“Next Generation of Development”
What we did: Online Application Development, Web Design, Custom Database Development
Dutchman Realty is an institution when it comes to land in the St. Charles and surrounding counties, they have been in the community for 20+ years. They came to Creative Anvil with a desire to bring a fresh approach to their online presence. They really wanted a design that would stand out within their industry, yet still logically provide all of the information that the user would need. Since Dutchman's focus is on the sale and acquisition of land, we decided to focus on imagery and colors that were reflective of that environment.
We developed a Web Application that allows Dutchman team members to both update properties and current news or events that are going on at Dutchman. The site is great resource for landowners that are looking to sell property or users that me be searching for the right piece of property to purchase.

Creative Anvil developed a site with a clearly defined navigation that allows users to easily determine what part of the site they want to go to (Commercial or Residential) while not having to overcomplicate the design. We are proud to have such highly talented firm listed as one of our clients.

“Print. Mail. Fulfill.”
Kopytek Inc. came to Creative Anvil looking totally revamp their identity starting with their new logo and flowing through to their new website. Having broke away from a previous franchise here in St. Louis, they were saddled with a pre-existing identity system that didn't really match the personality and professionalism of the firm. The team at Kopytek wanted an identity that showed their passion for printing while bringing a more contemporary look and feel to their mark.
We delivered a fun and vibrant solution for Kopytek that now truly reflects their vision and they can be proud of moving forward. Look for their new website launching at the end of April.

Straightline Technology Group came to Creative Anvil wanting an identity that was clean and current, but also represented a strong sense of movement. They wanted clients to know that their projects would be handled with efficiency in mind, but without cutting corners. The result was a mark with very clean lines, accentuating the straight upward direction of the logo, and reflecting the positive results that your company will see when you work with Straightline Technology Group.

As a parent company, Prologue Technologies posed the issue of being able to stand on it's own as a mark, but to also have the versatility to integrate well into the rest of the family of companies. The owners at Prologue Technologies really wanted to have a simple, yet distinguished, look that would not be out of style within a year of two.
What we did: Online Application Development, Web Design, Graphic Design
The Pipeline project was a fun one because the owners wanted to take a unique approach to a traditional market segment. Pipeline is a Transportation Management System (TMS) used in Supply Chain Management. The owners gave us the freedom to push the traditional bounds of the software industry (especially the TMS industry) and develop an identity that would truly stand out in the marketplace. We appreciated the creative latitude and delivered a mark that has given Pipeline an identity that "Wipes Out" the competition.

When the owners of PeaTot came to us, they described their vision of creating a community where parents could come to communicate with each other. They wanted an environment that was fun and inviting, a place where parents could talk to people who were going through the same things that you are. We feel that the identity that we developed for them really represents that. By using a fun, soft type treatment and incorporating smiling, happy kids we feel that we accurately depict what this company stands for. Please check out their site and see for yourself.

Scott Mosby and Mosby Building Arts are two names that are synonymous with excellence in the St. Louis area. With that being said, who else would they trust with the redevelopment of their new identity, but Creative Anvil. We were selected to update the established logo and identity system that Mosby had been using for years. They wanted to effectively integrate the Mosby name with their core business - home remodeling. We developed a signature style version of the Mosby name while tightly integrating it into a stylized image of a home. This gave the Mosby a current identity that more accurately represented the quality and craftsmanship that their company was built on.

Flat World Supply Chain, as it's name might suggest, is a Supply Chain Management firm based in St. Louis, Missouri. After meeting with their team and assessing their business goals, including their target market, we found that they would be in competition with much larger, more established companies, and therefore needed an identity that would give them credibility as they met with potential clients. We delivered an identity that accomplished these goals, while not alienating the other brands within the family. Flat World was so pleased with the results that they commissioned Creative Anvil to handle their complete marketing collateral system.

Botanical Heights represents the revival of a once thriving community on the south side of St. Louis, Missouri. The community came to us wanting a new identity that more accurately reflected the blossoming redevelopment that was happening the area. We feel that we accomplished this by incorporating a historical look and feel to the logo, but still injecting it with life, by using a vibrant color pallet that pays tribute to it's neighbor - the Botanical Gardens.
“Move Faster. Grow Taller. Go Anywhere”
The crew at Flat World Supply Chain came to us to help them gain some traction in the marketplace. As a relatively new player in a crowded marketplace, they needed a marketing piece that would effectively portray their professionalism, knowledge and industry experience, while differentiating themselves from their competitors.
As a newer company they also wanted to get the most bang for their buck, so we developed a piece that was flexible enough to serve more than one of their needs. This combination tri-fold brochure / pocket folder allowed the team at Flat World to use this piece as both an introduction to their services and as a delivery method for their proposals and market analysis.
This was a great example of getting to the heart of the client's needs and coming up with a customized solution that met their needs, including deliverables, timeline and budget.
Advantage Capital Partners is an innovative group of venture capital partnerships with offices in Missouri, Louisiana, New York, Texas, Florida and Washington, D.C., with affiliated offices in Alabama, Colorado and Wisconsin. They came to us to listen to their issues and try and develop a plan that would help them to unify their marketing efforts throughout their offices.
We evaluated the current state of affairs and formulated a plan to develop a unified set of marketing materials that would be implemented as the new company standard. This solution not only helped with establishing and maintaining brand consistency, it also greatly improved the efficiency in which the internal teams are able to put together materials for clients.
