Look Here First!
For a rack card like this, we needed to be intentional with the design’s visual hierarchy and informational flow. This means that even while ECS’ rack card has a lot of information in a small amount of space, we used elements of design––like typography, color, and size––to guide viewers’ eye to the most important information first, without feeling overwhelmed or cluttered.
Design with a Purpose
We know that rack cards need to be memorable and helpful or they will be skimmed and disposed of, so we pulled from our understanding of audience and community appreciation to clearly convey information to an audience in need of resources, better care, and more direct communication.
Connecting Community
Our team brings a professional approach rooted in equity and deep listening to each project. When ECS came to us for this rack card, we took time to truly understand their team’s goals for developing this rack card, and used our skillset in design, branding, and communication to ensure our combined intention came across.

Absolutely! We tend to work within existing brand guidelines. This helps ensure your materials feel like an extension of your brand.
Is there a difference between print and digital design?

Can you print materials?
While we don’t do in-house printing, we can help you get your materials printed! This includes having final printed materials sent to you or printed near you for pickup. In the design process, we ensure your files are prepared to be sent to printers by ensuring correct sizing, bleeds, and file packaging.
