It’s awards season at the office, and we just won six Hermes Creative Awards for graphic design, web design, web development, and digital marketing. Since 2013, we’ve been participating in this international creative competition (one of the oldest and largest in the world). Participants range from individuals to media conglomerates and even Fortune 500 companies. We’re proud of the amazing work our small Nanaimo-based team accomplished in the past year. Here’s a closer look at our winners.
Vancouver Island Conference Centre
The Vancouver Island Conference Centre (VICC) is an award-winning convention centre and event venue in downtown Nanaimo. Looking to update their brochure to secure more bookings, our graphic design team created an eye-catching lure brochure that shows why VICC is the destination of choice on Vancouver Island for exciting events, conventions, weddings, and galas. The brochure features valuable information like a branded map of the region that aligns with their digital presence and the information their target market wants. Our team won platinum for Print Media & Publications in the subcategory Brochure.
Marson Elk Lake by Mike Geric Construction
Marson Elk Lake is an up-and-coming development in Saanich, B.C. by developer Mike Geric Construction. Our team took home platinum for Logo Design under the Print Media & Design category. Inspired by the concept of place, the logo features circular and triangular elements that create a geometric-style shape that pays homage to the development’s natural surroundings and evoke feelings of community, stability and unity. Our graphic designers used the logo and brand identity to create supporting marketing assets like construction site signage, presentation centre graphics, and web design for their web development.
Tresah by Mike Geric Construction
Tresah is an urban condo development by Mike Geric Construction located in the up-and-coming Midtown neighbourhood in Victoria, B.C. Our team took home Platinum for Strategic Campaigns in the subcategory Integrated Marketing Campaign. Our graphic designers put together beautiful printed wall graphics that tells the story of the lifestyle Tresah offers in their presentation sales centre. The wall graphics coincide with Tresah’s web design to create a unified brand experience in-person and online.
Clinical Box
Clinical Box is an award-winning tech company that developed an automated software solution to help surgical clinics get faster prior authorization. Our team won Gold for our marketing video animation that demonstrates the software in action and creates a unique selling proposition in the market. The video animation aligns with Clinical Box’s brand and helps viewers understand complex information in a visually appealing way.
Garuda Centre
Garuda Centre is a medical centre in Nanaimo, B.C. that offers transformational groups, clinical counselling, and other forms of medical treatments to promote healthy minds, bodies, and spirits. Our team took home our second Gold win for this website in the Website Overall category. Having expanded their services and target markets, we revamped our original 2020 web design and web development to include a new live in-studio feed, online class schedule calendar, booking system, and chat support.
Mills Landing
Mills Landing is an oceanfront cottage and fishing resort located in Bamfield on Vancouver Island. Our team took home a Gold win for Website Redesign. Looking to attract and welcome back visitors to their remote location, we upgraded their web design with modernized colours and fonts rooted in their brand identity, customized iconography, illustrations, and textures that add depth and make content visually engaging.
