What We Do

Pattern Projects is a multidisciplinary design and branding studio specializing in experiential graphics, signage and wayfinding.

Brand Identity

We create, develop, and advance brand identity systems that are built to last. From foundational strategy to refined visual language, we shape identities that are distinctive, adaptable, and true to your story. More than just fonts, logos, and colors, we craft language and voice that give brands meaning and purpose.

Wayfinding

We design strategic sign systems that guide people through spaces with clarity and ease. Our approach blends function and design to not only improve navigation but also enhance the overall experience of a space.

Signage

From large-scale exterior installations to detailed interior systems, we create signage that engages users while clearly communicating essential information. With extensive experience in ADA, life-safety, and zoning requirements, we ensure compliance without compromising design. Whether permanent, adaptable, or temporary, we deliver signage solutions of every kind.

Experiential Graphics

We bring brand and place together through graphics that activate environments. From murals to spatial storytelling, site-specific installations to event interactions, our work creates meaningful connections between people and spaces. Our solutions range from subtle to overt — sometimes within the same project — always taking a holistic view that bridges overarching architectural and design intent with the lived experience of a space.

Signage Master Planning

We develop comprehensive sign programs for properties, mixed-use developments, campuses, institutions, and municipalities large and small. Our plans establish guidelines and standards that bring clarity, consistency, and long-term value. Designed to be flexible and scalable, they consider zoning, feasibility, and fabrication while balancing visibility with elevated design.

Retail

We create environments that translate brand into customer experience. Working within a client’s brand standards, we interpret and apply brand identity to the context of place. From exterior to interior, our approach builds cohesive experiences that engage, inspire, and invite people in.

Planning & Presentation

We create clear, compelling tools for communicating big ideas — from master plans and mixed-use development materials to financial prospectus books, pitch decks and everything in between. Thoughtfully designed, these materials don’t just inform, they persuade, inspire, and move projects forward.

Print

We design printed materials that carry brands with impact and detail. From brochures and posters to large-format applications, multi-piece collateral systems, and sales or promotional tools, our work spans every type of print. Beyond design, we manage production and printing to ensure craft, clarity, and consistency at every scale.

Packaging

We develop packaging systems that stand out on the shelf and reinforce brand identity. Our focus is on thoughtful structure, clear communication, and memorable design — always mindful of environmental responsibility and cost considerations that support the bottom line.

Websites & Digital Platforms

We extend brand expression into the digital world, creating cohesive and adaptable tools that engage audiences. From websites and ecommerce platforms to digital activations and communication systems, our work ensures every touchpoint reinforces the brand experience. Beyond design, we manage production and execution to deliver usability, scalability, and consistency across platforms.

Our Values

02

Curiosity

We approach every project with a beginner’s mind, open to discovering new worlds and perspectives. Asking “how” and “why” keeps us learning and uncovering insights that lead to better design. Curiosity is at the heart of what makes our work thoughtful and fresh.

Collaboration

We believe the best solutions come from working together. Partnering means bringing different strengths to the table and building on each other’s ideas. Our process is rooted in a “yes, and” spirit — always seeking to expand possibilities rather than narrow them.

Play

We don’t shy away from being a little silly. Laughter and lightness aren’t distractions, they’re often the spark for creativity. By keeping space for fun, we create an atmosphere where bold ideas and surprising solutions can thrive.
