Laser Image
A locally-owned print shop founded in 1987 in Durham, NC, Laser Image is where small business values meet solution-driven technology to tell the stories of their customers. As a creative partner of MRC for years, we couldn't have been more excited when they came to us asking for help rejuvenating their brand.
Through our discovery process, it became clear that there was a disconnect between the image they put out into the world and their passionate, creative and caring team. Their old identity was limiting, uninspiring and no longer reflected who they'd become since it was designed 30+ years ago.
Our goal was to create a brand that was as casual and friendly as the personalities of the Laser Image team while also exuding trust, precision and craftsmanship. To combine these ideas, we leaned into the heritage brands of yesteryear, creating a custom, hand-lettered script type that emphasizes the craft, care and precision of Laser Image.
For the LI monogram, we were inspired by the carefully crafted logomarks of years past, marks that reinforce feelings of quality, experience, care and trust. The simplicity of the nestled letterforms create a confident, timeless mark and the curve of the L brings a touch of playfulness.
