Project in Focus: Lo Cash Cowboys

LoCash Cowboys are new to the country scene, with their energetic and innovative style they really separate themselves from your grandma’s country! For “Keep in Mind” they took a step back from their edgier norm and created this truly beautiful ballad. Collide (with the photography of Allen Clark) in creating the art for this single, tried to soften things up a bit without taking away the LoCash personality. What you see here is an ad for the single “Keep in Mind” and the original logo created for the band. Look for more of our work with these guys in the future, we’re having a blast!

The Postures of Faith

For the past several years, longtime client The Village Chapel have developed a yearly theme, which ties in to the main visual elements of the church. This has always taken the form of a collaboration with the amazing artist Kim Thomas, who, in this case created sculptures as part of an installation which was on display at the front of the church throughout the year. Collide worked on the bulletin design, incorporating the sculptures via the photography of Allen Clark, playing out theme of “The Postures of Faith” in four parts. See below for the resulting designs, and the installation on display in the church. I could go on explaining, but I think these speak for themselves.
