Samples of Our Work
Most of the samples below, and most of those linked to this page, originally appeared in print. The sample Web pages either appear on other organizations' Web sites or were especially created to provide information and serve as samples of our work.
Designs such as some of the logos do not appear in color because they were originally created for black and white reproduction. The sample newsletter (link at right) was created to use two colors. Sample display ads were designed for black and white reproduction.
You will find a more detailed explanation of our philosophy, services, and rates in our printed brochure, which you can order by clicking on the "Guestbook" button above. We print the brochure to order on a 1200 dot per inch laser printer that can output camera-ready artwork for reproduction.
Please explore these samples—and be sure to look at the other resources available on this site. Many thanks.
Logos Designed for Customers
All of the sample logos below were designed for print, but can easily be adapted for the World Wide Web. We usually design a logo as part of a larger project, such as a letterhead or brochure. If you would like to discuss a logo project, however, we offer complete service at reasonable prices.
