TAHOEMADE is a lifestyle brand celebrating the beauty of Lake Tahoe and giving back to the community. Keeping with this spirit I have branded Tahoemade around its natural elements.
I created this Glow In The Dark graphic for the 2016 Snowglobe Music Festival. The theme this year was celebrating Lake Tahoe's roots.

Below are a collection of branding elements I created for Knickerbocker MFG. A brand built on passing the torch and keeping tradition alive.

I have tried to represent each of these cultures in the graphics below. Some capture the fonts of the 50's some encompass the graphic elements seen in war time propaganda etc...
