J Fletcher Design - Graphic Design & Art Direction – Charleston, SC http://www.jfletcherdesign.com Tue, 15 Nov 2011 21:07:22 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en The Occupy Poster Project I was excited to be asked by printing pals The Half and Half to contribute to the Occupy Poster Project, and am even more excited to see the effort has enlisted some pretty serious help – James Victore, Art Chantry, and recent ADC Young Gun Dan Cassaro, to name a few of the occupiers…

The Occupy Poster Project was born out of a love for print. This seemed like the perfect opportunity to

Lots of exciting news to share, but I’ve been too busy to keep up with posting any of it. As the pile has grown, the task of presenting it all has become more and more daunting. So now, rather than hitting you with twenty annoying mini-posts, I figured I’d bazooka you with a single (but perhaps still equally annoying)…

Tucked away on charming Queen Street, Poogan’s Porch is one of Charleston’s oldest independent culinary establishments, with a fresh approach to Lowcountry cuisine. Recognized by Martha Stewart Living, Wine Spectator and The Travel Channel, this beautifully restored Victorian house is the perfect southern spot for lunch, dinner, or weekend brunch. Since opening in 1976, Poogan’s Porch has been a favorite of well-known celebrities, politicians, tourists and locals

In a nutshell, Visualive is a network of HDTVs located in businesses and public spaces around Charleston, all connected to a central interface – the Visualive.tv website. Think of…

A unique boutique for the board-riding super-freak, Ocean Surf Shop has all of the beach toys, gear and expert advice you’ll need to get on to the beach and into the waves.

Some cool stuff coming down…

Aside from celebrating the beginning of a lifelong adventure with my best friend (I’d be remiss to not mention the obvious), the occasion also gave me the rare chance to be my own client. Much to my fiance’s wife’s credit, she handed over full creative control of our invitations, saying simply “I’m sure I’ll love whatever you come up with.”

As much as it might have been fun to…
