Social Eyes is a project in collaboration with guitarist, songwriter and producer, Gareth Gilliland, for his EP release, Social Eyes.
Drawing influence from house music, folk tradition, and 20th-century jazz, Social Eyes becomes home to an eclectic collage of sounds. Our approach to image-making centred around experimentation and ambiguity.
Follow the project via Instagram, and listen to his EP.

New Standards is a weekly music series intended to foster community and create space for musicians, artists, and listeners to imagine. New Standards is creative improvised music, every Wednesday at The Common in Edmonton.
The development of the visual identity came from a confluence of inspiration. We wanted the identity to communicate experimentation and ecclecticism, while staying true to the modern aesthetic found in modern jazz.

Identity
Leaning into the dynamic and adaptable nature of improvised music, New Standards’ icon is designed to be re-arranged. As improvised music morphs freely from one musical passage to the next, NS icon shifts, too.
Borrowing visual cues from subway signage, NS borrows two common symbols to communicate the vision: arrow, square. New Standards is exploratory and familiar. New Standards is forward-thinking and grounded in tradition.
