"Rana Creek Living Architecture evaluates, designs, installs and monitors plant life and watershed ecosystems within architectural structures and site integration. Experiencing significant growth in the field of 'green roof' and ecological landscapes, Rana Creek hired Takigawa Design to update their identity. Sharing a dedication to sustainable design, Takigawa was able to conceive and create an overarching brand for Rana Creek through the Living Architecture brochure. Paul Kephart, Rana Creek's lead ecologist and consultant, provided vision and messaging for the brochure, taking into account an audience of architects, planners, engineers, developers and city officials. Distribution would be primarily through mail and trade shows," said consultant Sarah Clark. Jerry Takigawa continued, "The landscape format of the brochure was chosen for a soft, relaxed feel–consistent with the concept of natural environments. French fold pages added dimension while the side-sewn binding contributed textural interest. The inside cover water graphic indicates Living Architecture's contribution to a healthy watershed and the image of native grasses reflects its promotion of ecological diversity and wildlife habitat. The brochure is printed on an uncoated 100% post-consumer waste recycled stock, certified by the Forest Stewardship Council. Hemlock Printers is also FSC certified and dedicated to sustainable practices.
