Since teaming in 1995, we’ve produced graphic design works for independent, non-profit and select corporate clients. Our identity systems rely on a unique web presence as the backbone of the brand. We develop database-backed websites with custom CMS implementations and specialized web-based apps. Whatever type of design we take on we’re looking for the unique voice of that project—and with Carrie coming at it from the art side and Ben the tech our combined forces are always able to find it. We think design lies not only in the visual but in the unseen structures that support it, both aspects keep us seeking the strongest solutions.

This redesign of a book (with the same title) published by the Sierra Club in the 1960s joins written observations from Thoreau during the late 1800s with the imagery of nature photographer Eliot Porter. This coupling of word and landscape, with interjections from Walden as well, have remained intact only the design has been updated. The removable title band encourages the book to remain off the shelf and out for perusal.
