Introducing… Chanone Smith

Chanone SmithCreative Director Chanone Smith oozes class and sophistication in everything she does. Of course, she needed a fashion forward identity and stationery package to reflect that.

Inspired by fashion institutions, this has to be one of our favourite print jobs yet. The simple yet bold ‘C’ mark with the missing fragment is memorable and elegant. Her wordmark is no different, and places emphasis on the ‘Chanone’ to encourage clients to call her by her first name. An organic, animal print inspired pattern creates visual texture and interest against the main, crisp white background linking the stationery pieces together and adding another level of detail to her package. Custom stickers to seal the envelopes, metallic foils and a velvety laminated finish add tactile impressions to this stunning identity.

Introducing… Michelle Morelan

Michelle Morelan Print DesignMichelle is a fellow designer that we already knew and loved, so when she approached us to design a new identity for her including logo, stationery, social media and website, we were thrilled.

Embracing Michelle’s personality and aesthetic, we created an identity that was warm, modern and clean – yet natural. Michelle Morelan Design is known for it’s West Coast Contemporary and nature-inspired interiors, as well as stunning renderings. The reflected ‘Double M’ used in her mark has been well received as both a bold, modern statement, and as evoking the natural reflections in the lakes and oceans Michelle experienced throughout her life living on the West Coast. This mark lends itself prefectly to creating gemoetric patterns and coupled with the taupes and charcoals we chose, fits Michelle’s style perfectly.

Introducing… TD Swansburg

TD Swansburg Website

Another reason Meade Design Group is considered the ‘Designer to the Designers’: We have recently completed Vancouver and Victoria-based interior design firm, TD Swansburg’s website. We worked closely with founder and principal designer, Teresa Ryback on revamping her online presence to suit her aesthetic.

The addition of a brand new style of menu, soft gradients, subtle animations, and tons of content allowed TD Swansburg to showcase their designs in a whole new way. And the best part? The website was built using a content management system, so Teresa is able to edit and update the website text and photographs herself – including the integrated mini-blog ‘Chronicles’

Small Space, Tight Timeline, BIG Impact!

The Hudson Victoria BC Interior Design Meade Design Group is proud to introduce one of our recent interior design projects at The Hudson Building in Victoria BC.

An international tech company was in need of a suite where their executives could stay in the city without the need to book a hotel. The requirement was to design a home away from home on a short time line.

The executives for this company are mostly men and the inspiration was a masculine lodge blended with mid century modern influences.

Rust oranges, warm wood tones and geometrics add personality to this small space. For accessories we went for a mix of tribal and industrial elements.

Please visit the blog to see more photos and information. This project is also featured within the /showcase/”>’Showcase’ section of our Interior Design Gallery.

Introducing… Meg De Candia

Meg Decandia Purse DesignThis is quite possibly our most fashion forward logo yet.

We were thrilled when international handbag designer Meg De Candia asked Meade Design Group to help her re-brand herself with a new logo, business cards, and an invitation/brochure design.

We wanted to create a look that would hold it’s own against heavy-weight brands such as Calvin Klein, Michael Kors, Balenciaga and Kate Spade. Not to toot our own horn, but we think we did with this clean but edgy logo with stong diagonal lines, juxtaposed directions and stacked typography. The logo also lent itself to a stunning use of repetition with her images and a beautiful custom pattern that was used inside the business cards and layered onto the image at the back of the brochure with a detail shot of the gorgeous hides she uses in her designs.
