress Your Bike, Dress Yourself" was the tagline we developed to sell the idea that you can accessorize your bike as well as your body with Electra gear. This image shows the pop-up tradeshow version of Electra's store-in-store program ("The Personalization Station") and was designed to show retailers how an Electra branded section of their store could look. It worked pretty well--with 3 Dots Design we've rolled-out hundreds of "Personalization Station" kits customized for different retailers across the country.
