Tallgrass Studios worked with representatives of Simple Wellness to create a branding strategy that updated and expanded their current identity. The new identity reflects the vision, culture and unique combination of services provided by their organization. The branding work included a new name, symbol, logotype, color scheme, fonts and a graphic standards document. Promotional work included a new website, correspondence materials, signage and digital advertisements.
The Simple Wellness logo portrays characteristics that communicate the value of their expertise and service. Seven petals and colors intertwine to form a cohesive icon for the brand. This reflects the elements of their fundamental seven-part program for achieving ideal health. The identifiers highlight the three branches of service of wellness, fitness and medspa.
Tallgrass Studios designed and built a new website for Simple Wellness to promote the growth of their health and aesthetics programs. The homepage features a short introductory video, programmed to autoplay only on an initial visit. The considerable array of health and aesthetic services are easily accessible, with separate menus organized by condition and service type. Copy-heavy pages make use of tabbed content panels to sustain manageable page lengths. Sections of the site are color-coded according to their seven-part program for health. The site also features a custom events calendar, promotional landing pages and a private nurses' portal. The immersive, bright and clean feel of the site conveys feelings of healthfulness and reinforce the Simple Wellness brand promise.

Rachel Treanor worked with Tallgrass Studios to develop an identity that best represents her business philosophy. Rachel Treanor’s business offers strategic marketing and business development; the new logo, tagline and brand identity reflects her unique service offerings. Much thought and consideration went into the company name, colors, and brand marks. Tallgrass Studios selected the letters R and T from the founder’s initials to best represent the personal nature of mentorship offered by the company. The T also serves to reference the Teach, Track, Transform platform that is central to Rachel Treanor’s marketing strategy.
Tallgrass Studios designed and applied the new identity to collateral pieces, business cards, and, on May 30, 2017 launched a fully functional website that features customizable page information, news feed blog, and contact form. Visit the website at racheltreanor.com to see the logo and brand in action!

Jenny uses bodies to carry the obvious message, but also to convey contradiction: the classic and cartoony, iconic and companionable, sublime and ridiculous. They often become messengers of the moods, myths, and memes between men and women, and yes the women are largely bad-ass.

Another cool project we’ve tackled lately was putting together a promotional piece for Mainline Printing. Since they specialize in providing labelling for craft beer companies, what better way to advertise than to show off some bottle label designs at the Denver BrewFest?
This project consisted of three labels put together by our team, which blended together eye-catching imagery with cheeky print-related “flavors”. Several of Mainline’s capabilities were featured in this piece, such as die-cutting, folding, UV coating and metallic inks. Despite its 0% ABV, it was still a fun collaborative project for our crew.

4Sight Construction Group (4Sight) has been working with Tallgrass Studios since 2015 to develop a new corporate identity that best represents the core of their business philosophy while incorporating all service divisions under one name/identity. 4Sight is a fully integrated construction group providing; general contracting, heating, ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC), mechanical installation and service, and environmental services for their clients; their new logos, taglines and corporate identity now reflects their unique and integrated service offerings.
Much thought and consideration went into the company name, colors, and icon at business conception. 4Sight selected the compass icon to best represent their company’s attributes. A compass is a surveying or navigational instrument developed to look carefully in a certain direction, and can be used to measure true direction. The compass is the beginning of a plan and the foundation of foresight - or 4Sight.
Tallgrass Studios redesigned the compass with a modern feel and utilized colors to segment the logo to represent the different service divisions for the company. The main color, Dark Blue, was selected for their core vales of trustworthiness, dependability and commitment, and as their main service, General Contracting. Red was chosen for Mechanical Services that include heating, air conditioning, service and installation. Green represents Environmental areas of their work, such as finding more sustainable ways to do business, restorative development, and demolition reclamation.
New taglines that play off the navigational theme were created to supplement each division.
Time was spent finding the right combination of elements, but eventually a new logo and graphic standards were put into place. Tallgrass designed and applied the new identity to collateral pieces, business cards, letterhead, vehicle wraps, construction signage, and, on July 1, 2016 launched a fully functional website that features an animated logo, customizable page information, news feed blog, image galleries and customizable forms that corresponds to their existing email marketing.
Visit their website at 4sightconstruction.com to see the logo and brand in action!

to the Lawrence Warehouse Arts District. After 9 years in the vintage 901 Kentucky Building it was evident we needed more space, and moving into a large warehouse was a perfect fit. With 14’ ceilings and 1,000 more square feet of space, our new office gives us the room we need to create, design, produce and distribute. Our open house will be this summer. Stay tuned.

SunSTONE Apartment Homes wanted to update their website to create something that would resonate the quality and convenience of their property, while retaining the seamless functionality they offered to their clients. In addition, SunSTONE was adding new locations, and needed a website that would grow with their company.
To showcase the unique open living space and the modern craftsmanship of their apartments we chose to use large, high resolution images and subdued color tones. Tallgrass created impactful galleries with new functionality, dynamically linking the images to features that results in a website that is both sophisticated and contemporary. With new 3D renderings of their floor plans, browsers can also view the spacious and open living spaces it offers its families.
By reorganizing the site mapping and navigation, SunSTONE can now integrate new locations for future location additions.
