Tradeshow promotion: These promotional items were all produced in conjunction with a tradeshow event that revolved around a golf theme. The pre-show mailer had a call-to-action for attendees to show up at the booth for a free golf lesson that would be videotaped and given to the individual. In addition, a contest was held for people who provided business cards. The winner of the contest would be flown to an exclusive golf resort to play with the pro on his home turf. We utilized the colors of the brand for the tees, had the logo imprinted on golf balls, custom produced a embroidered hat and had a golf towel created.
LODESTAR tradeshow promotion: This particular promotional piece was born out of an existing ad campaign that highlighted the "20-year track record" of the company. LODESTAR creates billing software for the energy industry so it only made sense to stretch the campaign into an energy drink. The energy drinks proved to be a big hit at the tradeshow.
Various T-shirt designs: The Pittsburgh Penguin shirts were a successful line of shirts for numerous sports teams and utilized a puff ink technique that gave it a dimensional effect. We have designed many lines of shirts for clients like Fila, Adidas, M&M Mars, Reebok, Converse, Apex, Pepsi, Cyrk and many more. In fact, sales for Cyrk shirts alone produced over 1 million in sales.
Van Houtte Coffees and Chevron: DS Design Studio was pursued by Van Houtte Coffees to design a car wrap for a ExtraMile Co-Brand Campaign with Chevron. The success of the promotion allowed us to design many more vehicle wraps for Van Houtte and their subsidiary brands.

CD packaging: This unique packaging was created for a tradeshow. The client was a sponsor of the show so the packages were inserted in a collateral pack for attendees. The event was in New Orleans so we decided to put together a package that suited the theme of the town. The promotional text for the piece indicated that LODESTAR was the "Sound Choice". Credits go to Charlie R. for the terrific graphic work and packaging design credits go to Dave S.
