Graphic Design By: Zach Gauthier
Research • Capstone paper- Evolution- past, present, future. • Researched about my client’s company- Home Craftsman, LLC • Had to find out information about my Client, had to find a client and also find a mentor.
My Client • Owner- James Heisterkamp • About- Before he started his own company he worked for a company called Dow Chemical as an Applications Engineer. • He started his company Home Craftsman, LLC by himself in 1995. • He works with clients to meet what they want and what the space allows.
The company Home Craftsman, LLC • What the company does- Full service Contractor, Plumbing, flooring, painting (inside), remodel, cabineting, furniture pieces, and “Built Ins”.
Working with the Client • Phone calls-3 • Had daughter talk with him as a middle man. • Personal interactions- I had several interactions with Mr. Heisterkamp and asked him what exactly his company needed. • What we decided- We came up with that he needed a new logo a flyer, and a business card.
Software I used • Adobe Photoshop cs 5 • Adobe Illustrator
What I came up with • Business card
Why I chose this • I chose this lay out because I wanted to base everything on the focus of construction and on the business of its self. (This was the rough draft for the business card.
Interactions with client • All these are pictures sent to me that they wanted me to put together for the flyer, and have a description of exactly what it is that the company does.
Interactions with Mentor • This is what I sent to my Mentor and asked her what I should add and remake
Interactions with Mentor • This is what she told me to critique.
The Logo • MY client said he loved the new logo.
Why I chose this • The reason I chose this was because it was a nice sleek design that was easy to read and interrupt. The client and I both liked this design and he agreed with it and went with it.
Conclusion • What I learned- How to interact with clients, figuring out wants, needs and desires. • How to get a mentor • The exact process that graphic designers have to go through. • Learned how to present my product.
Thank you • Thank you for your time, patience, and consideration.
