K9 Scoop Website Redesign

Another fun project for 1-888-K9 SCOOP! We were asked to redesign the current website and improve functionality. We used the same whimsical branding and icons that we had created for the first site. Then we added a little bit more craziness to really help bring the brand home.

World Collab Illustration

This is a Collaborative Illustration with no purpose other than to be experimental form. I have been following the design on Abduzeedo for awhile and I saw this as an opportunity to work on my skills and get out of the corporate norm for a bit. I took the time to make this into a 1920 x 1200 desktop wallpaper, click the link below to download.

PIE Wood Fired Pizza Joint

THAIN was commissioned by two entrepreneurs to help them develop a brand for for PIE a new "wood fired pizza joint" in Barrie, Ontario. We wanted to develop a brand that would stand out with unique colours and a very minimal design that leaves everything to your imagination.

We approached the project by doing the exact opposite of the major pizza franchises no heavy gradients, no exciting movement, just plain PIE. The brand was heavily influenced by 1970's graphic covers and designs.

The Queens - Website Design

The Queens wanted to update there online image and promote the Bar / Dance club in a new light. I approached the project first by wanting to make sure the 150 year old building used its longevity as the strength of the brand. So I started by hand drawing a lot of the ornaments on the Queens Hotel sign and making sure they were in the same Art Deco form. Then I created a lot of the pieces on the computer using the same basic ornamentation. The result is a website that brings a lot of the same feel as the 150 year old Queens Hotel.

Georgian College Auto Show - Car Wrap

We were asked to create a unique car wrap design for the Annual Georgian College Auto Show's promotional car. We came up with a Frank Miller-esque scene of downtown Barrie being destroyed by the Georgian College Auto show. We had so much fun making this and vectorizing ourselves and downtown Barrie.

The first slide shows the photos we took and then the vectorized versions that Alex did. Then we put it all together and laid it out onto the car template and the results were pretty amazing.
