Brand BUILDING
Defining and creating brand elements is just the beginning. The brand story is ever evolving.
Grain Yard
About the Grain Yard:
The Grain Yard is a historic grain elevator in downtown Louisville, Colorado, purchased by a group of local residents with the goal of restoring the building, reopening it to the community, and expanding the town’s gathering places.
Project Context:
As a long-term renovation project with high local interest, the Grain Yard requires a clear, cohesive brand system that can evolve over time while maintaining consistency across platforms, communications, and physical space.
Project Goal:
Develop a brand identity and supporting digital ecosystem that reflects the Grain Yard’s history and community-first values, while providing a trusted, centralized source of information throughout the renovation process.
Scope of Work:
Logo design and brand guidelines
Website design, imagery, and content creation
Social media channel development and implementation
Newsletter template design, content development, and list management
The Brand in Action:
The Grain Yard brand is designed to balance unique, historical character with contemporary use, creating a flexible foundation that supports community engagement during renovation and long-term programming after opening. Visual assets and messaging emphasize transparency, progress, and local connection, allowing the brand to grow alongside the project itself.
