Most times, you get weeks or months before a project launches. Sometimes you get less than a week.

When the City of Perrysburg, in partnership with the Country Garden Club and Keep Toledo/Lucas County Beautiful, prepared to launch their drop-off composting program, they wanted engaging graphics that didn’t feel like garbage, but literally were. And they needed it “next week.”

The logo and campaign design focused on providing information for the readers - turning the content into “ah ha!” moments, avoiding grossed out cringes and inspiring them to participate in reducing landfill waste. Within a matter of days, the City of Perrysburg had their flyers ready to be distributed and their first bins open for business. 

We also built out elements in Canva for the City Information Officer to use over additional platforms. It is our firm belief that our design work should empower our clients, not tether them. These assets allowed the city to maintain the brand for their own communication channels.

From scraps to soil, we took a short timeline and made a design that will yield years of healthy harvests to come!
