The Inglenook Decor

A new client, The Inglenook Decor, needed a last minute coupon card designed for Thursday's upcoming Bleet-up at The Mohawk. (To RSVP for the event, click here. Go early for some swag, including said coupon cards.)

We're hoping this project will provide a great opportunity to work with printers and experiment with paper, hole punches and die cuts to create something unusual and representative of the store's aesthetic.

Here's the design thus far:


The current idea would place this logo in the middle of a 5" square card, with details on the coupon on the back.

Texas Tribune Launch Party Invite

For those of you in the know, The Texas Tribune launched their Web site today. You can check it out here.

In the meantime, check out this sweet invite that Erin designed for tonight's launch party at the Belmont:

GIANT Noise

Yesterday we finished some monthly maintenance on the GIANT Noise press Web site, updating their most recent press mentions. You can see a screen shot of the updates below, but check out their Web site here to see the full design as well as evidence of all their hard work.
Something Victory Dog Design is keeping in mind as the new year inches closer is how we will implement an archive or sub-navigation to help better organize all the old press clips.

IPS Group, Inc.

Recently Erin re-did the Web site for IPS Group, Inc., a company in California specializing in 'parking and telecommunications' technology. Basically, they make parking meters.

You can visit their Web site here, as well as see a screen shot of its current layout below.


Here is the redesign that Erin did.

Austin City Limits: DELL Lounge

Austin City Limits music festival was held this past weekend. For three days, our lives were overrun by live music, sun, rain, mud, after shows and not enough sleep. Also happening during this awesome mayhem, however, was the DELL Lounge. The lounge, a VIP tent of sorts next to the DELL stage, played host to media, musicians and other invited guests during the festival.

Organized and put on in part by C3, DELL, Mother New York and Giant Noise, we were enlisted to help in some last minute details. Victory Dog Design created and assembled artwork name tags, and Erin pulled a few strings to have some last minute vinyl posters printed in case of rain. Those definitely ended up coming in handy during Saturday's day-long deluge.

Below you can see a few photos by the awesome Austin photographer Annie Ray, whose work you can see here.

Guests could take advantage of free manicures by the lovely OPI ladies.

They also set up t-shirt iron-ons and button making.

NorCal Kids Triathlon

At the moment, Erin is working on a logo for the NorCal (Northern California) Kids Triathlon. The event is to be held in Orinda, California this November. The intended participants for the triathlon are obviously kids, but the ages range from K-12. These logo samples are actually part of a revision after collaborating some more with the clients.

Austin OrthoSports

Hi everyone,

Here's a recently finished logo of ours, done for Austin OrthoSports.


The client, Larry Sulit, recently moved to the Austin area and is a licensed physical therapist, specializing in sports therapy. Naturally, his target audience was athletes.

Post Number One


This is very exciting.

Soon to come: an up-to-date following of what goes on in the offices of Victory Dog Design. We will be including daily project progress - with images, of course, client feedback and upcoming deadlines! AH! Hopefully this blog will be chockablock full of daily on-goings that we don't have time to include filler posts such as archived clients & past projects - though they are all VERY GOOD. We certainly do not discriminate, over here at Victory Dog Design, one client, project, or exciting moment from another. We love all of those things.

Well, so glad you could join us. Hope to see you back real soon now, ya hear?

Cheers,
Erin (aka TBD)
