THE ARROYO EMAIL’S
CHALLENGE
JLL's Phoenix team needed eye-catching 800-pixel wide emails for The Arroyo property that would grab brokers' attention and serve as a template for future premium campaigns. Building on a successful pilot, the goal was to create something special that worked seamlessly within our existing Eloqua system.
APPROACH
The design focused on making a strong visual impact while keeping things functional: Bold Visuals: Used animated renderings and GIF carousels as hero images to immediately showcase the property's best features. Smart Structure: Created a clean layout with property logos, dynamic visuals, clear CTAs, and easy-to-find contact info. Flexible Build: Delivered InDesign artwork optimized for Eloqua with live text wherever possible for easy editing. On-Brand: Kept JLL and SVP branding consistent while pushing creative boundaries
OUTCOME
The result? Brokers got premium marketing tools that make The Arroyo stand out, and we created a reusable framework for future custom campaigns—all without disrupting our standard processes
140
SECOND
CHALLENGE
Elevate a Class A office building with mid-tier finishes to compete with premium SOMA properties and attract AI startups and tech tenants.
APPROACH
I developed a bold, modern identity anchored by the building's cobalt blue accents. The system included both icon-based and typographic logo variations that emphasized the distinctive "140 Second" name, setting it apart from generic office branding.
OUTCOME
The brand repositioned the property as a creative tech destination, transforming perception from standard office space to a compelling, design-forward environment that resonated with the target audience.
GLOW
BEAUTY
CHALLENGE
Glow needed a visual identity that would cut through a crowded luxury skincare market while balancing elevated minimalism with warmth and radiance.
APPROACH
I designed a custom wordmark with soft curves and high contrast that embodies both sophistication and approachability. The warm, luminous color palette mirrors healthy skin, while comprehensive brand guidelines—spanning typography, packaging, and tone of voice—ensured consistency across all touchpoints.
OUTCOME
The identity established Glow as a premium, aspirational brand with a cohesive visual language that communicates luxury and efficacy. The flexible system supports future growth while maintaining a distinctive presence in the skincare space.
RIVERPORT
CHALLENGE
Create a brand identity for Riverport, a 115,400 SF industrial development in Missouri, that emphasized strategic location advantages and stood out in signage applications to attract logistics and manufacturing tenants.
APPROACH
I integrated a directional arrow into the 'o' of Riverport to symbolize multimodal connectivity and the property's position at major interstate intersections near Lambert-St. Louis Airport. Bold colors and geometric typography optimized visibility and reinforced industrial credibility.
OUTCOME
The brand effectively communicated transportation advantages through smart visual storytelling. High-impact signage and a modern, professional identity resonated with the target audience while differentiating the property in the industrial market.
FAUX
CHALLENGE
Create a full brand identity and packaging system for Faux Gin, a non-alcoholic spirit targeting sophisticated drinkers seeking elevated alternatives without typical "mocktail" aesthetics.
APPROACH
I developed a refined visual identity balancing clean minimalism with subtle botanical references that echo gin's complexity while feeling contemporary. The packaging was designed for bar cart appeal—elegant yet approachable—speaking to both wellness-conscious consumers and cocktail enthusiasts.
OUTCOME
Faux Gin launched with a distinctive identity that differentiated the brand in the growing non-alcoholic market, securing placement in boutique retailers and bars while resonating with a design-forward audience.
