Remember the branding “before and after” contest I announced on August 4th … and the finalists we revealed on September 1st? Well, I’m thrilled today to declare the winner of our contest – Francine Viola! The results of our poll, as determined by our Zebra Report readers, were:
A love of subtlety drew Hanna Petros to create a brand that was classic in design with simple and natural elements. Hanna asked us to develop a brand that reflected her core values: community and ecology. We began our process by identifying color hues that were reminiscent of the “eco” movement – primarily green – […]
Melody Foreman wanted to incorporate her client closing gift – yellow tulips – into her custom brand. It was important to her that this signature element play a key role in the visual image her brand would present. Because she often works in Mukilteo, which is one of the ferry stops for the Washington State […]
Blue is a color you’ll often see featured in our brands. Not only is it the “favorite” color in America, the color blue is associated with many positive attributes (dependability, commitment, serenity, reliability), which is why it’s often a favorite when it comes to brands.

Powerful, memorable brands can be created for agents in any one of the eight design styles (Artistic, […]
Strong design details via the image of a stained glass window define our “Stained Glass” brand. Although the use of color in this brand is subtle, it is extremely effective. Because the image is a timeless one, the “Stained Glass” brand has a classic and elegant feeling. Whether you want to develop a completely custom […]
