Work sample from Dental Service Provider | Teeth Tomorrow

Dental Service Provider | Teeth Tomorrow

As Teeth Tomorrow® expanded their service offerings, a national-feeling brand identity was key. Teeth Tomorrow's focus is on implants. They provide support services to dentists in their provider network. Teeth Tomorrow is also a full-arch implant product marketing directly to patients. The logo had to appeal to both the network providers and the consumers in need of the full-arch implant. Getting an implant, especially a full-arch implant can be scary to a patient. Our designers chose an open and friendly font style, with a modified "new day" icon. (Inspired by the previous logo.) The result - a logo that is modern and simple, that appeals to both audiences.

Generator Installation Services | HPS

In the last decade, Holdridge Electric’s focus shifted to standby generator sales and service. To reflect this change, Holdridge Electric created a subsidiary Holdridge Power Systems. This helps their customers and prospects better understand their products and services. To connect the two brands, our designers used the colors, font style and the iconography of the parent company. We also focused on the initials of the name, so that "Holdridge" (the last name of the owner) will be less of a focal point. The long-term goal is for the entities to become separate companies.

Creating a brand identity is rewarding; helping to name a company is even more so. With this type of project, the goal is to capture the essence of the founder’s vision in one word. When our team was brought in, the founder of Beyond Wealth Management was starting to build his financial services firm. During the naming process, the word “beyond” was chosen to represent his visionary concepts, including his focus on high-touch personal service (going above and “beyond”) and offering college planning (“beyond” the services of typical insurance and retirement firms). Once named, the design of the logo quickly materialized. The icon, topography and colors convey the firm’s core values - holistic, flexible, and complete.
