Family. Business.: Randy (RJ) Banowetz and Dance the Night Away Productions

When you happen to be one of fifteen kids, you end up with siblings in a wide range of industries. Thus it is with our agency leader, Leon Banowetz, and his family. And being the design and advertising guru in the mix, Leon is quick to lend his creative expertise to the other “Team Banowetz” when it comes to branding their endeavors.

Recently, Leon’s younger brother, Randy, was in need of a logo and business cards for his DJ business, Dance the Night Away Productions. Randy’s happy with how we put a spin on his new business, and we hope it helps him land a lot of gigs. Check out the final logo and cards below.

Fall Fashion and Fiftieth Salute: NorthPark’s never looked so good

Unless you’ve been hiding under a rock in Dallas (or not reading our blog!), you’ve likely heard that our client, NorthPark Center, is celebrating their fiftieth anniversary this fall. As one of the many projects that we’ve helped to execute as part of this monumental milestone, we’ve recently wrapped up the fall campaign book. All of the images in this perfect-bound piece were shot at the stunning Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art in Bentonville, Arkansas. Not only are the masterworks housed by the museum exquisite, but the architecture that houses them is as well. The combination of this spectacular location and the striking designer looks for fall resulted in a finished piece that is rich with captivating images.

The book was mailed to over 70,000 homes in the DFW area, and can also be found throughout the shopping center for patrons to enjoy. If you haven’t gotten your hands on one yet, we suggest grabbing one for your coffee table the next time you’re at NorthPark. But don’t wait too long — they are flying off the stands. In the meantime, here are a few pages from the finished piece for you to enjoy.
