We're proud to sponsor our longtime client The Eliot School of Fine & Applied Arts with this amazing event and other celebrations they have planned for their 350th (!!!) anniversary this year.

And the final installment… year 3 of our environmental graphics for Match Charter Public School 😅😅😅 — this time at the Match High School in Boston.

We took a collaborative approach working with the students in the Leadership Council. We collected all of their ideas and created a lobby mural and street-facing window graphics. Students helped conceptualize and art direct the work, shaping graphics that reflect who they are—while also learning about the design process along the way.

With our recent website launch, Match now has an accessible, differentiated brand system that will support marketing, enrollment, operations, family communication, and staff for years to come.

These murals and graphics make the brand more accessible within physical spaces, strengthen school culture, and cultivate unity across campuses.

We're excited to share phase two of the work we did for Match Charter Public School! Check out the fun and uplifting environmental graphics we designed for the Middle School in Jamaica Plain.

For a 6–8th grade audience, we elevated the visual brand with more mature, bold typography and multilingual messaging. The window graphics at the school’s entrance help welcome students and set the tone for the day, while the lobby design reinforces the school’s positive core values for students and staff.

Tomorrow, we’ll share part three — the high school!

Over the past three years, we’ve worked with Match Charter Public School in Boston to develop their brand and bring it into their physical spaces with vibrant graphics we've designed across three campuses and a gym! 😅

We unified the brand visuals across all campuses through graphics on the exteriors of each building and interior murals in the entrances of each school—all reinforcing Match’s core values: Identity, Intellect, and Ubuntu.

We worked on every phase of this project—from conceptualizing the spaces, to helping define messaging, to all facets of design, and coordinating installation.

Here is part 1 of the of the project: the elementary school campus and gym. We designed fun, colorful, multilingual murals that reflect the community and help students feel seen, welcomed, valued, and excited to learn.

Designing these pieces alongside the newly launched website allowed us to bridge the digital and physical worlds of the brand and really bring the visuals to life—and into the daily lives of the students, staff, and families.

I’m really proud of this work and grateful to the amazing team at Match for trusting us!

So proud of this launch!!! We partnered with Match Charter Public School in Boston to solve a major challenge: three outdated websites, an inconsistent brand identity, and no intuitive pathways for current families, prospective families, staff, or funders to find what they needed.

Our solution was to design a fresh visual brand and build a unified, clear, and exciting digital presence. The new website finally brings everything together, showcasing the full K–12 Match experience under one digital umbrella.

We streamlined navigation, clarified recruitment and enrollment, enhanced family resources, and ensured the website reflects the real Match community — its students, teachers, and energy. The site is designed to be fully accessible, responsive across all devices, easily translatable, and ADA-compliant so every family can easily find what they need.

The result: a distinct, cohesive, joyful, and easy-to-manage digital presence that dramatically strengthens Match’s brand, differentiates it from competitors, and simplifies communications for everyone involved.

More soon on how this work expanded into full environmental graphics across all three campuses! 😅

Artist spotlight! We've had the pleasure of collaborating with
for many years now. A fellow RISD grad, Amanda brings a rare blend of heart, craft, and creative fire to every project she touches.

From whimsical editorial illustrations to deeply expressive portraits (and some really odd requests we've made over the years!), Amanda’s work adds soul and storytelling to our design. She's our go-to whenever we need something imaginative, thoughtful, and beautifully executed.

Check out some of the incredible work she's created for us over the years 👇
