THE ART

Edge Technologies Email BlastThis email blast was developed to unveil a new line of products for Edge Technologies. This was an html built email using some tables to maintain the appearance throughout different email clients.

Edgetechnologies dot comThis web site was developed for a bar feeder company located in St. Louis. The company was brand new and needed a web pressence to match their corporate identity. I devoloped this design to be clean, yet have a mechanical feel. I also developed the flash incorporated throughout the site. This site was built using a pure XHTML and CSS layout.

FBCSP dot comThis site was developed for a church located in St. Peters, MO. I wanted to create a bright dynamic site for members of the church to be a source of information. I used WordPress as the CMS and added many plugins for ease of use and the for the church staff to be able to keep the content updated.

Hydromat ISO LogoThis logo was created as a badge to show off, you guess it.. Hydromat’ s ISO certification. I used the companies existing logo as a starting point and incorporated some other elements. This was a simple vector piece done in Illustrator.

Hydromat Pop-Up BannersThree feet by seven feet tall banners were designed for display at trade shows for Hydromat. A deep red background color is used along with eye catching graphics to help draw customers into the booth.

Edge Technologies Pop-Up Banners Three feet by seven feet tall banners used by the bar feeder company to promote their line of bar feeders in trade shows. Dynamic photography and type treatments were used to develope these eye catching display pieces.

Windy City Whistle FlyerThis piece was a one page flyer designer to be handed out at a tradeshow. Hydromat was producing lead-free brass whistles to hand out to visiters to their booth. The whistle was manufacturing on two seperate machines and then screwed together to complet the assembly. This flyer was used to help explain the process while advertise each machines capabilities.

Hydromat EPIC R/T BrochuresIn 2006, Hydromat needed new brochures for their EPIC R/T product line of Machine tools. I created a layout infusing the complexity of the machines using a metal texture as the backbone and lots of photography to produce very dynamic pieces. There were a total of 5 brochures created for the line.

Terminus-stl dot comThis web site was built for a local branch of a multinational cutterhead producer. The site was a redesign built to revitalize the brand digitally. I used a simplified pallet to create a clean, yet techy feel. I also shot a lot of new photography for the products. This site was built using a hybrid HTML-table mix, along with CSS and some Javascripting.

DashThis illustration was done using oddly enough.. Adobe Illustrator. This was a fun piece I created to go in my living room when I moved into my new place. That was two years ago, and I still haven’t had the print made yet. Nevertheless it was a fun piece to create and if you are a dog lover it’s a real eye catcher.

ICON dot Hydromat dot comThe ICON web site was built for a new division and line of machine tools manufacturing by Hydromat of St. Louis. This site was built using XHTML and CSS. This site has a clean feel. Lots of white space give it an open feel, yet the content is tightly held in place in the center of the page.

Hydromat Christmas CardThese cards were developed for Hydromat to send to their customers for a Holidays greeting. The cards were to be Christmas cards, but not too Christmasy. This card was using Illustrator as a CMYK job with a metallic silver spot color.

Edge Technologies BrochuresThese product brochures are from the Edge line of bar feeders. Each was designed for a clean corporate feel with a machine-like feel. A double column layout was used to maximize the amount of information contained on a four page brochure.

Legacy LogoThe Legacy logo was developed for a Hydromat machine. The company has been in business for more than 30 years and during this time have developed new machines utilizing new technologies. The logo was used for their original machine design that put them on the map. The logo was designed to be sleek and, yet rigid.

VTEC Machine Tools dot comThis site was developed for an independent machine tool rep located in the Midwest. The photoshop work was completed by another designer and passed on to me. I created the site using a hybrid HTML, CSS, table technique. I also did a bit of flash animation for the home page to add a hint of dynamic style to the sites static content.

Rock SolidThe Rock Solid logo was created for fictional health and fitness company. The logo was designed to be powerful yet fluid. It was to stand out on any promotional pieces, letterhead, business cards, and product packaging. This logo is the first piece in the Rock Solid series of product labels.

CoolantThe first label in the Rock Solid line of fitness beverage and suppliment products. The coolant was a rehydration product, much like Gatorade, packed with nutrients and electrlytes to rejuvinate. The colors used are simple yet, eye catching. They were choosen to convey the feeling of coolness and refreshment.

FuelThis label was also designed for the Rock Solid series of fitness products. Fuel was the energy drink in the line. As with the other labels, a simple yet vivid color scheme was used to be dynamic and create the feel of energy.

SynthesisThis was the last label in the Rock Solid series. It was a design for a product package of Whey Protein, a protein supplement for bodybuilders. A selective duo-tone color scheme was used to keep it simple, yet dramatic.

Durr Email BlastThis was an email blast sent out for an industrial parts washer line of machines. The eMarketing campaign was called “The Inside Edge” and this email was one of many sent out to the companies customers. A simple header sits atop this html based email design, using typography and color as the main design elements.

LaylaAs with my other illustrations, Layla was a piece created for fun. Using a photo of my friends dog, I recreated the image completely in Illustrator to practice with the software. Unlike the Dash piece, I used a realistic pallet.
