After years of planning and construction Whatcom Museum’s much-anticipated, and already iconic, Lightcatcher Building is set to open this weekend (Herald article). To help spread the word and stir up some curiosity we developed two TV ads. The ads are currently running in the Seattle area and Whatcom County and were shot & edited by our friends at Hand Crank. (Click the YouTube logo to watch them in HD.)
We just completed a great project with Downtown Renaissance to brand and promote the annual Downtown Bellingham holiday campaign. There are a lot of great events happening now through Christmas, visit the 12 Days of Christmas page to see it all. And don’t forget, free parking Downtown during the lunch hour through Dec. 31.
I’ll be honest, I miss trick-or-treating… a lot. As a kid I was ruthlessly efficient at making my way through the neighborhood knowing exactly which homes to skip in order to maximize my returns with the more generous houses (like the older retired couple who would hand out full size candy bars!)
So another year removed from our childhood trick-or-treating days, FLIR Creative lives vicariously through this new poster for Downtown Renaissance Network and all the lucky kids who will get to dress up and fill their plastic jack-o-lanterns with gobs of free candy from generous downtown businesses.
Garys’, a clothing retailer and fixture of downtown Bellingham, is celebrating 30 years of business. FLIR Creative got to celebrate with Garys’ by creating advertising, mailings and updating the website to promote their anniversary sale, benefit fashion show and in-store designer appearance.
Below is the just completed Art Walk identity and poster series – the latest in an series of projects we’ve been working on with Downtown Renaissance.

The Bite of Bellingham takes place this Saturday from 12-4 downtown on the 1200 block of Cornwall. Bring a few extra dollars with you and pick-up the limited edition 2008 Bite of Bellingham shirt that FLIR Creative designed. The shirts come in two flavors: Fudgsicle or Creamsicle. Mmmmmm….
As the seasons change, so do the Downtown Renaissance Network window display banners. Stop by the Information Station near the corner of Holly and Cornwall this winter and take a peak at the new banners FLIR Creative just finished. See the Fall ‘07 posters we designed here.
