Cafe Momentum is building a powerful nationwide network of restaurants serving as launchpads for justice-involved youth to heal, grow and lead.
Our team is proud to have supported their vision with strategy, storytelling and tools that help make that impact visible and scalable.
Café Momentum has a revolutionary model for justice-involved youth—a fully paid, 12-month internship where restaurants serve as the unlikely yet powerful backdrop for building life skills, confidence and experiences that springboard into lifelong success and social trust.

Café Momentum was poised for national expansion and wide-scale narrative change, but the brand and value proposition needed to reflect the future of where they were headed.
Two competing identities—Momentum Advisory Collective and the Café Momentum restaurants—were creating confusion and diluting impact. We needed a unified brand architecture that could scale with clarity and purpose.

Two competing identities—Momentum Advisory Collective and the Café Momentum restaurants—were creating confusion and diluting impact. We needed a unified brand architecture that could scale with clarity and purpose.
We kicked off with an intensive Project Design Sprint at Cafe Momentum’s Dallas HQ—diving deep into their model, mission and momentum. Together, we unpacked the big questions: Which funders most align with the work? Which audiences will help it grow? What partnerships will move the needle? What’s getting in the way of our vision?
Our immersive Project Design Sprint process helped us surface what made the model so powerful—and what it would take to scale it with integrity. The result: a bold Project Plan filled with strategies, assets and catalytic ideas to power national expansion.

Core values matter most when they move beyond posters and into practice. We helped Cafe Momentum refresh their values to reflect the heart of their model—connecting their impact with the rhythms of the restaurant industry.
Through collaborative workshops, we shaped values that align the team, inspire action and stay grounded in the real, daily work of transformation.

Just like life, cooking is messy and imperfect. We built a visual brand system inspired by the intensity of the kitchen and the tenderness of transformation. Custom illustrations, layered textures and typography as intentional as every dish.

To unify the brand, connect national locations and simplify online engagement, we partnered with web development agency Plank to create a new, high-performing website that brings the refreshed brand to life online.
The new site not only showcases the updated visual identity and messaging but also serves as a key unification element. It provides a more user-friendly approach for diners and supporters to have a greater impact in communities nationwide.

It’s the spring of 2025 and AI has exploded onto the scene, influencing global businesses at every level.

Playlab wasn’t telling their most powerful stories. The opportunity to make a transformative impact on education is obvious when you talk to its founders, but far less evident when interacting with their existing website. When Playlab learned it had the opportunity to pitch some of the world’s largest funders, they recognized the need to better communicate the change-making nature of their work, and quickly.

In under 30 days, Black Sheep and Playlab partnered to overhaul the visual brand, redesign key website pages and reimagine how their tech and community impact are communicated. To get there, we immersed ourselves in the platform—interviewing users, exploring tools and developing case studies and video testimonials that spotlight real educators and the transformative power of Playlab’s AI in the classroom.

Black Sheep based our website design on the same concept as Playlab’s platform: the joy and excitement of digital creation. An all-new bank of custom illustration and iconography lent playfulness to the experience, while chunky headlines and subtle animations like flashing cursors and overlapping shapes highlighted the fun inherent in the product.

The United Domestic Workers of America (UDW) is a 45-year-old union that supports the 170,000+ workers who provide high-quality home and child care to children, seniors and people with disabilities, allowing Californians to live with dignity and independence. UDW is also a social justice union fighting to create a world where equality and dignity are possible.
The critical care work that UDW members perform has historically been under-valued by society despite the skill and dedication it requires. Black Sheep partnered with UDW to break misperceptions, amplify the value of members' work and enhance awareness of their vital role in community-based social justice initiatives.
We developed an updated UDW logo, color palette and photography style to empower their storytelling. We also produced a video series that explores the lives of UDW members for a digital ad campaign, showing Californians the value of care work.
Every campaign needs a home base. We designed a campaign landing page to inform and inspire the public about UDW’s mission and community advocacy. The powerful photography and member testimonials included were designed to resonate with visitors and encourage them to take action.
We ran a multi-channel digital ad campaign to boost the captured video narratives of UDW members and expand awareness of the union's mission. The campaign successfully leveraged Meta, Youtube and StackAdapt for video and display ads. By utilizing a data-driven approach, we were able to optimize our messaging for maximum impact, generating millions of impressions and video views.

We helped Fund For Teachers implement their brand with a new website, social media content, email marketing and events. To this day, they’re still supporting teachers through the incredible community they built together.
Fund for Teachers came to us seeking an updated brand that would foster long-term relationships as it grew. We developed and implemented not just a refreshed brand but also a related identity that united its community of supporters and educators.
Fund for Teachers occupies a unique space, providing professional development and funding self-directed Fellowships for teachers to grow. They needed a brand that showed they go beyond sporadic grant applications—they are community builders.
Inspired by the Ramsden Sextant, a navigation tool for sailors exploring uncharted waters, the new brand expresses how teachers help students navigate the world by pushing the boundaries of their own knowledge.
We wanted Fund For Teachers to feel like a true alliance of like-minded peers. The Ramsden Project was created so Fellows can connect, support and learn from each other.

Stages is a Houston arts institution dedicated to telling inclusive human stories that invite everyone to live more deeply and love more boldly. They needed a fresh yet timeless rebrand to match their impressive new theater, The Gordy.
We created a bold identity that blends light and dark to reflect theater's transformative power: a pull-string sign that glows neon purple against a black background, symbolizing the shift from light to dark in the theater.

Houston’s parks are a point of pride for our whole city. That’s why we helped the Houston Parks Board mobilize Harris County voters around a bond proposition that would fund bigger and better greenspace for all.

To catch attention, this campaign had to come straight from the heart. Where many digital ads cut straight to the point, we started with subtler messages about loving parks and re-targeted specific audiences, building up to that “Vote YES!” message over time.

We’re grateful for the chance to support the Project HOMES team and their groundbreaking work—because people shouldn’t have to choose between their basic needs and their recovery.
We’re grateful for the chance to support the Project HOMES team and their groundbreaking work—because people shouldn’t have to choose between their basic needs and their recovery.
Project HOMES is a first-of-its-kind study—and the nation’s largest—seeking to understand how housing and medication can support recovery from opioid use. We built them a warm, welcoming brand identity that matched their passion and deep care for people in recovery.

We spoke with recovery housing managers, who told us firsthand that people taking medication for their recovery face stigma within that community as well as beyond it. Due to that, they are often excluded from the“typical” recovery process. Together, we agreed: if addiction looks different for everyone, recovery should too.

Community makes recovery less isolating. That’s what inspired the Project HOMES brand, especially the logo’s theme of conversation and safe shelter. The warm colors and rounded edges create a welcoming, cozy environment.

We developed a messaging strategy and internal guide to support housing managers and ensure every touchpoint felt connected. The language is both compassionate and evidence-based, with a down-to-earth tone that’s still firm.

Plant it Forward will forever inhabit a special place in Houston. We’re excited to see them grow their CSA and allow many more people to taste their amazing harvests that support their remarkable local farmers. In the meantime, we’ll be rooting for them over a big salad bowl of their delicious arugula.

Plant It Forward brings a vibrant, global mix of produce to tables across the Houston area—straight from sustainable urban farms run by former refugees. Their farm share program needed a boost in awareness and fresh visuals to provide fertile ground for growth and scale.
Props to Big Dipper Creative for their great logo work!

We needed to help Plant It Forward reach and keep new CSA member audiences. Sometimes folks joined and stumbled, wondering what to do with that veggie they’d never heard of in their farm box. Our challenge was to build a marketing strategy and collateral that helped gain new farm share supporters and retain existing memberships.

While Plant it Forward offers more pickup spots than any other farm share in the city in some of Houston’s favorite bars, restaurants and bodegas, our secret shopping uncovered that the pick-up experience wasn't as easy and consistent as it could be. We created eye-catching signage to draw attention and help CSA members find their veggie shares. Produce guides, postcards and swag pieces were also developed to help members learn how to use their pickups and feel connected to their local suppliers.

The tagline reinforces the news team's two key goals. The first: do the necessary work to shine a light on injustice and hold the powerful accountable. The second: reach historically underserved communities in ways that reflect and represent the diversity of Houston, providing the information needed to drive change.

Houston Landing is a new nonprofit news outlet for Houston voices and stories. Seeing the need for more accurate local reporting and to fill the gaps larger groups overlook, the Houston Landing team needed an identity that would establish them as Houston's go-to local news outlet while staying true to their thoughtful, nonpartisan and reliable values.

We began with a discovery and research process to understand the local news landscape and larger cultural trends for both news media and Houston. We knew their brand identity had to be authentically Houston while carefully differentiated from other outlets—walking a tightrope between signaling something new and matching the energy of the city. After running moodboard and visual exercises with the client, we began our creative process in our notebooks.

Based on conversations with the client, we focused our attention on a variety of wordmarks and H-based icons. The 'H' in Houston is important. We leaned into our H-Town pride and developed logo options that would stand apart from competitors yet would be immediately welcomed by the community.

The new logo is arranged with blocks of content that are always in motion, reflecting the dynamic energy of Houston itself while resembling the lines and columns of a newspaper article. The colored squares also represent the diverse communities being highlighted in Houston Landing's reporting.

It was important that the Houston Landing website reflected the mission and vision of the organization and would be accessible to all. We worked with Digital Citizen to design an intelligent and thoughtful landing page that brings the brand to life on desktop and mobile platforms. With the launch of the website, Houston Landing was ready to publish their first articles and begin connecting with their new readers.

We paired the logo with a unique palette of colors and font families, stepping away from a traditional approach and creating a visual language that feels unexpected, compelling and engaging.

We designed a flexible identity that embraces the brand system's range of color and typographic styles. The use of graphic assets creates a dynamic collection of collateral and swag that carries the integrity and professionalism of the brand.

It was important that the Houston Landing website reflected the mission and vision of the organization and would be accessible to all. We worked with Digital Citizen to design an intelligent and thoughtful landing page that brings the brand to life on desktop and mobile platforms. With the launch of the website, Houston Landing was ready to publish their first articles and begin connecting with their new readers.

In the midst of a global pandemic, Good Reason Houston made free pre-K feel like a path to success for families under immense pressure. With a vibrant, collaborative, evolving campaign — accessible to parents, exciting for kids — we saw enrollment numbers increase across nine districts.
In the midst of a global pandemic, Good Reason Houston made free pre-K feel like a path to success for families under immense pressure. With a vibrant, collaborative, evolving campaign — accessible to parents, exciting for kids — we saw enrollment numbers increase across nine districts.
Good Reason Houston had an ambitious goal: to get back to pre-COVID enrollment numbers in just three years. Parents were dealing with a million issues at once. Districts were facing uncertainty. Despite the chaos, we stayed curious and learned something big: that free pre-K programs across the region are high-quality, family-centered and can prepare kids for a better education through the rest of their life.

We did more than refresh the campaign. We made it fun. We kept it inclusive, accessible and as joyful as childhood itself. We put families’ changing needs first, evolving our campaign over time based on current events and changing priorities. We made creative toolkits for districts and shared our learnings with other local organizations.

At the core of this campaign is a trusted partnership. Good Reason Houston was shown to be a leader and connector between districts, communities and organizations like Families Empowered. One year into the work, we’ve laid a stable foundation for more experimentation and collaboration—so more children, from any background, can Go Somewhere!

Here at Black Sheep, we all already know what makes Downtown Houston so great. So how do you create an engagement campaign that helps people embrace their love for their hometown? We needed to shift our thinking from Downtown as a place, to Downtown as an entity with BIG personality. All the imperfection, the wildness, the uniqueness and the weirdness. The Meet Downtown campaign builds a personality that reflects these qualities, and asks Houstonians to embrace their affinity for Downtown: more love, more pride, more people who want to be there. We don’t love Downtown Houston because it is perfect. We love it because it is ours.

Millions of Harris County voters entered into a new era of voting thanks to the Harris County Clerk's Office polling place program. Our #voteYOURway engagement and awareness campaign connected with hard-to-reach-voters to let them know that they can now vote wherever, whenever and with whomever they want.

To support the convenience of this new way of voting, we partnered with the data scientists at January Advisors to launch voter support tools that made it easy to find a nearby polling location via the Harris County Poll Finder, a textbot and Facebook Messenger chatbot. A syndicated polling place map helped media and community partners spread the word, while a 'Your Vote Counts' dashboard educated curious voters on just how their vote matters in every election.

Houston’s future is dependent on the quality of education we provide to our students today. A group of Houston's leaders came together to envision a new future for Houston's education. From that Good Reason Houston was born. To ensure that our communities rallied around their work, we built a multi-layered brand and digital strategy that could serve as a storytelling tool for them.

In 2015, we teamed up with the Office of Public Engagement to support Mrs. Obama’s Reach Higher initative. We needed to build on the great stakeholder relationships Reach Higher had built, and carve out a place for just Generation-Z. A generation that’s grown up in a post-911/post-recession world, that’s witnessed traditional choices do not always guarantee success and that’s observed the struggles of Millennials and has resolved to do things differently.

We needed to give Gen-Z a creative space, inspire them to build their own community and find ways to amplify their mindset. In hopes of igniting a movement. Better Make Room gives voice to that generation. It celebrates their achievements and acknowledges things are not easy. It elevates their hard work to new heights. It tells their stories through a lens normally reserved for celebrities and give them a space to not only speak their dreams but encourage each other.

Michelle Obama wants more first-generation college-goers to have the support they need, and that means championing everyone in students' corners—from parents to school counselors to foundations and admissions staff. The Reach Higher brand was a project near and dear to our hearts, and we worked to create a versatile, flexible design system that empowers staff and stakeholders all over the country to craft the materials they need to make an impact in students' journeys to college.

When the researchers at UTHealth School of Public Health contacted us about a citywide campaign for LARC (long-acting reversible contraception), we jumped in with full hearts. Birth control is only one of many decisions facing women. It’s a very personal decision, and not one you can easily make without help—so we created the Own Every Piece campaign.

Vibrant bursts of color symbolize all of life’s complicated pieces being tossed victoriously into the air. It’s about women taking ownership of their stories, their bodies and their choices.
Birth control is a topic laden with cultural pitfalls. Messaging had to come from women with real experience that our audience trusted while balancing approachability with medical expertise.

To connect with new and existing audiences, we created two digital campaigns that focused on the real stories of the Harbor’s children and alumni. Development of the campaigns included concept, production of assets and videos, fleshing out of content calendars, deployment of social advertising as well as email marketing to support. Following the launch of both campaigns the organization saw a 300% increase in traffic to their volunteer page, a 300% increase in donation traffic and a 100% increase in social media reach and impressions. This is one of many ways we're working with Today's Harbor to broaden their awareness.

In a field dominated by big names and a perpetual state of charity, Black Sheep needed to differentiate Boys and Girls Harbor in more ways than one. In 2017, we renamed and rebranded the organization and have remained in partnership to develop and rollout an integrated marketing and communications plan to reposition them among their peers.

The Today's Harbor brand employs a simple and geometric design. The paper boat is symbolic of childhood, optimism and possibility and the lean yet textural logo speaks to the structure the organization brings to the lives of children. The nautical theme is a nod to the harbor locale of the nonprofit. The combination of youthful, basic shapes, strong type and the romantic, adventure theme make the logo and brand appropriate for the range of ages at Today’s Harbor for Children as well as the adults who support the children and the organization.

The paper boat is symbolic of childhood, optimism and possibility and the lean yet textural logo speaks to the structure the organization brings to the lives of children. The nautical theme is a nod to the harbor locale of the nonprofit. The combination of youthful, basic shapes, strong type and the romantic, adventure theme make the logo and brand appropriate for the range of ages at Today’s Harbor for Children as well as the adults who support the children and the organization.

To connect with new and existing audiences, we created two digital campaigns that focused on the real stories of the Harbor’s children and alumni. Development of the campaigns included concept, production of assets and videos, fleshing out of content calendars, deployment of social advertising as well as email marketing to support. Following the launch of both campaigns the organization saw a 300% increase in traffic to their volunteer page, a 300% increase in donation traffic and a 100% increase in social media reach and impressions. This is one of many ways we're working with Today's Harbor to broaden their awareness.

People have always protested and marched—for rights, for equality, for things they believe in. One protest sign that has been present for all this strife is the one that reads “I am human.” When we want to remove barriers, we talk about our humanity, our common ground. This campaign for nonprofit BakerRipley is called HUMAN.

In the sixties, activists proclaimed “I am a man.” When love won, activists said, “I feel more human today than I have in a long time.” This was the seed of the idea for HUMAN. When people in many decades keep adopting the same central theme, that’s because the theme has power. Talking about our humanity, our common ground, has power.

That’s because “HUMAN” is a simple statement, but it’s really more than that: It is a universal truth, immediately recognizable, that connects strangers in an instant. It draws the simplest possible line between two people. “You” and “them” becomes “us.”

The HPV vaccine helps prevent cancer, but talking about it is hard. Despite the best efforts from experts in public health, it still lags behind other vaccines in coverage rates. That's why we developed All for Them for a team of incredible women at UTHealth who provide mobile vaccination clinics at HISD middle schools.

Parents do so much for their kids, making sure they have all they need to thrive. The All For Them campaign plays up the idea of complete and holistic health while acknowledging parents' efforts to provide their children with all, not just some, of the things they need on a day-to-day basis.

Our challenge was to change the conversation from one that addresses the challenges associated with HPV too quickly or disregards them entirely, to one that empathizes with parents and empowers them to make the best choices for their families.

Café Momentum was poised for national expansion and wide-scale narrative change, but the brand and value proposition needed to reflect the future of where they were headed.
Two competing identities—Momentum Advisory Collective and the Café Momentum restaurants—were creating confusion and diluting impact. We needed a unified brand architecture that could scale with clarity and purpose.

We kicked off with an intensive Project Design Sprint at Cafe Momentum’s Dallas HQ—diving deep into their model, mission and momentum. Together, we unpacked the big questions: Which funders most align with the work? Which audiences will help it grow? What partnerships will move the needle? What’s getting in the way of our vision?
Our immersive Project Design Sprint process helped us surface what made the model so powerful—and what it would take to scale it with integrity. The result: a bold Project Plan filled with strategies, assets and catalytic ideas to power national expansion.

Core values matter most when they move beyond posters and into practice. We helped Cafe Momentum refresh their values to reflect the heart of their model—connecting their impact with the rhythms of the restaurant industry.

Café Momentum was poised for national expansion and wide-scale narrative change, but the brand and value proposition needed to reflect the future of where they were headed.
Two competing identities—Momentum Advisory Collective and the Café Momentum restaurants—were creating confusion and diluting impact. We needed a unified brand architecture that could scale with clarity and purpose.

We kicked off with an intensive Project Design Sprint at Cafe Momentum’s Dallas HQ—diving deep into their model, mission and momentum.

Our immersive Project Design Sprint process helped us surface what made the model so powerful—and what it would take to scale it with integrity. The result: a bold Project Plan filled with strategies, assets and catalytic ideas to power national expansion.

Just like life, cooking is messy and imperfect. We built a visual brand system inspired by the intensity of the kitchen and the tenderness of transformation. Custom illustrations, layered textures and typography as intentional as every dish.

It’s the spring of 2025 and AI has exploded onto the scene, influencing global businesses at every level. The people at Playlab, however, saw a different opportunity for impact: they created a platform to change education by enabling teachers and students to build for their own needs using the power of AI.

Playlab wasn’t telling their most powerful stories. The opportunity to make a transformative impact on education is obvious when you talk to its founders, but far less evident when interacting with their existing website. When Playlab learned it had the opportunity to pitch some of the world’s largest funders, they recognized the need to better communicate the change-making nature of their work, and quickly.

In under 30 days, Black Sheep and Playlab partnered to overhaul the visual brand, redesign key website pages and reimagine how their tech and community impact are communicated. To get there, we immersed ourselves in the platform—interviewing users, exploring tools and developing case studies and video testimonials that spotlight real educators and the transformative power of Playlab’s AI in the classroom.

Black Sheep based our website design on the same concept as Playlab’s platform: the joy and excitement of digital creation. An all-new bank of custom illustration and iconography lent playfulness to the experience, while chunky headlines and subtle animations like flashing cursors and overlapping shapes highlighted the fun inherent in the product.

The United Domestic Workers of America (UDW) is a 45-year-old union that supports the 170,000+ workers who provide high-quality home and child care to children, seniors and people with disabilities, allowing Californians to live with dignity and independence. UDW is also a social justice union fighting to create a world where equality and dignity are possible.
The critical care work that UDW members perform has historically been under-valued by society despite the skill and dedication it requires. Black Sheep partnered with UDW to break misperceptions, amplify the value of members' work and enhance awareness of their vital role in community-based social justice initiatives.
We developed an updated UDW logo, color palette and photography style to empower their storytelling. We also produced a video series that explores the lives of UDW members for a digital ad campaign, showing Californians the value of care work.
Every campaign needs a home base. We designed a campaign landing page to inform and inspire the public about UDW’s mission and community advocacy. The powerful photography and member testimonials included were designed to resonate with visitors and encourage them to take action.
We ran a multi-channel digital ad campaign to boost the captured video narratives of UDW members and expand awareness of the union's mission. The campaign successfully leveraged Meta, Youtube and StackAdapt for video and display ads. By utilizing a data-driven approach, we were able to optimize our messaging for maximum impact, generating millions of impressions and video views.

We helped Fund For Teachers implement their brand with a new website, social media content, email marketing and events. To this day, they’re still supporting teachers through the incredible community they built together.
Fund for Teachers came to us seeking an updated brand that would foster long-term relationships as it grew. We developed and implemented not just a refreshed brand but also a related identity that united its community of supporters and educators.
Fund for Teachers occupies a unique space, providing professional development and funding self-directed Fellowships for teachers to grow. They needed a brand that showed they go beyond sporadic grant applications—they are community builders.
Inspired by the Ramsden Sextant, a navigation tool for sailors exploring uncharted waters, the new brand expresses how teachers help students navigate the world by pushing the boundaries of their own knowledge.
We wanted Fund For Teachers to feel like a true alliance of like-minded peers. The Ramsden Project was created so Fellows can connect, support and learn from each other.

Stages is a Houston arts institution dedicated to telling inclusive human stories that invite everyone to live more deeply and love more boldly. They needed a fresh yet timeless rebrand to match their impressive new theater, The Gordy.
We created a bold identity that blends light and dark to reflect theater's transformative power: a pull-string sign that glows neon purple against a black background, symbolizing the shift from light to dark in the theater.

Houston’s parks are a point of pride for our whole city. That’s why we helped the Houston Parks Board mobilize Harris County voters around a bond proposition that would fund bigger and better greenspace for all.

To catch attention, this campaign had to come straight from the heart. Where many digital ads cut straight to the point, we started with subtler messages about loving parks and re-targeted specific audiences, building up to that “Vote YES!” message over time.

We’re grateful for the chance to support the Project HOMES team and their groundbreaking work—because people shouldn’t have to choose between their basic needs and their recovery.
We’re grateful for the chance to support the Project HOMES team and their groundbreaking work—because people shouldn’t have to choose between their basic needs and their recovery.
Project HOMES is a first-of-its-kind study—and the nation’s largest—seeking to understand how housing and medication can support recovery from opioid use. We built them a warm, welcoming brand identity that matched their passion and deep care for people in recovery.

We spoke with recovery housing managers, who told us firsthand that people taking medication for their recovery face stigma within that community as well as beyond it. Due to that, they are often excluded from the“typical” recovery process. Together, we agreed: if addiction looks different for everyone, recovery should too.

Community makes recovery less isolating. That’s what inspired the Project HOMES brand, especially the logo’s theme of conversation and safe shelter. The warm colors and rounded edges create a welcoming, cozy environment.

We developed a messaging strategy and internal guide to support housing managers and ensure every touchpoint felt connected. The language is both compassionate and evidence-based, with a down-to-earth tone that’s still firm.

Plant it Forward will forever inhabit a special place in Houston. We’re excited to see them grow their CSA and allow many more people to taste their amazing harvests that support their remarkable local farmers. In the meantime, we’ll be rooting for them over a big salad bowl of their delicious arugula.

Plant It Forward brings a vibrant, global mix of produce to tables across the Houston area—straight from sustainable urban farms run by former refugees. Their farm share program needed a boost in awareness and fresh visuals to provide fertile ground for growth and scale.

We needed to help Plant It Forward reach and keep new CSA member audiences. Sometimes folks joined and stumbled, wondering what to do with that veggie they’d never heard of in their farm box. Our challenge was to build a marketing strategy and collateral that helped gain new farm share supporters and retain existing memberships.

While Plant it Forward offers more pickup spots than any other farm share in the city in some of Houston’s favorite bars, restaurants and bodegas, our secret shopping uncovered that the pick-up experience wasn't as easy and consistent as it could be. We created eye-catching signage to draw attention and help CSA members find their veggie shares. Produce guides, postcards and swag pieces were also developed to help members learn how to use their pickups and feel connected to their local suppliers.

The second: reach historically underserved communities in ways that reflect and represent the diversity of Houston, providing the information needed to drive change.

Houston Landing is a new nonprofit news outlet for Houston voices and stories. Seeing the need for more accurate local reporting and to fill the gaps larger groups overlook, the Houston Landing team needed an identity that would establish them as Houston's go-to local news outlet while staying true to their thoughtful, nonpartisan and reliable values.

We began with a discovery and research process to understand the local news landscape and larger cultural trends for both news media and Houston. We knew their brand identity had to be authentically Houston while carefully differentiated from other outlets—walking a tightrope between signaling something new and matching the energy of the city. After running moodboard and visual exercises with the client, we began our creative process in our notebooks.

Based on conversations with the client, we focused our attention on a variety of wordmarks and H-based icons. The 'H' in Houston is important. We leaned into our H-Town pride and developed logo options that would stand apart from competitors yet would be immediately welcomed by the community.

It was important that the Houston Landing website reflected the mission and vision of the organization and would be accessible to all. We worked with Digital Citizen to design an intelligent and thoughtful landing page that brings the brand to life on desktop and mobile platforms. With the launch of the website, Houston Landing was ready to publish their first articles and begin connecting with their new readers.

In the midst of a global pandemic, Good Reason Houston made free pre-K feel like a path to success for families under immense pressure. With a vibrant, collaborative, evolving campaign — accessible to parents, exciting for kids — we saw enrollment numbers increase across nine districts.
In the midst of a global pandemic, Good Reason Houston made free pre-K feel like a path to success for families under immense pressure. With a vibrant, collaborative, evolving campaign — accessible to parents, exciting for kids — we saw enrollment numbers increase across nine districts.
Good Reason Houston had an ambitious goal: to get back to pre-COVID enrollment numbers in just three years. Parents were dealing with a million issues at once. Districts were facing uncertainty. Despite the chaos, we stayed curious and learned something big: that free pre-K programs across the region are high-quality, family-centered and can prepare kids for a better education through the rest of their life.

We did more than refresh the campaign. We made it fun. We kept it inclusive, accessible and as joyful as childhood itself. We put families’ changing needs first, evolving our campaign over time based on current events and changing priorities. We made creative toolkits for districts and shared our learnings with other local organizations.

At the core of this campaign is a trusted partnership. Good Reason Houston was shown to be a leader and connector between districts, communities and organizations like Families Empowered. One year into the work, we’ve laid a stable foundation for more experimentation and collaboration—so more children, from any background, can Go Somewhere!

Despite the chaos, we stayed curious and learned something big: that free pre-K programs across the region are high-quality, family-centered and can prepare kids for a better education through the rest of their life.

We did more than refresh the campaign. We made it fun. We kept it inclusive, accessible and as joyful as childhood itself. We put families’ changing needs first, evolving our campaign over time based on current events and changing priorities. We made creative toolkits for districts and shared our learnings with other local organizations.

At the core of this campaign is a trusted partnership. Good Reason Houston was shown to be a leader and connector between districts, communities and organizations like Families Empowered. One year into the work, we’ve laid a stable foundation for more experimentation and collaboration—so more children, from any background, can Go Somewhere!

Here at Black Sheep, we all already know what makes Downtown Houston so great. So how do you create an engagement campaign that helps people embrace their love for their hometown? We needed to shift our thinking from Downtown as a place, to Downtown as an entity with BIG personality. All the imperfection, the wildness, the uniqueness and the weirdness. The Meet Downtown campaign builds a personality that reflects these qualities, and asks Houstonians to embrace their affinity for Downtown: more love, more pride, more people who want to be there. We don’t love Downtown Houston because it is perfect. We love it because it is ours.

Millions of Harris County voters entered into a new era of voting thanks to the Harris County Clerk's Office polling place program.

Houston’s future is dependent on the quality of education we provide to our students today. A group of Houston's leaders came together to envision a new future for Houston's education. From that Good Reason Houston was born. To ensure that our communities rallied around their work, we built a multi-layered brand and digital strategy that could serve as a storytelling tool for them.

In 2015, we teamed up with the Office of Public Engagement to support Mrs. Obama’s Reach Higher initative. We needed to build on the great stakeholder relationships Reach Higher had built, and carve out a place for just Generation-Z. A generation that’s grown up in a post-911/post-recession world, that’s witnessed traditional choices do not always guarantee success and that’s observed the struggles of Millennials and has resolved to do things differently.

We needed to give Gen-Z a creative space, inspire them to build their own community and find ways to amplify their mindset. In hopes of igniting a movement. Better Make Room gives voice to that generation. It celebrates their achievements and acknowledges things are not easy. It elevates their hard work to new heights. It tells their stories through a lens normally reserved for celebrities and give them a space to not only speak their dreams but encourage each other.

Michelle Obama wants more first-generation college-goers to have the support they need, and that means championing everyone in students' corners—from parents to school counselors to foundations and admissions staff. The Reach Higher brand was a project near and dear to our hearts, and we worked to create a versatile, flexible design system that empowers staff and stakeholders all over the country to craft the materials they need to make an impact in students' journeys to college.

When the researchers at UTHealth School of Public Health contacted us about a citywide campaign for LARC (long-acting reversible contraception), we jumped in with full hearts. Birth control is only one of many decisions facing women. It’s a very personal decision, and not one you can easily make without help—so we created the Own Every Piece campaign.

Vibrant bursts of color symbolize all of life’s complicated pieces being tossed victoriously into the air. It’s about women taking ownership of their stories, their bodies and their choices.
Birth control is a topic laden with cultural pitfalls. Messaging had to come from women with real experience that our audience trusted while balancing approachability with medical expertise.

To connect with new and existing audiences, we created two digital campaigns that focused on the real stories of the Harbor’s children and alumni. Development of the campaigns included concept, production of assets and videos, fleshing out of content calendars, deployment of social advertising as well as email marketing to support. Following the launch of both campaigns the organization saw a 300% increase in traffic to their volunteer page, a 300% increase in donation traffic and a 100% increase in social media reach and impressions. This is one of many ways we're working with Today's Harbor to broaden their awareness.

In a field dominated by big names and a perpetual state of charity, Black Sheep needed to differentiate Boys and Girls Harbor in more ways than one. In 2017, we renamed and rebranded the organization and have remained in partnership to develop and rollout an integrated marketing and communications plan to reposition them among their peers.

The Today's Harbor brand employs a simple and geometric design. The paper boat is symbolic of childhood, optimism and possibility and the lean yet textural logo speaks to the structure the organization brings to the lives of children. The nautical theme is a nod to the harbor locale of the nonprofit. The combination of youthful, basic shapes, strong type and the romantic, adventure theme make the logo and brand appropriate for the range of ages at Today’s Harbor for Children as well as the adults who support the children and the organization.

Three million students and teachers across the globe use Common App each year to help plan and apply for their higher education experience. To support their rebrand, we helped create video storytelling pieces to showcase their new look and build a strong emotional connection with their audiences.

People have always protested and marched—for rights, for equality, for things they believe in. One protest sign that has been present for all this strife is the one that reads “I am human.” When we want to remove barriers, we talk about our humanity, our common ground. This campaign for nonprofit BakerRipley is called HUMAN.

In the sixties, activists proclaimed “I am a man.” When love won, activists said, “I feel more human today than I have in a long time.” This was the seed of the idea for HUMAN. When people in many decades keep adopting the same central theme, that’s because the theme has power. Talking about our humanity, our common ground, has power.

That’s because “HUMAN” is a simple statement, but it’s really more than that: It is a universal truth, immediately recognizable, that connects strangers in an instant. It draws the simplest possible line between two people. “You” and “them” becomes “us.”

In the sixties, activists proclaimed “I am a man.” When love won, activists said, “I feel more human today than I have in a long time.” This was the seed of the idea for HUMAN. When people in many decades keep adopting the same central theme, that’s because the theme has power. Talking about our humanity, our common ground, has power.

That’s because “HUMAN” is a simple statement, but it’s really more than that: It is a universal truth, immediately recognizable, that connects strangers in an instant. It draws the simplest possible line between two people. “You” and “them” becomes “us.”

The HPV vaccine helps prevent cancer, but talking about it is hard. Despite the best efforts from experts in public health, it still lags behind other vaccines in coverage rates. That's why we developed All for Them for a team of incredible women at UTHealth who provide mobile vaccination clinics at HISD middle schools.

Parents do so much for their kids, making sure they have all they need to thrive. The All For Them campaign plays up the idea of complete and holistic health while acknowledging parents' efforts to provide their children with all, not just some, of the things they need on a day-to-day basis.

At Fay, students aren’t just sharp, they’re emotionally intelligent and they know what it means to be a leader at an early age. At Fay, students are ready to take on the day and whatever comes their way. They share, they tell their stories, they speak their mind and they lead younger students through the journey to become the students they’re meant to be. And if there’s one thing the world needs more of, it’s smart, passionate, articulate young people ready to lead. A place so special deserved a campaign as equally special. We wanted to show the Houston community What Leaders Look Like.
