Imagine the Future Campaign

2010 Laurelhurst Auction BannerDBD+A designed all of the marketing and promotional campaign components for the Laurelhurst School Auction + Party, including posters, banners, t-shirts, buttons and the official website. The various pieces were very bright and cheerful, and really caught your eye when walking around the school! The beautiful t-shirt screen printing was donated by Ivy Studio. Click the thumbnails for larger versions.

Not all advertising has to be full-page to make an impact. Take for example these two quarter-page and sixth-page ads for Wilfs restaurant that make some noise with breaking the advertising budget. They’re small, but still have plenty of impact. Contact us today to help you with your advertising plans, big and small.

Holidays in the Pearl, Part Deux

PDBA Holiday Pearl Pass

It’s almost that time of year again. Time to deck your halls with Holiday advertising and marketing materials. Here’s two of the items we designed for the Pearl District’s 2nd Annual Holidays in the Pearl. We enjoyed putting together this branding for the event that is both bright and modern, and a little bit retro! Be on the lookout for posters, ads and more as the event gets under way. And make sure you pick up your Pearl Pass–it’s your card for special holiday savings at more than 75 Pearl District businesses.
