THE NITTY GRITTY
Having operated the studio at different times on both coasts, The Local Brand Co. offers a forward mindset for every project. We use a West Coast optimism balanced with an East Coast analytical approach. Our process begins with dialogue, market analysis and discussions about your branding concerns. Next is the creative process of blending all the target elements together to form the visual language. Finally, production and implementation. With the new visual vernacular in place, your unique brand identity is complete, translating into increased media recognition and sales.
A pocketful of genius. Coolness in a box. A Mid-Century Modern education in 26 remarkably easy lessons. The studio’s Modernist Alphabet Flashcards were inspired by California’s MCM style. They were featured on design-centric sites Dwell, Design Within Reach and HGTV. The cards retailed at the Smithsonian Cooper-Hewitt Design Museum and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. The cards were originally created for my then 7yr old daughter to teach her about modernism.
Forget A is for Apple.
B is for Bauhaus is where it's at.
