Concept to Creation
A closer look at how we design, build, and deliver. From strategy and visuals to production and execution, this is where the work comes alive.
Stairway to [Disco] Heaven
Damian DeAngelis let us color on the walls again — this time on the stairway leading up to Point 5. We created a disco paradise that climbs alongside you to the dreamy upstairs lounge.
Nine One Five is one of Key West’s beloved eateries that boasts not only excellent dinner fare, but a cozy lounge upstairs, cleverly dubbed Point 5. The second story spot gives the sophisticated cocktail sipper a perfect blend of funky hidden gem meets old Key West disco scene and it is for sure one of our favorite late night hangs. If you find yourself upstairs and go to the left to the back deck, you’ll find one of our earlier mural installations, circa 2015. An abstract portrait of a lady’s face that adds to the color and ambiance of this vibey watering hole.
Roof Deck Mural Upstairs at Point 5, Circa 2015
More recently, owner operator, Damian DeAngelis let us color on the walls again — this time on the stairway leading up to Point 5. We created a disco paradise that climbs alongside you to the dreamy upstairs lounge. Kristyn LaMoia, Marky Pierson, Susannah Wells and Jack McDonald tag teamed the concept and installation.
Concept Design with color palette
We’re jazzed about the finished product (and though we didn’t think it possible) nine one five and Point 5 just got that much cooler (and more colorful)!

What happens when a Chicken and an Iguana fall in love?
Chiguana is a lifestyle brand based in Key West Florida that embodies a carefree and independent mindset. This sportswear line based in the Southernmost City asks the unique question, what does happen when a chicken and iguana fall in love?
We loved working with Bill & Feliz, the masterminds behind this fun-loving product line. Our team shot photo and video on a photo safari around some of Key West’s iconic landmarks. The new media went toward a website revamp, helping this crew rebuild their online presence and reach more people who need to know… really, what happens when these two critters mash up?
Check out what Chiguana is up to here and snag some of the irreverent Key West style while you’re at it!

BEER! Fresh Designs for the Southernmost Brewery
First Flight Brewery is the southernmost brewery in the United States. They offer new flavors of locally brewed libations every season. From I.P.A’s to a Citrus Wheat to Red Ale, they’ve got something for everyone.
The brewery is located on the corner of Caroline and Whitehead Street in Downtown Key West in the home of the original Pan Am Airlines building. Pam Am’s first tickets were sold out of this very building!
The names of the brews tie into the unique Key West vibe: Beach Day IPA, Flying Rooster IPA and just a hop, skip and a jump away - the Havana Red Ale.
Before it was First Flight, this southernmost brewery was known as Kelly’s, after famed actress Kelly McGillis. The Maverick I.P.A. is a nod to one of her big hits, Top Gun.
Check out First Flight Brewery and Island Restaurant in Key West for a delicious meal in a beautiful garden atmosphere and of course, for a locally brewed delight!
