Check out this beautiful pamphlet made by Primacy, with help from my lovely girlfriend Julia.  Check out her website at julialovemiller.com. Primacy is a creative marketing and technology company that works with universities (among many other clients) to boost their overall performance whether it be via website redesign, rebranding, marketing materials, etc. I really love the design of this "field guide" which is perfect to be handed out to prospective students to get a lay of the land at Regis University.

Here's some of the thumbnail sketches Julia did to help shape the final illustrations.

I love the texture of the paper. It's obviously a take on a topographic map (check out the random one I found to the right) . I remember my father gave me some maps for my favorite fishing holes when I was a teenager; I still have them tucked away in a file folder somewhere. It was like some one told me where all the sweets in the house were hidden. (YES, all sugary substances were tucked away in ill-lit corners of the basement up all the way up until the point I left for college) Anyways... great details!

That's a Jack-a-lope up there. It was my understanding that it was a special request from the university. A Jack-a-lope is "an American mythological creature that is a mix between a jackrabbit and an antelope."

I like this VW bus a lot, too. We ended up going to Langan Volkswagen dealership in Glastonbury, CT. It is a pretty special place, with old VW's strewn throughout the showroom and [airbrushed] hoods with awesome artwork hanging on display. Just a ways up the road, in this unassuming building was a bona fide VW museum. It was so unassuming that it took us three times to drive by it before I got out of the car, peered through a dusty window and saw 20 tons of shiny (and rusty) metal behind it.

Great illustration! Great design!
