Beat the Chill with Red-Hot Savings!

Postcard announcing the Annual Winter Sale at JD Madison. The focus of the sale was on floor models, so the silhouettes of stacked furniture and accessories convey the immediacy of taking items home on the same day.

Focus the Nation Identity


Focus the Nation is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to providing opportunities for community education on clean energy, sustained engagement with elected officials, networking youth initiatives, and developing clean energy leaders. Their branding needed to be inspirational, serious (yet spirited) and focused on governmental participation and clean energy. A lot to pack into a single image, but we think we succeeded.

The Holiday Big Reveal

DBD+A put together this extensive marketing campaign for the Pearl District’s Holiday Big Reveal window display event. The marketing pieces included posters, window decals, handout cards, magazine and newspaper ads, and even streetcar panels.

Focus the Nation on this Website

We just completed this Website design for Focus the Nation in partnership with Herman Consulting. Focus the Nation is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to providing opportunities for community education on clean energy, sustained engagement with elected officials, networking youth initiatives, and developing clean energy leaders. The site is currently in beta, but should be fully operational soon! We also designed the logo and branding for this great organization.
