Albany Symphony
Brand + website

The Albany Symphony is an orchestra with a bold, adventurous personality. We’ve created a new brand that embodies their spirit, including a new primary identifier with a signature statement-making A and dynamic “exuberant ribbon” and a vibrant color palette. New messaging highlights the distinctive strengths of the orchestra as a vital cultural anchor of New York’s Capital Region and a nationally recognized champion of innovative programs and new music. Our collaboration includes a soon-to-launch new website integrating Spektrix.

We contributed: research, strategy, design, messaging, collateral development, website, brand book

Congrats to MIT on the launch of three new websites! We collaborated with Music, Music Technology, and Theater to embody the forward-thinking excellence of these departments where mind meets heart and a spirit of inquiry meets artistic rigor.

Our work included a bespoke dual navigation system that lets users browse traditionally or explore by focus area; an immersive visual system that spotlights MIT’s compelling performance imagery and evokes MIT’s modern design history; a comprehensive content strategy, highlighting each program’s areas of focus, key courses, research projects, faculty, and events; and a robust WordPress development with custom calendar and content relationship system that reshuffles related material to fit the view a visitor has chosen.

Boston Philharmonic
2025-2026 season communications

In addition to the season brochure, we produced a series of postcards (left) and social media assets (right) to promote each program.

Lyric Opera of Kansas City
2025-2026 Season

For Lyric Opera of Kansas City, we created a cohesive set of evocative illustrations to be used across a range of media in both still and animated formats. After exploring a wide range of options and techniques, we applied our chosen direction to print, social, and web applications, bringing a compelling and cohesive visual story to a season of diverse offerings. Each program has own meaningful, appropriate, and compelling look while building brand equity—and enabling cross-selling between programs.

Our seventh edition of Now & Then, developed in collaboration with editor and Director of Strategic Communications, Max Pearlstein, uses a combination of reportage, interviews, and collages of community portraits to tell and show the story of Wheeler’s vibrant, connected, inclusive community. At just under 100 richly textured pages, the Spring 2025 issue of Now & Then delivers a complex, engaging, and meaningful collection of stories to an engaged alumni community. We’re thrilled to be in our eighth year of collaboration with the team at Wheeler.
