It seemed like a good
idea at the time … and it was.
FOE was born from the adrenaline-fueled mind of Taylor Leigh, a professional extreme sports athlete who transitioned into a design school graduate with an unyielding desire to push design to the edge. He injected his risk-versus-reward philosophy into a company that’s dead-set on shattering the boundaries of conventional branding. In Taylor’s words, ‘If it doesn’t make you a little uncomfortable, it’s not progressive enough.’ To be innovative and unique, you need a strong dedication to creative design methods, and clients who are willing to embrace a mix of risk and high-caliber design.
Be smart.
Blue sky starts with down-to-earth. Before we let our imaginations go wild, we do a detailed and methodical analysis of your product, your brand and your opportunity. An enduring brand is built on a strong foundation.
Be different.
We hear it all the time: “we want something different, like our competition…” You’ll quickly discover that “same old, same old” isn’t in our vocabulary. With the homework done right, and the opportunity defined, we’ll shatter the norm.
Be visionary.
The only thing equal to branding that is different, is branding that endures. What makes you stand out today has to take you beyond tomorrow. A brand voice and visual assets that inspires over time is key to building loyalty and company growth.
