Hot off the Press: 2009 annual report for Central Carolina Community Foundation. The design complements the new brand identity we developed for CCCF in 2008 and takes it a step further with a strong emphasis on typography and hand-drawn lettering. A short-fold cover allows the logomark to be visible while reading the first half of the book — we used the extra space on the press sheet to create bookmarks, which will be used to raise awareness of specific areas of need: Dropout Prevention, Homelessness Prevention and Illiteracy.

Thanks to everyone at Central Carolina Community Foundation and special thanks to Tonia Cochran and JoAnn Turnquist for being such great collaborators.

CreateAthon client Preservation Trust of Spartanburg

Nonprofit Preservation Trust of Spartanburg recently launched Spartanburg Architectural Salvage, a retail store that caters to owners of older homes, DIYers and architects looking for period pieces salvaged from old homes and buildings. We were thrilled with the opportunity to work with these folks since salvaging these items keeps them out of the landfill. Plus, wouldn’t you want something original and authentic if you were fixing up an old house? Or even building a new one?

The first order of business: a new name and identity system, including a series of custom illustrations and three distinctive logos. The business cards doubled as hang tags.
