This historic mid-century motor lodge renovation was a joint effort with Sector 3 Architecture and Good Work Architects. We conceived the experience and design strategy as “retro reimagined” — a contemporary interpretation of the destination hotel experience. The aesthetic pulls from iconic forms, colors and motifs while many new amenities are incorporated.

The redesigned property features a new lobby lounge, outdoor sunken fire pit, swimming pool, outdoor dining, event lawn, day-use amenities, airstream bar, bunk bed rooms, event hall, and indoor dining room.

These branding and marketing materials were created for a small architecture and environmental graphics studio. It include the logo design, identity standards, pitch decks, proposal design, website, and communications materials.

This interior branding project was developed as a way to communicate the USFS Region 6 recent brand refresh and updated mission to employees and visiting stakeholders. The agency's core values, history, partnerships, and broad scope of services within diverse Washington and Oregon forest regions are represented in a permanent exhibition across 6 floors of offices. The exhibit includes historic and contemporary photography, themed conference rooms, wall graphics, iconic illustrations, and room signage

With the offices located in a LEED Platinum building, many steps were taken to implement an equally environmentally sensitive graphics program as much as possible.

The signage was made from four species of central Oregon timber harvested by a logging industry partner as part of a forest rehabilitation and fire prevention project. The photography frames were made from reclaimed barn wood from central Oregon. Wallcoverings were made from a natural, bio-degradable material and zero-voc paint was used.

The conference room names were created to reflect the core values and each room is themed accordingly. In each room, a past project is showcased that relates to the room theme.

I worked with marketing Agency Maxwell PR on this signage project for a new grocery store. Using the visual identity and branding that Maxwell had developed, I worked with the design team to create several signage elements for the space. This signage not only orients visitors in the space, but also expresses the company’s “just what you need” brand through their simple, rustic design.
