Building a Brand Studio for Fairbanks
Known as the remote Gateway to the North, Fairbanks has unique challenges when it comes to forward-thinking design. Being a community-driven town, locals prefer to support a plethora of flourishing small businesses vs. larger chains and corporations. I noticed much of the design was outdated, making these important local spots also feel behind and overlooked.
Fortunately, I've had the privilege to work with two of the most creative and talented Alaskans I've ever met. Together we started Fairbanks Brand Studio, a multidisciplinary agency that focuses on modernizing brands and strengthening the community, introducing cutting edge design to a place that needed it.
The result of this teamwork was an adaptable brand studio full of life and a team equipped with the resources and confidence to get to know the amazing people of Fairbanks and push their brands forward.

University of Alaska
Museum of the North
Role — Art Direction, Design, Screen Printing
Client — UAF Museum of the North
Agency — Fairbanks Brand Studio
Year — 2019
University of Alaska's Museum of the North is home to a plethora of impressive artifacts, specimens, and collections downstairs that the public has access to, but is unaware of. We were approached to create a graphic symbol and campaign to spread this knowledge to current students and visitors alike.
All work is owned by Fairbanks Brand Studio and clients.
LOGO + CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT
To kick off our concept, we brainstormed on a graphic that would signify something that is 90% hidden: an iceberg.
We designed this in a friendly, clean approach to encourage students and the public to wander downstairs to view the collections. The unique architecture of the museum lended itself well to represent the "tip of the iceberg," while each department of research is shown on their own plane beneath the horizon.
