Need a
Hometown
Handbook?
Real problems. Creative solutions.
Problem:
A small town grew so fast, the answers couldn’t keep up.
As Bluffton grew, residents had more questions about how their town works, and the information was scattered across departments.
One guide, written for everyone.
We researched, wrote, and designed the Town of Bluffton Resident Resource Guide: 24 pages of plain-language answers, fact-checked by every department and illustrated in a vintage style that fits the Town’s character. It turns the workings of Town Hall into something any resident can find and trust.
Solution:
Problem:
One museum, four brands, no common thread.
Over time, the museum’s sub-brands had drifted apart, and visitors couldn’t tell they all belonged to the same place.
A single identity that ties it all together.
We refreshed the museum’s look to feel classic and refined, then found the visual thread that unites all four brands. From there, we carried it through everything patrons see, from exhibit panels and maps to T-shirts and member stickers.
Solution:
Problem:
The brand was selling them short.
The organization was well respected in the community, but its name and materials didn’t reflect that standing or explain what it does.
Building a bridge, starting with the name.
We renamed it Bridge House of Beaufort, after its role between treatment and independent life. Then we built everything around that name: a logo, the website and its copy, privacy-first illustrations, local search strategy, and print materials for referral offices.
