The Hotel Minneapolis Pt. 2

Last week I wrote about J. Zachary Keenan’s typog­ra­phy for the Hotel Minneapolis, as well as a new project from Crystal Barlow. And on a sec­ond look at Crystal’s port­fo­lio, I real­ized she also worked on the project. Without much back­ground infor­ma­tion it looks like she was respon­si­ble for cre­at­ing illus­tra­tions that were applied to envi­ron­men­tal sig­nage and sta­tionery. See a cou­ple more images right here.

The client then took the project to another com­pany (some­thing that’s frowned upon, but hap­pens a lot) that Crystal had worked for at the time Graphic Culture where she devel­oped the illus­tra­tions and applications.
