Holiday Season Gifts That Bloom!

Give The Gift That Blooms with a Bloom Yoga Studio gift card! Bloom Yoga Studio wanted to create professional and environmentally friendly gift cards in lieu of paper certificates. They found ones that are reusable and sustainable (similar to credit cards) with an online printer. It's an affordable decision that increases the visual impact of the gift itself.

YELLmedia, Inc. designed the card and gift carrier to follow their current brand standards and added a sense of humor and fun to it - just as gifts should be. Tying into the companies name "Bloom Yoga Studio" to the gift itself "Give The Gift That Blooms". Who would not feel good about giving a gift that gives like that? When the gift recipient takes out the gift card to cash in their gift there is a secret message underneath that says "Enjoy!" hoping to bring the happy impact home.

New Year New Look!

JPL Records is a local recording studio with a magnificent control room with all of today's latest gear and cutting edge technology. Unfortunately, their logo was not as cutting edge so they wanted to shake things up.

YELLmedia, Inc. researched the many other sound recording studios as background research and worked closely with JPL Records to come up with a great logo. The blue is a common business color that has levity, while the gradations of the blue color are more playful. The bars in the back of "JPL" are a graphical represention of sounds waves and the letters "JPL" are shaped in a fluid motion to continue the feeling of motion and give a high tech edge. Hopefully this will be a great start to a new year full of lots of new business!

2008 ADGA for a Magazine Website Design

Royal Couture

Royal Couture is a new clothing store & line which will be opening in 3 Chicago Area malls before the years end. YELLmedia, Inc. helped develop the name and brand identity. Colors were chosen for a hip unisex appeal. The logo was crafted using pull out elements that may be used in subsequent branding on clothes, accessories, purses, shoes, etc.

The JET Set

JET Campus is a not-for-profit extending educational services to college students. They have another branch that is for professional networking. They required a website and a logo. Their professional branch also had a dated logo.

YELLmedia, Inc. redesigned both the campus and professional logos to bring them up to date and also to create a common link between the two company branches. The "JET" in the logos with the icon both compliment each other while the campus logo is brighter and the font treatment less formal to appeal to college students.

Nest Home Staging

Nest Home Staging is a business that specializes in staging your home for resale or home redesign. They jumped ahead and had a website designed and in place when they decided to back track and do their logo. Though slightly backwards, this reverse process required trying to match a logo to an already established design. Color requirements already existed. It also required thinking of future applications for the logo i.e. signage, business cards, etc.

YELLmedia, Inc. designed the logo with the above in mind using existing color schemes and incorporating elements for the company name and business into the logo i.e. the nest and the "sold" sign.
