Playing on the fact that the Gowanus Canal is a Superfund Site — a designation given by the EPA for the worst of polluted sites — we created this much loved staple of our shop. Black Yupoong Hat with stiched print.
Gowanus Souvenir Beach Towel
Every canal needs its own towel. Mimicking the classic tropes of all good resort hotel graphics, we included stars (5 of course), a crown, and est. dates.

We have created all print materials for the last three CHiPS Spring Gala, their annual fundraiser. Every year we come up with a new floral theme. Materials include save the date postcards, posters, invitations, rsvp cards and envelopes, online marketing assets, and the event program.

CHiPS Giving Tuesday Marketing
Making use of CHiPS logo that incorporates the two missions of CHiPS — homeless shelter and soupkitchen — we developed a number of images to use across digital platforms.
German School Brooklyn Yearbooks
Among the materials we design for the German School Brooklyn, private international school in Brooklyn offering bilingual education, is there annual yearbook.
Clavo Lain Realestate Brochure
A brochure for a Swiss cottage from 1748 that was given an ultra-modern make over in 2012 that preserved the exterior look. The brochure need to reflect the modern design.
CHiPS Night Out Posters
For two years we created the CHiPS night out posters and cards.
CD Design for Elio Villafranca
Album design, including CD jewelcase, booklet and CDs, and promotional materials, and website.
For Elio Villafranca’s Grammy nominated album we created a handwritten title font to reference the Kongolese religious signage, so called firmas, that are part of Cuban history. The firmas appear on the over and CDs.
Barbara Kilpatrick
An artist with a very long career, Barbara needed a new website that would focus attention on her visual art, while paying tribute to her acclaimed costume design.
Oscar Peñas
A site for a jazz musician and composer that focuses on his newest album via its look, while also providing easy access to info on past albums, press, tour dates, teaching, and a press package.
Elio Villafranca
Elio needed a new website that would promote his newest album (I also designed the album cover, packaging and booklet) including press, tracks, upcoming shows, as well as make previous work a press materials easily accessible.
Margaret Cogswell
An artist with long career needed an engaging website to show her work that was also easy to navigate and show the relationships of the pieces to each other.
Gowanus Canal Conservancy
A local non-profit that needed to find a way to give a visual structure to the many different projects they do and how those projects are interconnected, with the goal to engage and encourage a viewer to participate in their programs.
Handcoded html sites I love but no longer exist....
