Kona Big Wave Bar @ Fiserv Forum - Milwaukee, WI
This bar in Milwaukee’s Fiserv Forum was to be rebranded from the Lienenkugel Beer brand to Anheuser-Busch’s Kona Big Wave beer. For this rollout, I was in charge of creating a variety of full sized wall prints, dimensional acrylic pieces, wood panel accents, and custom table tops. I designed the custom surfboards and selected the lighting fixtures and wood paneling.

Michelob Ultra Stop & Grab @ Wells Fargo Arena - Des Moines, IA
Another project I had the opportunity to work on was the transformation of this space from a Budweiser walk up bar to a “Stop & Grab” Michelob Ultra station. These branded stations tend to employ simple strategies of just placing the logo of the product on everything, however I saw ample opportunity to incorporate more subtle patterns and transform some of the pillars into cans of Michelob Ultra, in addition to the usual taglines and logos of the brand.

1933 Ranch Bar & Lounge @ American Airlines Arena - Dallas, TX
Ben E. Keith is one of Anheuser-Busch’s largest distilleries, and wanted to break out and start selling some of their own beer and spirits. For this project, I had the opportunity to take their loose concepts and bring them together in a coherent package. Here, I was able to design their signage and wall installation; select furniture, wall fixtures, and finishes; as well as design the seating arrangement.

Cutwater/NUTRL Stop & Grab @ PPG Paints Arena - Pittsburgh, PA
I had the opportunity to transform this space, formerly a Captain Morgan branded kiosk, into a co-branded, “Stop & Grab” station for Cutwater Spirits and NUTRL. The project was an interesting challenge in balancing the two very different brands, and creating assets that could be placed together without one overwhelming the other. All the branded assets for this project were created by me.

Parking Garage @ Westlake Tower - Seattle, WA
The parking garage of Westlake Tower was in dire need of an update and redesign. Dull interiors, dark lighting, and confusing signage were making it difficult for patrons of the tower to find their way through (and out of) the garage. A major overhaul was necessary for both floors, so I created comprehensive sign plan and cohesive branding for the space.

Wall, Monument, and Blade Signs
Sometimes the best solution for a client is as simple as a new sign. I have had the joy of designing various one-off signage for many clients over the years.
