AUXILIARY MANUFACTURING

Auxiliary Manufacturing is a custom cutlery shop based in Reno, Nevada. They specialize in hard use cutlery for culinary, every day carry, tactical, and the outdoors.

They reached out to me to get a branding refresh as well as have some signage, merch graphics and social media posts made.

SERVICES RENDERED

• Branding

• Illustration

• Signage

• Social Media Posts

• Manufacturing Layout Design

Branding

First we started by designing a logo mark that incorporated a knife model from their current lineup with The outdoors. Next we designed an updated badge logo that was similar in shape and organization to their prior logo. Both can be used on social media, merch, and signage.

Merch Graphics

The customer wanted a design for a shirt that he could wear as a uniform in the shop so that photos inside the shop would always have a piece of their branding incorporated. He wanted to use the small logo on the front of the shirt with a new graphic for the back.

Customer Deliverables

The client goes to a lot of trade shows where they have a booth set up and he wanted some tri-fold catalogs made with their whole knife line up to hand out to potential customers.

Signage

While at trade shows, people were frequently cutting themselves on accident at his booth. He was interested in having a sign made that could be displayed on the table as a funny warning to onlookers.

Social Media Ads

To help drum up more business for custom knives, the client requested to have a graphic made for instagram that he could run as an ad.
