SharpEnd Designs has been designing for High Sierra Energy Foundation for over 15 years. Earth Day 2023 was an especially fun project. We designed a poster, bookmark, sticker, advertisements, and social media slides.

Created by Winter Wildlands Alliance, the ski kind campaign was born from a need for a Backcountry Responsibility Code, a set of guidelines to promote responsible winter recreation. Backcountry participation numbers increased due to resort restrictions and people looking for COVID-safe activities. Ski Kind provides tools that all users can learn from and take to heart. WWA hired SharpEnd Designs to design the logo and awareness toolkit. It was a fantastically fun project! Follow ski kind. on instagram.

Winter Wildlands Alliance is a "national nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting and preserving winter wildlands and a quality human-powered snowsports experience on public lands through education, outreach and advocacy."

It's been a pleasure working with this inspiring non-profit, and we've collaborated with WWA to create a new logo, two annual membership guide booklets, and several issues of Trail Break, their bi-annual newsletter. Winter Wildlands Alliance is a great example of a client that came to SharpEnd Designs with a strong brand already in place. SharpEnd enjoyed carefully executing a fresh design strategy while honoring the existing brand.

The Bodie Foundation is a non-profit dedicated to the preservation, interpretation, and public enjoyment of Bodie State Historic Park, Mono Lake Tufa State Natural Reserve, and Grover Hot Springs State Park.

Five consecutive President’s Awards from Toyota is a nearly impossible accomplishment for a dealership, but Perry Motors has managed to do it. This 3rd generation family-owned business has been in Bishop since 1947. They believe in giving their customers a great car buying experience every time. 

Perry Motors contacted Nils Davis Design (now SharpEnd Designs) in 2016 to redesign their logo and business branding. The client requested that the new logo design reflect the historical significance of seventy years of existence, and honor Perry Motors as one of the oldest businesses still thriving in Bishop. Classic, fresh, clean, historical and vintage were some of the adjectives used to describe what Perry Motors wanted. 

Ahh, logos. SharpEnd loves creating you. It's as simple as that. Logo design is creatively demanding, but highly rewarding. SharpEnd welcomes a challenge. Learn more about Keri's 4-step process. Scroll the page to see!
