Freakin’ awesome iPhone accessory

Freakin' awesome iPhone case

Freakin' awesome iPhone case

Ok, so I’m listening to Mac Break Weekly and it turns out that one of the cool new iPhone accessories merges the old-school and new-school – a paper iPhone case that you can draw on. There’s something so yummy about wrapping your high tech device in a brown paper cover. Sort of takes me back to the days of creating covers for my text books out of old paper shopping bags. Max <3 iPhone innovation.

Community Heritage Partners

The Challenge: Retool the brand for a firm operating in Lancaster over the last quarter century

Community Heritage Partners, an architectural firm in downtown Lancaster, was facing a crossroads in late 2008. Should it radically change its branding — even consider a name change — or would a refresh  be enough to get them through the next quarter century? We worked with them to find a happy medium that honors its past while looking to the company’s future.

Update

Here is the latest of our efforts for Community Heritage Partners; a web video highlighting CHP’s newest development project, Expressly Local Foods. Enjoy!
