THE WORK
Coastal Cleveland Apparel
Coastal Cleveland is a lifestyle & apparel brand sold in various boutiques along the Cleveland coastline. A former art educator, turned blogger, created the brand to share her love of the Cleveland coast with anyone that was willing to tag along. She reached out in 2020 for a fresh brand identity and we have been collaborating on various projects ever since.
