LMD™ Jano Graphics Ad

Jano Graphics, a printing company based of the west coast, approached LMD in need of an advert that would not only communicate their quality printing services and brand but also appeal to a diverse audience.

LMD’s solution for this printing company was to highlight their services though imagery. We took the opportunity to get to know more about this printing company and their team by having a photo shoot of their headquarters, this allowed for the imagery to truly represent the uniqueness of this business. We added graphical elements, the talking bubbles, to host wording that describe the business and we infused the imagery and graphics with vibrant colors to demonstrate the color quality that Jano Graphics provides.

The overall theme of the updated piece was to demonstrate the customer’s impression of Jano Graphics and to highlight their quality printing services.

LMD™ ThinkCure! Awareness Ad

One of LMD’s goals is to be able to give back to the community by using our skills and by doing what we love most, designing. With this in mind, we have been working with organizations and programs dedicated to helping others.

One of our most recent collaborations has been with the Official Charity Of The Los Angeles Dodgers, ThinkCure! A non-profit organization dedicated to raise funds for research to cure different types of cancers. We had the opportunity to design this season’s new advertisement, which is published in several LA Dodger editorials, such as the 2011 Los Angeles Dodgers Year Book and official MLB Play bill.

This particular design titled, “friendly reminder,” was inspired by the idea of a string tied to one’s finger, to remind us that there are others who need our help. This concept along with a touch of dodger spirit resulted in an eye-catching advertisement which is expected to inspire good hearted dodger fans to contribute to ThinkCure!’s great efforts.      

We at LMD were absolutely delighted to help this organization and to work along side their hardworking team. For more information on how to contribute to cancer research visit: ThinkCure!

LMD™ Binty Nurses Inc. Identity

Binty Nurses Inc. main goal is to provide care to clients in their home, assisted living, nursing home, or hospice. They came to LMD looking for an identity revamp that could upgrade them from their current dated look. 

We approached this identity by visually communicating their companies’ tag line “Nurses with Heart”, by doing so we were able to focus our efforts on the iconography to guarantee a one of a kind mark.

Within the mark, the heart has been re-stylized to house the letter “B” and in the background we included a loose representation of the letter “N”. We utilized two well known medical symbols to tie in the services portion of the company. The name has been given a tall type face that allows legibility for both name and the tag line. We were able to strengthen the mark by creating a rectangle housing system where the icon and type live. Lastly the color palette helps reinforce a medical and calm feel, which also allows for a pleasant read. 

LMD™ Tang Gang Music Group Identity

Graphic design has its different avenues and here at LMD, we always look forward to opportunity to develop Identities and Brands. Being able to figure out a solution for telling a story or message through a symbol always puts our creativity and conceptualizing to the test.

For this particular project, we had the opportunity to work with up and coming funk band The Tang Gang. They came to us looking for a mark that could very well represent their groovy or in this case ‘Tangy’ sound.

The direction that was chosen explores an organic approach. The characters have been customized to maintain a certain looseness while at the same time reflecting on the characteristics of type that was used in the 70’s funk era. The T and G have been used to hold all of the characters together which allows the mark to stand alone and bold.

LMD™ ‘Homegrown Comedy Show’

LMD had a great time developing the art concept for Homegrown Comedy Night. It was only proper to create a custom type face and illustration to tie in the theme from the ‘ground up’. From the illustrative weed to the not so accurate LA-scape we had a blast creating the artwork and showcasing our ‘Locally Sourced Comics’.
