Introducing… Barbara Gergel

Barbar Gergel WebsiteBarbara Gergel is a very talented and recognized local stylist. From residential to landscape design, Barbara’s ability to mix styles, deep knowledge of the design elements and a clear understanding of her clients needs are evident in each of her projects. Barbara’s designs have always been characterized by the elegance of their lines and a sense of uniqueness. Her work is often transitional with a perfect blend of classic and contemporary elements.

We created a design which we feel exudes class, flair and elegance with the use of a swooping peacock feather, clean typography, metallic inks and a chartruse colour palette which has been used on business cards and a one-page website.

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.

Introducing… Edge Architecture

Edge Architecture Victoria BCWe cannot wait to share our most recent stationery and website package with you – Edge Architecture.

Founder of Edge Architecture Gaston Castaño [Maibc] came to Meade Design Group for an identity that would appeal to his design-conscious clientele. His company mantra? “The name EDGE recognizes the firm’s goal to provide a competitive edge to design practices that want to add value to their project deliverables”.

We went for it, with a bold lettering style and bleed that is most certainly eye-catching. The stationery was printed in four colours to maximize the punchiness of the Edge brand, and even features a die-cut to enhance the unique feature of the offset lettering within the logo. For more details go here.

Introducing… Samantha Dickie

Samantha Dickie LogoWe are very pleased with the outcome of this recently completed graphic and web-design project for local artist, Samantha Dickie.

Sam is a very talented sculptor and wanted a look that was sleek and simple, so as not to distract from her beautiful artwork. She also wanted something that would be appealing to the the art and design community, so it had to be oozing with style. Ultimately, we came up with this clean, typographical solution with elongated lettering and a unique, mirrored effect. The logo worked very well in all applications, and we were pleased to help her create a new website, pottery seal and business cards to get her noticed.

The New Look of 2011

Meade Design Group - The New Look 2011To celebrate the renewal of Meade Design Group we have created a new image for the business, one that embraces our old branding (with the repetition of the horse image and typography of our logo), but also symbolizes our growth and evolution with the use of the gradient and layering of patterns and forms.

We also warmed up our colour palette and softened the lines to better represent our warm and friendly working environment. Now that we have put so much work into our networking and accessibility, we wanted to reflect that in our image; we want to be perceived as professionals who are young, fun, and love what we do – design really is our passion!
