The Best Job on Earth

There aren’t many jobs out there where you not only earn a living by performing your duties, but that you have opportunities to win awards, too. Graphic design offers both!

Studio 22 has been honored in the American Graphic Design Awards for the fourth consecutive year. This year’s winning entries are all in the 2008 report category: Diesel Technology Forum Annual Report, Desert Glory Sustainability Report and Strategic Sustainability Consulting Sustainability Report.

Stats on the winners:

While not a sustainability report, Diesel Technology Forum‘s report was reconfigured to be dimensionally smaller and contain fewer pages than in years past. We printed less hard copies and sourced a green certified printer, using vegetable-based inks and FSC-certified 100% recycled/50% PCW paper.

Desert Glory‘s inaugural sustainability report was not printed, and was instead created specifically for web download. We maintained print-quality standards and page count, however, in the event the company wishes to print any reports commercially.

Strategic Sustainability Consulting‘s report – their third with us – was also a web-based report. Creating a digital report was a first for SSC, as we’ve produced printed reports for them from the start. However, with this more flexible medium, we were able to go bold with color, graphic elements and page shape with the knowledge that they would look great on-screen.

This recognition wouldn’t be possible without our incredible clients and the trust they place in us to create these pieces. We thank you!

Studio 22 Celebrates National Trails Day

In honor of National Trails Day, coming up on June 6th, we’ve launched a little promotion called “Get Out!” You may have received our gift encouraging you to get outside and enjoy yourselves.*

We hope you do (or did) “Get Out!” and have a story to share with us here. If you have a photo, just post the link with your story. Whether it’s a weekend of camping or quick spin around some single track, we’d like to know how you celebrate National Trails Day.

Update: Even while at the beach, Eryn was able to “Get Out!” and hit the trail for some bike riding. She logged about 8 miles on a clunky single speed beach cruiser with her husband and mother-in-law before enjoying some rest on a beach chair. Photo courtesy: destateparks.com


*If you didn’t receive a gift and feel left out, send us an email (info at studio20two dot com, subject line: Get Out!), and we’ll see what we can do…

Studio 22 and Naukabout Making Memories

Frederick, MD, November 24, 2008 — Studio 22 is helping Naukabout ask their customers, “Where do you Naukabout?” Naukabout retained the graphic design firm to create the marketing piece introducing the new company’s clothing line.

Naukabout’s tops, made from 100% organic cotton, along with hats, beanies and other accessory items, are meant to be worn while balancing life between work and play. The folded brochure embodies the tagline with strong visuals that represent one’s most memorable moments, places and life adventures.

“We could not have been more pleased with the piece that Studio 22 compiled for us,” stated Adam Conley, Naukabout’s Director of Operations. “Our biggest obstacle was finding a design firm who could embrace and understand our message, and convey that in graphic form. Eryn and her team nailed it on the first try.”

In keeping with both companies’ commitments to conservation and preservation, Studio 22 sourced a sustainable printing solution for the brochure. This included using a Green Certified printing company, FSC-certified 100% recycled (100% post consumer waste) paper, and vegetable-based inks. Taking the process one step further, the carbon emissions for the printing shipment were also offset.

“We’re not only excited to help Naukabout announce the launch of their clothing line, but that we have been able to uphold our common values in the production of the piece,” said Eryn Willard, Studio 22’s founder. “We are proud to be affiliated with Naukabout and are looking forward to their continued success.
