Secondary marks and illustrations for @eatatlittleds. Any guesses on the species of bird?

This past week Owen and Mindi of @ashevilleproper

This past week Owen and Mindi of @ashevilleproper had their soft opening and launch of @eatatlittleds. We had the pleasure of working with them the past few months to develop their #restaurantbranding, messaging and collateral. This sweet little space can be found in North Asheville away from the hustle and bustle of downtown. Go check it out, the food is delicious. #atlasbranding #ashevillerestaurants #avlrestaurants #avltoday #restaurantbrandingagency #menudesign #menudesigner #restaurantdesign #restaurantdesigner #foodbranding #restaurantinterior #retaildesign #womeningraphicdesign #brandingagency #avldesign #avldesigns #ashevilledesign #ashevilledesigner

It's canning day @editbeer! If you live near Raleigh or Durham go check them out.

We worked with Edit Beer to develop their #brandidentity and #packagingdesign system for their flagship beers.

The can design features vintage collage compositions inspired by the names and unique stories behind each beer. We went antiquing to find old issues of magazines and print ads from an era when art and copy went hand-in-hand, painstakingly concepted and crafted.

This year instead of sending out a holiday card, we decided to illustrate a series of #risograph prints. Since we're in the business of #branding for #foodandbeverage we used this opportunity for shameless #selfpromotion and to design something we wanted to see on our walls.

This series of prints - breakfast, lunch, dinner and appetizers were printed by the good folks over at @risolve. We couldn't be happier with the unique and bright color combinations and salty texture that happens through this unique form of printing.

Thank you to all of our clients and strategic partners that helped make 2022 one of our best yet! We are so appreciative of you and the work you let us craft every day.

Sharing some still lifes today from our #productph

Sharing some still lifes today from our #productphotography shoot of the Lavender Cofffee #packagingdesign work we completed in the Fall.

In our process art directing this shoot, we shared moodstyling inspiration with the client and created a shot and props list. We tried to keep the props and styling budget at about $250 for flowers, stonework, cloth, etc. We kept the layouts more minimal and natural so the colors and calmness in the packaging popped and played well in the different natural environments.

We recently completed a #branding #packagingdesign

We recently completed a #branding #packagingdesign and #ecommerce experience for our clients Lavender Coffee Boutique based in Denver, Colorado. They wanted to craft coffee branding that felt super luxurious and calming. We worked on a custom, editorial typemark that contrasts nicely against a purple-hued, original Colorado landscape we painted to make each bag feel like a piece of art to display on your kitchen counter.

We had a blast creating the branding and packaging for Lavender Coffee Boutique! We took a tactile approach and painted a few original oil landscapes for the coffee bags to give a crafted, calming feel.

#happybirthday team Atlas!
Today we have the honor of celebrating 13 years in business. In some ways it feels like it's been ages and in others, just a blink of an eye.

We're not the best at slowing down to reflect on progress, but today it's humbling to see this business that Dean and I started out of our tiny apartment in South Asheville grow into something that has been able to reach so many. We get to do, what we do every day because of our amazingly talented crew of left and right brained humans–designers, developers, photographers, client managers, finance managers, and the list goes on. We are also so grateful to all of our clients and friends that have trusted us with collaborating on building their businesses through their brands. We love y'all!!!

Ok, so I'm officially extra cheesy now! Enjoy this little trip down memory lane. And also, we get to celebrate this birthday with one of our favorite people @dangrettadesign. Happy Birthday to you friend!

With love and gratitude,
Lisa, Dean and the Atlas crew

The gangs all here! Small Batch Series release for @gingersrev. They won't release the fig and vanilla until Nov. 18th so stay posted.

With this series, they wanted to make sure the design was quick to update for their seasonal needs so we mimicked their main branding and designed something with only a few sections that need to be altered or switched to so we can time it with the seasons.

Enjoying some pumpkin spice in our alcoholic ginger beer with this 4-pack design for @gingersrev.

The #packagingdesign for their Small Batch Series is a more refined, simplified approach to their packaging so we could turn the illustrations around quickly and streamline the series. It helps balance the very detailed nature of their flagship beers that feature unique band characters and patterns.

The #candesign work we did for Edit Beer features

The #candesign work we did for Edit Beer features their first three flagship beers. In the theme of "edit" we rummaged several antique shops to find old Holiday and TIME magazines to cut out photo and edit our collage compositions. Collage isn't something we've seen done in brewery branding so we wanted to stand out a bit with this approach.

Each type of labelling or can artwork we plan to do will take on a new medium - we've explored TV with the growlers that we'll share later this week.

The #logodesigns were loosely inspired by Pink Pearl erasers.

Thanks to @highfivecoffee for providing the matcha to us for this shoot.
