Who doesn’t love to sink their face into a padded circle and have all of the stress gently pushed and pulled from your body as you free-fall into a half-sleep, half-euphoric dream?
Bohemian Bodyworks is a local massage & henna business that you’d thank yourself for connecting with. This is the visual language we created for Valerie, the owner, and her therapists.

An incredible new living community in Ridgefield, Washington is evolving. Unlike any other area, Green Gables West (on the site of the 2010 Clark County Parade of Homes I might add) is a stunning neighborhood of build-to-taste homes, with more homes emerging every month. Here’s the story we’re telling, along with some design composites. The final direction is the top.
So Long to the Subdivision.
Welcome Back to the Neighborhood of Yesteryear.Just look at the word: subdivision.
Sub is all about being below — and Green Gables West is all about going beyond, even what you’ve hoped for. And division is all about separation — whereas our concept is already bringing together the things that matter: people, personality, and pride of place.
Welcome to the build-to-suit neighborhood of yesteryear—Green Gables West — one that is both connected and private; not just an area on a map, but a mosaic of homes where a diverse group of people become more than the sum of their hearts, creating the very fabric of their landscape. A community in which there are no clones, where your home is not only designed, but imprinted to mirror your heart, soul and lifestyle.
In fact, the award-winning builder of Green Gables West, Tamarack, has earned their reputation on going that second extra mile and doing the right thing, even when no one is looking. It’s like commissioning a piece of fine art. They are artisans in love with their craft.
In fact, the homes that are crafted here are all NAHB Green certified to bring you the airtight construction, energy savings and comfort you (and our planet) deserve—which says something about value for something rarely found in homes at twice this price.
Here, you’ll feel worlds apart, nestled in this enchanting Ridgefield hideaway, all the while knowing you’re just minutes from anywhere else you might need to be…not that you’d ever want to leave.
If this is starting to sound a little more like what you’re thinking, come out and see the real thing. The advantages of a home built to your own taste without the burden or expense of a custom home make this a treasure worth discovering. Because when you know exactly what you want your home to be, how you want it to feel and how you want it to live — you’ll live here.
The One-and-Only Green Gables West.
If you were home, you’d live here by now.*******

Bridgetown Dental in the St. Johns area of Portland was looking for a more approachable, progressive brand presence. The identity concept here is the first part of a more comprehensive plan we have to position the practice. Dr. Kaady is a phenomenal dentist by the way. I had a wonderful experience there…
Emerald Stone Masonry approached us to redesign their visual brand. This identity exploration was our first. We migrated to another direction for the final version, which we will post soon. For now, we thought we’d show you the initial concept.
