Lowell, MA - We wanted to find the best talent in the area. We looked for graphic designers, web developers, illustrators, and marketing superstars. We needed the strongest talent possible if we were to truly design a beautiful future for Lowell, for Lawrence, and where ever we dared to venture. It just so happened that it was our lucky day when we were introduced to miss Kate Delaney (www.Katedelaney.net.) Her work for El Taller, our meeting place, was obvious from the start. Her creative talent was on display everywhere and her journal full of gorgeous, hand-drawn masterpieces the like we had not seen. However, it was her strong focus on the restaurant industry that caught our attention.We knew we were staring at the future...
She received her BFA from the Massachusetts College of Art and Design and is currently a freelance designer and illustrator our of Lawrence, MA. Her work is a balanced blend of painting, print-making, and multi-media design. Her large scale murals are breathtaking, as are her logos, signage, and advertising strategy. Kate's solid resume also includes 3 dimensional floor plans, clever refurbished projects, delicious edible treats, and a strong list of clientele that includes Cafe Azteca, Pazzo Gelato, and of course El Taller, where she spends most of her time with her equally talented partner. Together, they turned El Taller into a prominent coffee shop and bookstore that is amongst the best locations in the city.
Our first project awarded to Kate was a poster for CITY OF PROMISE: Lawrence, part of a larger, underground movement to revitalize the city led my a prominent leader from Lawrence CommunityWorks. What she produced was way above our expectations and the client was of course, thrilled. It was the first of many projects, as we look forward to sending her many many many design jobs in the future! Next up? She will be partnering with Christian Hill Studios to launch the Best of Lawrence Awards sometime in 2014!! Stay tuned for that.
