What we've done

Corporate ID

TroutDream Graphics has been creating memorable corporate logos for over 12 years. Here are a few of our more recent examples. The Corporate ID package includes consulting with you to determine the best image, style and direction for your visual identity, creation of about three original and unique logos and working with you to develop the final logo, based on one or more of the original creations. We will provide you with electronic versions of the logo in various formats and sizes, color and font recommendations and layouts for business cards, letterhead and envelopes.

We worked with Idea Bank interactive to create not just a logo, but a business name and overarching vision for this executive consulting firm in Kirkland WA. Leading Roles @ Work helps prepare talented technical innovators move into leadership and management roles effectively. They wanted a company image that would appeal strongly to their target audience (engineers and other high-tech workers), look both professional and modern and express their mission at a glance.

The Business Resource Group is a consultancy that assists business people in selling, purchasing or evaluating business opportunities. They wanted a logo that would express the idea of reaching for and attaining a great opportunity - something of value - and yet still keep a human element, without resorting to cliches such as shaking hands or bar graphs. He's had a great response from clients who like the way the hand seems to be reaching the star and yet also treating it with respect.

Nick Orphan is a Certified Financial Planner and when he opened his own office, he was looking for an image that would suggest stability and security, since a large percentage of his clients are people planning for their retirement. After exploring a variety of images, we settled on the nest egg image, but gave it a clean iconic look that works well small on his cards as well as on the large sign outside his office.

The Innovative Strategies Group in Atlanta, GA wanted a distinctive, modern image that would simply express their forward-thinking philosophy. We decided to use a delta - the symbol of change, but gave it a 3D appearance that makes it stand out. The shadow suggests that the company is bathing in a bright spotlight and yet the overall effect is still simple and straightforward.

Navigator Technologies has been in Internet infrastructure consulting since the earliest days of the internet. The owner of the company is a longtime afficionado of tall ships and selected the name for his company (before Netscape Navigator emerged on the scene) both because of his hobby and because the company was charting new waters in the digital world. We went back to original engraved maps from the earliest explorer's times for image of a tall sailing ship, sails full of the wind of energy and innovation.

Complete Scapes is a residential and commercial landscaping company. The maple branch logo we created for them looks distinctive on the sides of their white trucks around Atlanta. We chose autumn colors as a deliberate departure from the nearly unrelieved swathes of green that makes up most gardening logos.
