If you aren’t familiar with Monster Energy, just watch any extreme sporting event in the world and you will see the ever-present bright green “M”. With hundreds sponsored events throughout the world, Monster Energy helps take competition to the next level.

Wold Creative Group will help promote some of these events through the print and web mediums. We are looking forward to getting a little more “extreme”. Welcome guys. Now, let’s make some epic ads.

From start to finish, the focus of Missio Dei Community’s website has been on an artistic approach to what a community looks like. With clean and simple design, we created a modern website for a church that thinks outside-the-box. The site itself has a complete content management system where they can edit and add pages at will. Within this framework, they still have a site that has been SEO constructed as well as custom made in order to fit their specific needs.

We are quite proud of how this turned out but you can check it out for yourself at missiodeislc.com. (click below)

Wold Creative Group has been chosen to brand the 9th & 9th Business District. This is one of the unique areas of Salt Lake City that has businesses ranging from restaurants to retail to service-oriented businesses. It truly is a cross-section of the neighborhood and has increasingly become a destination.

After the branding processes, we will also be designing and developing a website that will be able promote businesses, events and potentially allow for another revenue stream for the district though online sales.

Missio Dei Community is a church-plant from Portland with progressive ideas of exactly what community means. With a modern take on church, Wold Creative Group is working with Missio Dei to create a website that fits its intended audience. The website is being developed as we speak but, in the meantime, feel free to checkout the temporary site that we put up.

We are excited to launch a website for Brach Design Architecture. This firm focuses an elegant, modern and authentic design while being the first Certified Passive House Consultant within Utah. This focus on green architecture allows for sustainable buildings that, through time, will save money as well as the environment. Please check out their website at brachdesign.com.

Mobile gourmet food trucks have been very successful in LA, New York and other major cities and now it is Salt Lake City’s turn. With the introduction of the Chow truck, Salt Lake City foodies can follow this truck at its host locations to pick up a coconut-lemon grass chicken taco, pineapple-ginger pork or asian spiced root chips. With great food and affordable prices, this has already proven to be popular and successful. Even with our splash webpage up for their website, they received multiple articles from the likes of Deseret News and Salt Lake Tribune.

Now we have launched their new website. This is the place to find out where they are going to be and to see the latest. Working with a local designer, Traci Overy Covey, we helped design and then construct a web presence for the Chow truck. Starting with their Twitter page, we then created an integrated blog with widgets that will allow them to update the site regularly. Check it out by clicking below.

We are proud to say that we have launched another successful website for a client. After completing the re-branding for this church, we were then hired to re-do their website to match the new brand direction as well as give them an updated web presence. This included providing photography for the entire site as well as blogs that acted as a CMS (content management system) as well as a beautiful website to match their needs.

Like a lot of industries, the design and website development world has trends that surface practically daily. Because of new technology and seemingly new design concepts, the trends in the industry come quickly and leave even quicker. So what should be done with “the next big thing”?

With web development it is a lot easier for us to distinguish between the newest items that are good and those that we ignore. We approach this in the same way that we approach design for a client; we approach this with marketing in mind. If the latest development item goes beyond just looking cool and actually helps the client, then it is something that we would use, when appropriate. If the new development item does not perform well across platforms (Internet Explorer as the prime example), or is not read (crawled) well by the major search engines, or just is inappropriate for the audience, then the client would not benefit by using that development.

With design, sifting through trends is a little more difficult. If something is “too trendy” then there is the risk of a design becoming obsolete very quickly. If a design is “too traditional” then there is the risk of the design not effectively speaking to the intended audience.

All design should consider the 5 elements of art, line, shape, color, texture and balance. Each of the elements should be considered and followed (or purposely broken) for the design to be good. There is one more element that i would like to add to this specifically for designing for clients and that would be the purpose of the design. The purpose of the design will help determine goals, audience and the creative direction of the piece. What would work for a contemporary, young brand would probably not work for a corporate established brand. It is all about purpose for effective design.

More could be said about this but just remember this, if design or development is done for a client, then it should be done to better the client. Happy designing.
