Imelda's and Louie's Twofer

It seems last month Explore the Pearl neglected to place one of our ads for Imelda's. This month we're getting to run two ads to make up for this little oversight. Amos Hunter took some photos and we wrote some fun headlines to go with them. Hopefully they'll show up in this months edition!

Clean Energy Works Portland

The City of Portland along with some utility sponsors are piloting a unique program, Clean Energy Works Portland. It involves selecting 500 homeowners who would like to see their home receive an energy efficiency overhaul...new windows, furnace, insulation, appliances, etc. What makes this program unique is all the costs are financed through the homeowners utility bill. This eliminates one of the biggest obstacles, money up front, that prevents homeowners from taking action. We created this direct mail piece to be sent out to potential candidates and begin the selection process.

We were working on some ideas for the Portland Timbers new MLS launch and one of the thoughts was to go out and pick some fights with our rivals. The Seattle Sounders was our first choice for this little customized traveling bill board.

Hartman & Forbes Website

The long awaited Hartman & Forbes website launched today! Sam Leinen and Ryan O'Rielly have been working hard the last few weeks ironing out all the details and programming issues to make the August 1st deadline. This site is one of the most comprehensive sites we've done...lots of components and very content rich. In other words, lots of places to screw it up! It comes on the heels of a 200 plus page catalog we designed for H&F. I'm anxious to see how it'll be received by the client and interior designers who'll be using the catalog and website.
