When Cowie and Fox joined forces with BC Dairy to launch a campaign for chocolate milk, we knew the results would be awesome. In February of 2010 C&F worked with BC Dairy to create Powered By Chocolate Milk, a brand that expertly represents their newly developed market category: chocolate milk as a sports recovery drink. Not only did this new branding opportunity provide C&F with a perfect platform to forge an online community, to promote the product, but it also allowed us to tap into the power of grassroots advertising.

When the up-and-coming social media company Wantsa came to us to design their website, they wanted to ensure one thing: that their product was conveyed clearly to their diverse users. The experienced creative team at Cowie and Fox knew exactly what to do, and began by evolving an inventive logo, brand and look-and-feel for their online presence. We took their complex multi-layered product and conveyed it simply, straightforwardly and effectively getting to the root of what social networking is all about, communication.

Real Cream Reigns Supreme

Sunday, April 4th, 2010

real-cream

At BC Dairy they believe natural is best, and the team at Cowie and Fox couldn’t agree more. The “Buy Local, Eat Natural. Real Cream” campaign, developed by C&F, focused not only on the sales of cream in BC, but also on the importance of eating natural foods. And what better way to convince consumers about the benefits of Real Cream than to have them sample it? (more…)

Lili Blossom is Vancouver’s newest online natural skin care retailer, and like Cowie and Fox, they love the environment! We love their unique approach to skin care and their efforts to respect the planet by reducing their environmental impact.

So, when they asked us to develop their name, brand strategy, look-and-feel, logo and website the answer was “yes,” naturally.

Örling and Wu will be opening in the heart of historical Gastown in late Spring. Cowie and Fox created their branding: logo and stationery. At Örling and Wu you will find decorative fabrics and objects from Europe and around the world. The branding strategy was to reflect a fresh mix of contemporary, vintage and classic European styles.

One of my favorite lotions is Malie. When you open the bottle it’s like a mini tropical vacation inside, it’s fragrant, but not too strong (i’m one of those people that doesn’t like perfumed products). I was also impressed with how it softens the skin. Definately a must have product!

Evolution of a Newsletter

Monday, October 26th, 2009

semp_newsletters

I’ve worked on Semperviva newsletters for a while, pretty much since the initial few, and it has gone through a few design refinements. The first change was inspired by a new Semperviva website and the other times is was just a push for bigger imagery and massaging in the top banner area. After doing so many, it’s interesting to go back and look at some of them. Semperviva is a great client and they allow great creative freedom.
