Client Work | Refresh Miami

Where Miami Tech Happens.

Miami’s oldest and largest tech and startup community in Miami with over 15,500 members and founders had outgrown its original branding and messaging since its inception in 2009. Refresh Miami was in need of a brand refresh (pun intended) that resonated with its expanded offerings of daily delivery of Miami’s tech news , exclusive events with top speakers in tech, and hosting of a job board and tech talent network.

The Soultion:

I first started by creating a new logo design using bold and vibrant colors to capture a tech-inspired aesthetic. I then evolved their messaging to position Refresh Miami as the place “where Miami tech happens” instead of just a participant or reporter of the scene.

I also created a framing device using a refresh icon to visualize how refresh Miami is constantly updating (or refreshing) it’s news posts, job board and events.
