Design Surrounds Us All

It is true… design surrounds us all somehow, someway we all are impacted by design. I have a very close friend who recently experienced this lesson - “Design Surrounds Us All.” It was a crystal clear day and he and his team were headed out to take care of their clients’ needs. During this trip they had the unfortunate experience of seeing the vivid red and blue lights in their rear view mirror no one enjoys seeing (at least I am not aware of anyone). Thanks to this experience though Perry & Sons Lawn Service / Snow Removal – learned the great value in branding their work vehicle for multiple reasons. As they are now to state requirements and more visible to growing with new on lookers.

We at Boundless Design were contacted to help with this immediate need as we designed the signage and worked with Steve Scalph at Sign Here Ltd – who actually produced our designs/layouts for Perry & Sons. The plot thickens as Perry & Sons now are also considering new shirts for their crew so they are quickly understanding the impact when a brand is fully leveraged. The more cohesive a brand is… the more powerful a brand becomes and the more likely a brand will be remembered by those who see it or experience it.

Design surrounds us all, each and every day. I invite you to stop take a look around and ask yourself if you are fully leveraging the brand of your services or products to their full potential you deserve? The small details can have a huge impact and get you noticed. Cheers!


BD Goes to the Indy Air Show for Thrills

posted June 8th, 2009 in Graphic Design by jillharding

It was the perfect Saturday for spectating at the 13th Annual Indianapolis Air Show at the Mount Comfort Airport. We sat in the crowd appearing up in the sky awaiting for the next aeroplane to take stage in the open air. As a graphic designer I was ever inspired by the amazing cloud formations and the plane vapor trails that filled the afternoon sky, plus the colorful planes and their graphics. The rich blues and vivid whites were very striking. The sounds, the sites, the thrills were ever amazing. The show ended with the spectacular Blue Angels flying in their all powerful close formations.
