Cowichan Valley Arts Councils is a not-for-profit arts organization that provides creative spaces and community development through arts-based programming. This Gallery and cultural hub is the ideal environment for artists and community to share, fully explore, and realize their potential. Swag Design Factory updated the brand identity and created a visual language that we incorporated into CVAC's digital space. The extensive use of member's artwork to create the visual components re-inforces CVAC's identity as a space for Art.

Our aim was to enable the viewer to explore the digital space in a manner that mirrors the traditional experience of physically visiting the gallery. The wide array of available Exhibits, Talks, Courses, and News items are easy to see, navigate, and experience.

Since this year was full of challenges and was the 50th Anniversary of the CVAC's Fine Arts Show - we created a Virtual Exhibit which invites the community to view the art, share their thoughts in a guestbook and participate by voting for their favourite piece of art for The People's Choice Award. It was important that we preserve the public engagement component of CVAC's position in the community - we feel that this was achieved.

Elysia has just released her first single! This song is about the ending of a relationship and beginning of embracing memories. We photographed Elysia in a way that creates emotion and movement— as memories do. We created a single scroll web page to promote her new single on all of its platforms and highlight any upcoming shows.

Listen to her new single on all streaming platforms, follow her at @elysia.music

Amazing Chef and good friend of ours, Dawn at @doucediner in North Vancouver needed to adapt to the current situation. She came up with the tasty free-range chicken - we designed and installed an online ordering system for her restaurant. She's selling out every Thursday thru Sunday!

Revisting past brand work! We love working through branding projects as thouroughly as we can to create multiple identities that all connect the message to the brand effectively. This project was about adaptable equipment and adventures for people living with disabilities. Allowing them to explore places they wouldn't be able to go in day to day life.
We focused on parts, tracks, bright colours and graphics connecting with the spark of excitement that is ignited in users!

As a studio, we have a great appreciation of the arts. Naturally when the Cowichan Valley Arts Council was in need of a bit of a brand update we were more than happy to jump on board. This is a sample of social media content advertising an upcoming show in the gallery. More to come about this branding project!

Healers Carla and Mark are the heartbeat of Anima Mundi.
We worked with them to create a new visual identity and website inspired by nature and ancient symbolism.
We created a custom word-mark constructed using timeless modern letter forms. To complimented the word mark we layered hand-crafted symbols and patterns inspired by the sacred work and ancient traditions of Anima Mundi's work.
The versatility of the branding allowed us to create an untraditional, structured approach to their website which established a brand identity that is earthy, inspiring, unique, deep and welcoming: @animamundi.life

There are projects that make us swoon. This is one of them!
We love knowing the work we do can have a positive impact on people and the organizations helping make lives better. Working with the innovative & caring people of Kiwanis Village Nanaimo was a wonderful opportunity for us to have a meaningful impact in the community.
One of the main objectives for this project was to focus on Joy & shifting the mindset surrounding care for older adults.

We love designing for passionate enterpreneurs and who doesn't love a bath bomb in the evening- so Mini Bomb was an easy choice. Logo and business card design as one of our smaller packages. Good design should be accesible to everyone... even if it's a simple black and white take. #logodesign #branding #update #design

Blue Coast Metallurgy & Research

We've finalized our logo with Blue Coast this week. Working with the gentlemen behind this thriving company has been an incredible experience. We will be creating an entire brand roll-out and this is the first step in kicking off the re-brand. We've continued with the concept of a lighthouse which they were originally using. Blue Coast is a beacon of efficiency and quality in their industry and their logo needed to represent that. We've simplified the original artwork concept and created a professional industrial approach to a dated logo. The colour palette is modern and youthful- while respecting the industry they are a part of by keeping it professional. The logo comes in a stacked option and black and white version to accommodate other platforms. #logodesign #branding #update #design #identity #logo #design #graphicdesign #logodesigner #logos #designer #graphicdesigner #creative

We had the opportunity to design the brand identity for Avacena, a new outdoor seaweed bathing experience company on Vancouver Island. The identity uses visual elements based on seaweed and water. These elements express a feeling of life force, the mystery of the ocean and the healing powers of seaweed.
