“Be a force, every time you step onto the ice.” The trainers at Power Plus Skating work with children and teens on building their techniques and skills in hockey. Their mission is to boost speed, power, and agility of young athletes. Working with their existing brand, imageDESIGN creates annual posters and brochures that communicate the bold, dynamic energy of the program. Business cards and a pull-up banner match the other materials and are a bright, exciting way to promote the program.

After establishing new branding for Hythe – including a logo, business cards, and signage – we continued on to a new website! This allowed us to custom design and develop a brand new site, showcasing their new branding using key elements including search, simple navigation options, and a clear layout. This allows for a smooth user experience making it easy for anyone to explore and find what they need.

The Village of Hythe’s focus is on the residents’ existing community spirit and the opportunity for businesses to establish themselves in Hythe. The icon design is an interconnection of the top and bottom of the “H”. The top part is community, represented by the leaves, and the bottom is the technology and progress, represented by the fiber optic. The use of interconnecting shapes within the icon symbolizes the existing strength and flexibility of the community – the straight edges for the strength and the curved, organic shapes for flexibility. Using a slab serif font echoes the idea of a strong and sturdy community, with some curvature and flexibility in the Village’s growth. The use of blue conveys confidence, intelligence and integrity. Combined with bronze, which represents strength and durability, the logo comes together representing a community holding their residents at heart while confidently moving into a modern direction to grow the community.

Wayfinding signage is one of the best things you can do for a large space. Not only does it help customers to navigate, but it’s also a perfect opportunity to show off your brand. The Grande Prairie Public Library wanted to upgrade their white walls and grey wayfinding signs to match their brand: energetic and bright. imageDESIGN was excited to inject colour into the space while also helping customers get around.

We designed and mocked-up painted walls, new signs, and tower displays. Working with local painters and printers, we were there every step of the way to bring the brand to the space.

Crouse’s Cleaners has been a staple in the city since 1979, keeping Grande Prairie looking its best with exceptional cleaning services.

After, we worked on a new website, business cards, and printed promotional materials. We even created the initial look for their exterior building renovations!

After nearly 40 years of service, city councillor Helen Rice announced her retirement from Grande Prairie City Council in 2017. The City of Grande Prairie wanted to commemorate Helen, while also capturing some of her unique experiences for future counselors. The result is a collection of short stories from Helen herself, compiled by local writer Jessica Sanderson. The stories include advice, anecdotes, and insight into working on city council. imageDESIGN created the design of the 80-paged book, keeping it clear and to the point—just like Helen.

Our College. Your Future. Grande Prairie Regional College (GPRC) is a vital piece of our community. When GPRC wanted a refresh that built on their existing Vital campaign, imageDESIGN worked with them to create an engaging, consistent brand.

This brand included two variations for the campaign’s look. One is bright, colourful, and energetic look aimed at recruitment. The other sticks to GPRC’s traditional colour palette with a more corporate. The design has the flexibility necessary to work across departments for years to come. For this brand, we’ve completed a viewbook, folded information cards, advertisements, billboards, banners, booklets, folders, sandwich boards, social media templates, flyers, posters, postcards, promotional materials, and much more!

Expand your vision. This slogan promotes the Municipal District of Greenview in its tourism and economic development strategies. Before creating the brand, the project started with a survey of Greenview’s target market. The results were used to make an identity that speaks to the vast potential and possibilities in the region. Following the logo, imageDESIGN made a series of materials for the brand to launch the new identity. This includes trade show displays and banners, a stationery set, a fold-out map, an industry specific booklet, presentation slides, a tourism website, brand strategies and guidelines books, and social media graphics—whoo, that was quite the mouthful!

Even when undergoing a major streetscape upgrade, there is plenty to do in Grande Prairie’s downtown core! To show what the enhancement project included, we worked with the City of Grande Prairie to create a booklet that detailed key information of the design and phases of construction. Then, to showcase what is available in our city, we created an easy-to-use map for the Grande Prairie Downtown Association. The front features a map with just some of the many businesses located downtown, while the back is dedicated to two initiatives to encourage exploring the area on foot.

Through the experience of working with TSR Technical Search and Rescue, we had the opportunity to redesign the website for Search and Rescue Alberta.

To give the public an idea for what the development in the neighbourhood of Hillside might look like, the City of Grande Prairie wanted a series of illustrations created. We were happy to help design a series showing the potential of what a piece of our city could be! imageDESIGN chose to use a sketched look for the rendering series, since they are concepts. This way, people wouldn’t focus too heavily on details and finishes that hadn’t been decided on.

Originally designed for a retro, camping themed photo shoot for the Ultimate Bridal magazine, this wedding invite has gotten quite a lot of attention from local brides-to-be! We love the playful, casual look of this stationery set, from the tent diecut RSVP, to the charming map showing the highlight locations, to the custom envelope and liner.

imageDESIGN has worked with hundreds of local artists to reproduce their artwork. One such artist is Louanne Hart, a longstanding member of the Grande Prairie art community. We colour matched the reproductions to be as close to the original pieces as possible, had Louanne confirm the test prints, produced the copies, and had them framed. Louanne has also ordered art cards, which make a great gift!

imageDESIGN had a lot of fun creating sporty, dynamic visuals for the marketing and promotion of the Grande Prairie Storm junior hockey team.

Deeproot was looking to make their logo feel more approachable and casual, and they chose us to create their vision.

The Grande Prairie & District Chamber of Commerce is a voice for businesses of all shapes and sizes. They wanted a bold, graphic trade show display that would showcase their values. imageDESIGN designed a display that allows the small panels to be swapped out with new graphics. This makes it very flexible – instead of printing a whole new display to show a different message, the Chamber can easily change out one, two, or however many panels they want.

When GPRC Research & Innovation was looking to increase visibility of their department, to tie their different teams together, and catch students’ attention, they chose to work with imageDESIGN based on past experience working with our design team.

Continuing their branding with us, the Jack Ouellette team wanted a webPREMIERE that would flow with the rest of their materials. With an easy to use property search, social media stream, and convenient mortgage calculator, the Jack Ouellette site offers a lot of desirable features to viewers.

Homes & Land is a real estate network that covers thousands of communities across Canada and the United States.

The owners of Reynars needed a flexible brand that could be applied to both of their businesses: Reynars Funeral Home & Crematorium and Beaverlodge Funeral Service. With imagery in mind – an antique lamppost and a hearse – imageDESIGN worked out a design that combines the elements into a logo that would feel current and be a strong launching point for future materials.

Sherri Toerper wanted to steer clear of the classic imagery for realtors when she started her brand: no houses and no keys. She asked for a logo that was modern, clean, bold, and of high quality – and we delivered! Following her logo design, we designed business cards, advertisements, email signature, Facebook cover and profile graphic, and webPREMIERE website.

The range of colourful labels is as extensive as Grain Bin’s beer selection!

HEAT Lubricants is a local line of products specially formulated to work in the harsh Canadian north.

imageDESIGN has enjoyed a working relationship with Aquatera for years and has completed numerous projects for them, including vehicle wraps for multiple vans. Because different campaign messages appear on all sides of the vehicles, imageDESIGN created a border that tied into their overall brand, which kept a consistent element throughout.

Sometimes, companies just want to get a professional presence online. After getting their logo designed by our team, the webPRESENCE single page option was perfect for Stat Safety Training Inc.

We partnered with a painter, who translated our design onto the office walls.

Olwen’s Scrapbook: A Journey to the Peace Country in 1933 is both an art book and journal documenting Olwen Sanger-Davie’s journey to Alberta. We worked together with the South Peace Regional Archives to create a coffee table book to allow Olwen’s beautiful artwork and story to be accessible to the public. As strong advocates for the arts, imageDESIGN encouraged in this reproduction beyond the design of the book: helping to arrange sponsorship, arranging a transcriber, and promoting the book.
