Evolution Window Wrap

Stoked to have the opportunity to design a window wrap for Evolution Bike Shop, here in Whistler, BC.

The project involved 4 window panels. 2 showing The Coastal Crew's new movie,  From the Inside Out, in conjunction with 2nd Base Films and Rock Shox, premiering Fall 2011. And the other 2 panels were reserved for Sram, Rockshox, Avid and Truvativ that would include product showing through from inside the store.

Designing is like problem solving and although I had a lot of freedom with this one, it was still a challenge making it fit, stand out, include all the right logos etc. and coming up with a theme that would keep the 2 displays seperate but tied together.

I decided that the Coastal Crew are like a small pack of wolves....searching, scoping, digging and sniffing around in the woods on their bikes. The design consists of a "woods" theme with layering, texture, appropriate colour palettes, an epic photo by Nicholas Teichrob, some forest animals(a squirrel collecting derailleurs) and voila! Heres what I came up with....

final design

managed to get a photo before she comes down....bit glarey in the afternoon sun though :(



Overall, a challenging but fun project. Happy to have learned in the process too...always!
