Here’s bit of my award-winning ‘mastery:’ • BRANDING – logos, stationery, packaging, signage, menus, etc; • CPG PRODUCT PRESENTATION – branding, packaging, catalogs, POS/displays, photography, advertising, trade shows, retail fixturing and shop design, etc; • PRINT COLLATERAL – brochures, MARCOM, posters, magazines, calendars, newsletters, books, etc; • FINE ART & DECOR – coastal/nautical/marine photography, custom vintage photo art, charts and maps, custom product developement, etc; • DESTINATIONS AND EVENTS – logos, branding assets, publications, posters, brochures, advertising, etc. In six years of architecture school (Univ of Mich) what I really learned was the DESIGN PROCESS. Including a year’s worth of extra creative/design electives. It’s the process I love and have honed for nearly a half-century now... My design thinking can help you solve creative problems in many areas. I DO KNOW JACK ...
