Role — Art Direction, Logo + Branding, Screen Printing

Client — Usibelli Coal Mine

Agency — Fairbanks Brand Studio

Year — 2019

Heat and energy is an important industry and part of life in The Last Frontier. As the largest supplier of coal in the state, Usibelli Coal Mine created an energy company, Aurora Energy Solutions, that used wood products as easy, sustainable solutions for heating the home.

 

They approached us needing a brand refresh to make a bold entrance to an already saturated market. The result was a clean, modern logo that thrived in its own ecosystem to elevate and recognize the brand.

SHOWROOM INSTALLATION MURAL 

​

We used hand-illustrated elements over halftone photos to create this custom mural for Aurora Energy's showroom. It was designed to portray an indoor and outdoor use example for their newest product, kiln-dried firewood.
