Say hey to Slow Roses Cycling Club!
Slow Roses is a self directed fake brand/real design exercise I did for just for the funsies.
So basically, this one time I was listening to Bruce Springsteen’s absolute banger, Thunder Road and I misheard a lyric, (The Boss sang “throw roses” but I heard “slow roses”) and a little seed was planted.
I thought about a number of designy things I could turn Slow Roses into and finally landed on a fictional cycling club whose focus is on enjoying the journey over getting there fast or first. As someone who loves flowers almost as much as riding bikes it seemed like a natural fit.
So then I drew a buncha little rose and bike related scribbles, worked through some different mock-ups and this is where I landed. It’s fun to push an idea just a little further. Could I do even more? Yeah definitely, but here seemed like a good place to stop and show the Slow Roses.
Pedal the the petal.
Petal the the pedal.
Go slow and smell the roses.

CX CUP! Here is the design work I created for the Trek CX Cup this past October. I ❤️ CX and this event especially has been a fun one to participate in over the years. With the race literally in Trek’s own backyard and all the buddies racing it, it just felt all the more special to have a chance to throw down with some of my scribbles. Keeping the cow theme going, we brought this UCI race to life with new logos, lockups and illustrations, messaging by the one and only @samstagr_am and super bold color combinations. Deliverables upon deliverables included so much merch, label design for a beer specially brewed for the event, signage, start/finish, jerseys for the winners, a course fly-over and a sponsored set of barriers “beeriers”. Special shoutout to @lizlaughlove3000 for modeling the brew! So much fun with such a stellar team. Scroll to the very end of this thing to see “Dad at the race!” #cx #cyclocross #branding #visualidentitydesign #logodesign
Here is a recent sketch (in a variety of similar but not totally “the same” color combinations) for the upcoming Cyclocross Season! While Im not sure how much racing I will be doing, I am pretty stoked at the idea of it. Yay bikes #crossiscoming #cyclocross #cx #bikesarecool
