nViZiA, Virtual Infrastructure Solutions!
Ron Michel of nViZiA Technologies commissioned REPUBLIC for the design & implementation of his new company logo & business cards (for now).
If you know anything about Virtualization, Data Storage, Data Back-up, and Disaster Recovery, you know concepts like reliability and replication of data is absolutely key! As such, the inspiration for the nViZiA logo! The shapes are designed to instill a feeling of replication (as the shapes are replicating in a circle), and Virtualization, in itself, is a green technology.
Thanks to Ron Michel for his relentless pursuit of perfection...

Ecco Ultra Lounge
(from Left to Right)
Dj Colette, Me, Tom Nicholas (of "American Pie" the movie series).
REPUBLIC took a little detour Wednesday night to Check out the ecco-friendly nightclub appropriately titled: "Ecco, Ultra Lounge".
With features like energy-efficient LED lighting, organic cocktails and "waterless" urinals the principals of Ecco left no stone unturned from conception to completion in the design of Los Angeles' 1st "green" nightclub. Everything from the paint on the walls to the cement on the floor is Eco-friendly.
The Ecco Ultra Lounge identity/logo has simple-yet-sophisticated symmetry that goes a very long way to emphasize all it stands for. Oh, & it looks cool as well!

"Design is a means to communicate the essence of a subject. It is a way to differentiate brand values by making the complex, simple: the opaque, transparent; the unstructured, concrete; the obtuse, accessible; the ordinary, beautiful, and the message, memorable, (Kit Heinrichs, PENTAGRAM, 2009)."

JAIME & LULIE HAVE REACHED THE BIG 40
Thanks to Jaime & Lulie for soliciting REPUBLIC in the design & implementation of their "JAIME&LULIE HAVE REACHED THE BIG 40" birthday party invitations & R.S.V.P. cards (as well as remittance envelopes).
Of specific note, the (red) letter "J" in Jaime's name, along with the two (red) "L's" in Lulie's name, are the exact same shape, design, (& color), as the number "40". Bet you didn't catch that, huh?! It's fun, festive, sleek, modern, and adds a touch of class to these already awesomely classy people.
REPUBLIC design company... It's all about the details!

Poster
Program
Wine Glasses
Event Flyers
Name Badge
(Letterhead)
-Especially rewarding was the liberty we took to develop a consistent/complimentary message of this calibre, (being this-the first event of it's kind to Downtown Oxnard). A trifecta of delectable food, delicious wine, and delightful art demands distinction through distinguished design, (say that three times fast).
Special thanks to the Event Committee Members:
Armando Casillas
Jennifer Casillas
Sue Chadwick
John Kearney
Kate Koslosky
Linda le Brock

Thanks to you all for your kind words and support...

KETCHUP ON SUNSET...
Located on the ever-famous Sunset Boulevard within the Sunset Millennium complex, REPUBLIC had the opportunity to sit down and grub @ the ultra trendy Ketchup this Sunday evening. With it's bright neon red lights, it's practically impossible to miss!
Try the "Naw' Leans Shrimp Pasta"! Excellent! Be careful of the Andouille Sausage, 'cause it's deliciously spicy!
Menu: KetchupMenuLink
If ever on Sunset (West LA) Ketchup is not a bad place to visit. Here are a few shot's I took at the end of the night.

BREWERY ART WALK!
REPUBLIC had the opportunity to stop by the Brewery Artwalk today (April 18th). This awesome event is a twice annual open studio weekend at the worlds largest art colony, where over 100 resident artists participate! During this event, patrons have the opportunity to see new works, discover new favorites, speak with the artists and even purchase artworks directly from the artists at studio prices!
BE ADVISED! Some of the images are extremely graphic, disturbing, and outright disgusting! Art has many modes and evokes different feelings to the viewer. "Beauty (or lack thereof) is in they eye of the beholder..."

REPUBLIC at Custom Hotel, LA, CA, All day!
"A sleek, classically modern boutique hotel at the gateway to Los Angeles..."
Special thanks to Brandell, Custom Hotel Sales Manager, for showing REPUBLIC a good time last weekend. Always a pleasant experience at this fantastic hotel.

Park 'n' Ride
The California Strawberry Festival approached REPUBLIC for the design of their Strawberry Express, Park 'n' Ride Suttle Stop maps (amongst a slate of design projects we are currently working on for the Non-profit).
As the California Strawberry Festival grows in popularity, so does their attendance. As such, a carefully designed map of the City of Oxnard was created in order to support the influx of traffic during this busy weekend.
Improved traffic conditions and reduced energy consumption with strategic placement of pick-up/drop-off points, go to further exemplify the California Strawberry Festivals commitment to setting the "green" standard in Eco-Aware consciousness.
