Alaska + Virgin acquisition
My role:
Art Director | Designer
The campaign:
During my time as Art Director for the Alaska Airlines account at Mekanism, Alaska dropped the bomb (a good bomb) on us that they decided to acquire Virgin. The result was a campaign called Different Works, that aimed to calm the frustrations of Virgin America lovers who had no f*ing clue why they were teaming up with the much less street-cool Alaska Airlines.
The idea was this: sometimes two things that you wouldn’t normally picture together produce extraordinary results.

My role:
Art Director | Designer
What I did:
First and foremost, the success of this campaigns visuals weighed on the type treatment. The goal was to create a layout that interacted simply yet dynamically with outdoor lifestyle-action photos in the background. I developed a diagonal grid with ample spacing, allowing imagery to shine through, and for new words to easily replace the tagline using the same system.

The project:
Giving a modern condo building in Dogpatch, SF a new identity. After working with the Butchershop team to establish what it was that was unique to this area and community within San Francisco, we went to work on naming and creating the narrative behind the brand- a narrative that’s rooted in Dogpatch’s industrial roots.

Finca Santa Teresa
My role:
Art Director | Designer
The project:
While Finca Santa Teresa was one of the worlds respected coffee growers, it lacked a noteworthy brand identity that spoke of the quality and authenticity of its passionate Panama origin. The result was a sophisticated, geographical design that stood out from the sea of hip coffee start-ups.

Client:
Fernet Francisco
My role:
Art Director | Designer
The project:
Fernet Francisco, a new amaro liquor that was in the works, came to Butchershop with hopes of a label design that could compete with industry giants like Branca. Although a common goals of designers creating a label is “make it stand out on the shelf” it rarely does because everyone is doing the same thing.
I ran with the wild personality of the two makers themself, and created Frankie, the literally in-your-face, dapper spokesman for the company. You can’t miss him if you tried. Pair that with bright colors not typically scene on the Fernet shelf, and you’ve got a brand that now sits amongst its peers as one of the top Fernet brands in the world.

Client:
San Francisco Giants
My role:
Art Director | Designer
The project:
The Gotham Club isn’t your grandpa’s baseball club— well actually it probably is. But it can also be yours. Its history is rooted in the Giants original name, the New York Gothams.
The SF Giants came to Butchershop to brand a very exclusive, high-end club among various corners of AT&T Park. Among the club venues were a bowling alley + game room, on-field bull pen, and private bar.
To keep the club’s authenticity, heritage rained the most important influence in the brands identity. This meant that a healthy dose of historical research had to be done before design decisions were made.
To introduce the club, I designed 2 custom mailers to send out to 10,000 season ticket holders, former players and VIPs. The mailer explained the origins of the name and timeline of the NY Gothams to SF Giants, and led you to a website where you could learn more and sign up for membership.

The Project:
Developing an identity for San Francisco’s newest district and largest redevelopment project in over a century.
To say the SF Shipyard had a rich history would be an understatement. Formally Hunter’s Point Naval Shipyard, it was important than the brand built would both honor the area’s storied, maritime past while laying the base for a new chapter.
The new logo for the Shipyard became the heart and soul of the area’s story- the iconic Hunters Point gantry crane— to some an eye sore— acts as the areas industrial icon. It felt only right to glorify it.
Included in this branding initiative was a fully interactive website, a leasing office, iconography, marketing collateral and a branding system set up for the release of future residences.

SP2
My role:
Art Director | Designer
The project
SP2 is San Jose’s most sought after communal bar and restaurant. They came to Butchershop for a complete identity before opening their doors, and we delivered everything from a their website to their bar coasters.
The soul of SP2 is communal and friendly. I made sure to remove elegance from my vocabulary on this one and create a raw, inviting persona that people could relate to.

Zuora
The project:
Ever think about how many business are switching their business model to a subscription platform? Chances are they are using Zuora to manage their logistics.
Re-branding a company as big as Zuora was no small feat. The enormity of their company required intensive research and top to bottom organizational exercises to get to a place were we could start fresh, and display them in a light more palatable to the public.
To do this, Butchershop flipped the script and told the story of a modern subscription business through the eyes of the subscriber.
Over the course of 6 months, I worked with the Butchershop team of copywriters and project managers to take a complex company model and make it refreshingly simple. A clean logo, subscriber-based imagery, inviting colors and a breezy illustration style worked together to show consumers how fun and simple it can be to switch your company to a subscription model.

AppDynamics
My role:
Art Director | Designer
The project:
AppDynamics, a data analytics company, had a new San Francisco office and dream of doing something special to it.
At the time the office had a full floor that was completely gutted, and 27 empty walls that Butchershop was tasked with designing- with only one guiding principal to go off of- that of the pixel.
Among the murals was halftone celebrities, pixelates ice cream cones and 3D phone booths, but the crowning glory was a massive mural that stretched from one end of the interior to the other, made of thousands of small stained wooden squares, that the BC team installed ourselves.
