Visual Lure recently finished these two package designs for feline products developed by a St. Louis area veterinary pharmaceutical company. One is for feline hairball control and the other aids in the management of feline Herpes Virus-1 related diseases. Both are extremely tasty to felines which makes it easy to administer for pet owners. These products are sold exclusively by veterinarians.

TWM, a St. Louis area engineering firm, recently contracted Visual Lure to create custom illustrated Christmas cards this year.  With complete creative control, we designed a card that features a couple of piggybacking elves working with a snowman on a land survey.  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.  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 new website for Fontebella, a St. Louis Metro East maternity shelter, located in O’Fallon, IL serving Southern Illinois.  The new website will be built in WordPress which will allow our clients to update and maintain the new website with ease.  We also designed their logo, which was inspired by a stork carrying a baby, but because it’s a faith-based shelter, we replaced the stork with a dove.  Below is our proposed home page design.  Check back soon for the launch of the new website.

UPDATE: The new Fontebella website has launched.  Check out the new site here: www.fontebella.org.

Visual Lure was recently contracted to design a logo for an online “Nutrition University” that educates users how to loss weight, the healthy way, based on exercise, diet and nutrition.  They wanted a logo that resembled a university seal or crest, so we replaced the book, flame and candle icons that you would typically see on a university crest, and replaced them with a person running (symbolizing exercise), eating utensils (symbolizing diet & nutrition),  a scale with an arrow moving backwards (symbolizing weight loss) and a heart (symbolizing good health).  Showcased below are the crest, the crest rendered to look like it was made out of copper and an optional horizontal format.

Visual Lure was recently contracted to rebrand a St. Louis, MO based investigation/intelligence company.  They wanted a clean corporate image/logo, and below are some of the designs we came up with.  The logo design on the top is the chosen one, and the logos below that were some of our other concepts.  The chosen logo is a three dimensional stone, that also creates a step, and the letter “C”.  One thing we love about it, is if you stare at it, it will actually change from the letter “C” to a couple different dimensions of the stone/step.  This really makes you “investigate” the logo and look at it from other perspectives, which is what their business is all about.  We are currently working on their identity design package, which we will add soon, so come back to check it out.

Visual Lure was recently contracted to design the packaging for a new CD being released by the United States Air Force Band of Mid-America.  It will be featuring the sounds of Clifton Williams, a famous composer and Air Force veteran.  Here is a sneak peek at our proposed cover which will feature Clifton’s signature embossed and foil stamped on a nice textured paper.

We were honored to design the t-shirts for Anheuser Busch’s (Susan G. Komen) Race for the Cure team again this year. Below is the final design, and the design below that, could not be used due to Susan G. Komen’s logo standards/guidelines, but we thought we’d show it anyway.

It’s hard to believe it’s been a year already, and if you’ve kept up with our blog since then, you would know that my mother was diagnosed with breast cancer around the same time I designed last years shirts.  Since then, she has finished her chemo and radiation and is finally starting to feel “back to normal”.  I feel both lucky and blessed that she is OK, and it always means a little extra when I get to design these shirts.

Look out for our shirts June 11th in St. Louis at the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure.
