Therapy wanted to acknowledge the changes and challenges of the pandemic by designing Limited Edition labels and posters for fresh vintages of their popular blended wines — Ego and Sip. We center on the average person and shine a light on the thoughts and feelings racing through their minds and frame them inside a crystal ball alluding to the uncertainty of what the future holds. Key pandemic dates and wine details place these limited edition designs at a turning point in history and help us remember that whatever the future brings, we wouldn’t have gotten there without all those on the front line keeping the world turning.

Raising funds to make a difference is an art form, and those we work with at the Royal Alexandra Hospital Foundation are masters on par with Rembrandt and Goya. They understand that it’s not only about raising critical funds for state-of-the-art new machines or funding innovative research — it’s also about the people behind the donations that make it all possible, their donors.
Nineteen (XIX) faced a problem of being too good for THEIR own good. The quality of service, textural quality of the restaurant interior, and the calibre of dishes they served made it intimidating for the casual diner.

The models’ expressions convey the happiness and almost playful nature of a child enjoying their favourite treat.
The Royal Alexandra Hospital Foundation provides life-changing philanthropic support for all medical excellence centres within the Royal Alexandra Hospital. The Royal Alex is home to the Lois Hole Hospital for Women, the CK Hui Heart Centre, and the Eye Institute of Alberta — each of these centres of excellence house many devoted doctors, nurses, frontline staff, and administrators doing vital work to ensure we as a community have the medical support we need. These areas of care denote a natural section structure for the reports which allow each department’s statistics, financials, and most importantly, success stories to shine.
ANVL is based on the idea that everyone is creative in one way or another. It’s a person’s unique experiences and perspective that make the ideas they have so valuable. We believe that if there is no vulnerability in what we make, then there is no creativity. This is the concept behind ‘brave creative’ – it’s not just about brave clients or bold ideas, it’s about embracing what makes us different and putting ourselves out there to create something new.
The ‘not so’ secret sauce is that this is not about us – it’s about you. So before we get to the fun creative bits, we need to learn and observe everything we can about you, you’re business, the industry you’re in, and your customers. To do that – we have a tried, tested, and true process that guides us through every project. While it may vary based on the type of project we are working on together, the core tends to remain a constant.
