  Project 543 tells the story of unique spots across North Carolina we hope will become some of your favorite places. Why 543?

So CAN paired with Harvard Press to challenge designers to redesign their favorite book covers. Here are three that I designed…

This is a fun little project I did for one of my co-workers. She got married on New Year’s Eve and also works with me on Tourism and Project 543. So she just wanted something with some fun type.  

This year LGA was asked to work with AAF Charlotte to help promote the local annual ADDY show. I worked with Margaret Bond and came up with the creative for the show. We also worked with the AAF to determine how and where the show would be. We toured a lot of the venues in Charlotte and found none nicer and more beautiful that the new Mint Museum Uptown. This helped add to our concept. We think that Art Directors and Copywriters have to go through a lot to create…

Here’s this year’s design for Fight Night for Kids. It’s a great event that benefits children charities around Charlotte. This year they returned to more traditional boxing for the event. So the designs took a more nostalgic and fun approach reminiscent of the old boxing posters of yesteryear.
