just the facts please

Two page data sheets can be an engineers dream and a designers nightmare — fill up the pages with facts, photos, charts and graphs. Making all of that detailed information look appealing is a challenge – convincing clients that white space is a good thing is a reward.

I love paper!

This over sized post card was designed to announce yet another paper merchant marriage – and to celebrate this wonderful new paper that is now being offered in the Pittsburgh area. I just LOVE paper, so I really enjoyed this opportunity. I think it is just beautiful. Too bad the web is for viewing only - you’re missing out on a great ‘touchy-feely’ session!

dare to go bare!

IMx technologies was launching a ‘cool’ product. This environmentally friendly product produces cups that hold their contents temperature without burning (or freezing) your hand – no need for sleeves! For their first trade show we created this fun X style display. These fabric panels are interchangeable – so you can have fun moving them around and easily replace them one at a time – saving time and money when there is a need for change. (Plus the play on X in the product name is always fun!)
