I just noticed that Doyald Young passed away earlier this year.ย Doyald was a master logotype designer and world class typographer.ย I had the pleasure of meeting him at a St. Louis AIGA lecture a couple years ago.ย He was kind, witty and had a special demeanor and presence that made you feel instantly comfortable.ย Here is a great video showcasing him and some of his work.
Visual Lure was recently contracted to design the packaging for a new USAF CD titled Sonata in Blue.ย It will feature the Rampart Winds of the United States Air Force Academy Band.ย The band provided the following direction: “We want to visually showcase the five individuals that make up the quintet. ย Not necessarily with their pictures, but with some other representation. ย The instruments used are flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon and French horn. ย We would like to the cover to be recognizable as an Air Force product in some fashion…”
With this guidance, we came up with the concept of five F16s (representing the quintet) flying in formation with music (notes and symbols) coming out of the jet’s contrails (exhaust).ย Below is our initial proposed cover. Check back soon to see the finished product.
TWM, a St. Louis area engineering firm, recently contracted Visual Lure to create custom illustrated Christmas cards this year.ย With complete creative control, we designed a card that features a couple of piggybacking elves working with a snowman on a land survey.ย We also added a red gloved engineer inspecting a “season’s greetings” blueprint, and to finish it off, we added a snowy St. Louis skyline.ย In addition to design services, we also wrote the copy: “We hope all your plans and dreams are fulfilled this holiday season!”.

Justen Hong of Visual Lure can up with the concept and wrote the copy, and the illustration was a collaboration between he and Ev Rein.
Visual Lure was recently contracted to design a website for a St. Louis based photography album company.ย The main pages and blog will be built in Word Press so that the client can easily maintain those sections. There will also be a very robust back-end store, a virtual album builder with live price quoting and custom admin sections that will be built in PHP.ย Below is our proposed home page design. Check back soon for the official launch of the new website.

Visual Lure was recently contracted to upgrade a logo and design a two page spread/ad for T. Free Photography, a very talented photographer based out of Omaha, Nebraska. The ad will be featured in Nebraska Wedding Day Magazine. We designed two initial ads that the client wasn’t feeling, but after receiving some direction and feedback, we hit the mark pretty close with our third design option.ย We are still in the process of tweaking the ad, but below is a sneak peek at where we are.ย Check back soon to see the final ad.

After a couple rounds of alterations, here is the final approved ad design:
Visual Lure was recently contracted to design a new Word Press website for Lowery Benefit Services, a St. Louis Metro East group benefits company based out of Belleville, IL.ย They specialize in group medical, dental & vision insurance, group life insurance, group short & long term disability and group retirement benefits along with a substantial amount of secondary services.ย The new website will be built in Word Press which will allow the Lowery staff to easily maintain the site in-house.ย The website will also have the ability to provide individuals with instant free quotes on health & dental insurance using a third party integrated service.ย Below is our proposed home page design.ย Check back soon for the official launch of the new website.

Here is our proposed logo design (show below in sample signage) for a new commercial development coming to Marion, IL.ย It shows that sometimes, simply a font (with some tweaking and spacing adjustments), is all that is needed to achieve a classy, high-end, sophisticated look.ย We are currently working on other signage solutions so check back soon to see more.
