FROST: Brand Identity
BACKGROUND
As Creative Director for FROST, an upscale boutique/luxury retail bakery, my role has been to create a dynamic and memorable brand that carries through each and every guest touchpoint whether in-store or online. Design work for the brand includes all aspects of branding and identity, packaging design, product and merchandise design, store layout and interior design, and more. My FROST packaging designs won the 2011 Paper Packaging Council Excellence Award.
FROST garnered local and national media attention with editorial spreads in Sunset Magazine, Seattle Met Magazine, 425 Magazine, and others. It has also been featured on TV news and local interest shows such as New Day Northwest. FROST was also featured as a contestant on the Food Network TV show, “Donut Showdown”, winning first place.
Seattle Metropolitan Magazine raves about the concept:
"The doughnut sensation of the decade just might be this little sleeper from Mill Creek, which expanded to Bellevue, Everett, and soon South Lake Union. Thank heavens for that, as FROST makes some of the very best doughnuts we've ever tried (if Seattle Met's taste test is to be believed that is: FROST swept both our first- and our second-place categories for its Salted Caramel Old Fashioned and Smoky Bacon Maple Bar, respectively.) In recent years FROST has expanded into macarons and individual cakes (both sporting the same exuberance in flavor as the doughnut brethren) and even lunch soups and sandwiches."
