Working with Creative Director Anita Madeira, our purpose was to elevate this startup brand’s presence, from digital advertising to social media, and to make a real and authentic connection in the message. In addition, R+F produces a yearly Convention to celebrate their Consultants and launch new products. We created themes, collaborated on Main Stage designs, and produced videos for Convention that also served as their digital marketing platform.

R+F quickly grew to become the #1 Skincare Brand in the US during this time, with global presence in Canada and most recently, Australia. The new product launch of Lash Boost sold 1.5M units with $200M in sales in one year, while Active Hydration Serum, had $100M in sales within 8 months of the launch.

Producers of Social Media Content for clients such as Kravet, Rodan & Fields, Traditions Linens among others. Kravet brands also include Lee Jofa, Brunschwig & Fils, GP & J Baker and Kravet Contract. All photography and styling by Voth Barrall Design.

Kravet commissioned us to help develop an e-commerce site for their designers to add more product availability for their clients in a more accessible way. From logo and tagline design, to working with the web builders, we collaborated to create a new way to shop "designer-curated" rooms. CuratedKravet.com allowed designers to be able to explore features such as trends, designer stories, bios and mood boards, and experience a convenient way to shop.

Design. Click. Delivered.

Kravet is a 100-year old family run business and established leaders in the home furnishings industry. Our “inspired” print ad campaign for Kravet spanned 15 years, from 2001-2016. By using color and graphic metaphors we helped create consistent and ownable messaging for the brand. The slogan “inspired Kravet” was trademarked and incorporated into the company’s entire platform. We also created ad campaigns for two of their other brands, Lee Jofa and Kravet Contract.

Mela Artisans is a luxury-driven lifestyle brand that contemporizes traditional Indian handcrafted skills, while fostering entrepreneurship in local artisan communities. Our work includes a total re-branding, elevating the brand with a fresh sophistication, enabling them to gain new retail partners from Homegoods to Bergdorf Goodman and Neiman Marcus. The creation of a new tagline “ by heart, by hand” embraces that spirit.

The rebranded logo allowed for 4 alternative tiers, separated by color, to indicate the varying retail levels for the brand from lower to higher-end markets. We designed, prop-styled, retouched and executed final printing on various seasons of Lookbooks, as well as set up social media templates for Mela Artisans.

Lillian August is a 30 year/3 Generations company. We designed the original Lillian August logo over 20 years ago which has remained in effect with additional collection logos added in recent years. Work includes creating a Brand Style Guide and a Brand “Magalog” Booklet, as well as designing National Ads focusing on furniture (Sherrill Furniture Brands) including indoor and outdoor products. Work with various Licensees has led to hang tag designs and presentation imagery for new product categories.

On location in San Francisco, with Anita Madeira as director, we shot video and stills covering this new product launch. Using the “atmosphere” as metaphor, this outdoor location reinforces and communicates the moisturizing message. The product reached $100M in sales within the first 8 months of its launch. The assets created were used in a digital ad campaign and social media.

B&F is a prestigious source for exclusive furnishings since 1880 with a distinct point of view. We designed and art directed this series of ads utilizing the human element, specifically a fashionable woman, which we feel connects B&F's past with an ever-transcending and always enduring sense of style.
