Last Sweet Drops of Summer — Seedhouse News Fall 2021

“Live in the sunshine. Swim in the sea. Drink the wild air.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson

We’ve been taking Ralph’s wise advice and lapping up the end of summer. All the while creating awesome work.
The seasons are changing and so are we all. We are excited to help clients realize their change too.

A few new projects to check out:

Angelic Bakehouse Refreshed Branding & Packaging Refresh

3 years after our initial brand and packaging design, we discovered opportunities to make the packaging work harder. We dug in and brightened the colors, modified the communication, and let more of the product show. Small steps that make a big impact on shelf.

Wild Fork Store Design with Pinpoint Collective

Straight off the heels of refreshing their logo, Wild Fork tapped us to help them roll out their brand across many touchpoints including their stores, which are expanding nationally. We worked with the awesome folks at PinPoint Collective to create a store prototype, signage solutions and how to make it all work across different structures.


Outside of Seedhouse

When not at work, you can find us on a boat! We’ve been lucky to sail Blue Moon out of Wilmette harbor. Using Baha’i Temple as your landmark doesn’t suck.

Happy End of Summer! Be well. Drink in the Sun. Keep in touch. From Team Seedhouse
