The Client Need:
PBRV needed a comprehensive brand refresh and consistent visual identity that could scale across diverse projects and platforms. Beyond traditional design work, the role required close collaboration with engineers and programmers to develop web-based tools and visualizations, often funded by government and by organizations like Housing BC. Success meant executing both high-level brand strategy and technical implementation while managing stakeholder relationships and securing new projects/funding through presentations and proposals.

The work established PBRV as a trusted resource across all stakeholder levels—from government agencies to engineering professionals—while creating enduring tools that continue to serve the community’s needs.
FyF Corp:
As a sister company of PBRV Consulting based in Chile; F&F Corp was in need of a brand refresh and website that could accommodate audiences from both Spanish and English speaking countries. The logo was based on the original company logo which only existed as a low-res rasterized image. Through focus on geometry, details and typography, the brand standards were strengthened and positioned F&F Corp as trusted experts in Chile.
Deliverables:
Brand Refresh, Stationery, Web Design, Web Development, HTML, CSS, WordPress
SlabBit:
SlabBit is a tool that helps engineers with design considerations and calculations. A brand was needed in order to communicate and represent the tool on a variety of mediums. A simple, type centralized design was chosen in order to fit nicely in toolbars and scale up to fit a wide variety of contexts.
