FEATURED STORY

My 2019 Goals

With the rush of a new calendar year - and the energy that comes from taking a week off from work - I’m ready to dive into some new goals and challenges. This is going to be a pretty big year of change for the studio, as we slowly shift to a new model, but I’m excited to share what you can expect from us going forward, and take you along for the ride!

It’s nice to meet you.

An Enneagram Valentine ❤️ this year we wrote love notes to all of the Enneagram numbers. Valentine’s Day is so much more than a romantic holiday - it’s a chance to tell all the important people in your life (friends, business partners, neighbors, parents, siblings, customers, and clients) just how much they mean to you. To read the full love notes, head over to @enneagramforentrepreneurs. Feel free to screenshot and share!

This past summer, we had the honor of designing the packaging for @manhattanprojectbeer and working with the amazing Misty Sanford. Her dream was to create a beer can packaging system that would add to the ambiance of a dinner party as a compliment to classy wine label design. Instead of going with the typical loud and grungy beer designs we had been seeing in stores around Dallas, we eliminated color and instead created a grayscale labeling system to showcase each style and a linear illustration to give context to the name. I was SO excited to hear that it’s been spotted in @central_market and am dying to get my hands on it when I’m back in Dallas next month. Who’s up for a party?
