While working on the rebrand for DoverPhila Federal Credit Union it became apparent that the organization needed a spokesperson — or spokesowl — who could be the expert on all things financial, offer advice on how to handle credit and provide insight on finding the lowest interest rates.
DP the barn owl appears in print and billboard advertising, web banners, and even has his own Q&A section in their upcoming website relaunch.
DoverPhila Federal Credit Union has been serving the Dover/New Philadelphia community since 1953. They operate five offices in Dover, New Philadelphia, Newcomerstown, and Uhrichsville with nearly 100 employees, all of whom are proud and eager to serve the financial needs of anyone who lives, works, attends church or school in Tuscarawas County.
What started as a request for a simpler app icon, turned into a full rebrand for the organization which extended into website, signage, outdoor, print and radio advertising, and mascot development. The new brand is friendly and engages with their community as more than just a place to do their banking. They exist for the financial benefit of their members and to provide a level of service that meets their members’ financial needs.

You've heard it said "The cobbler's children have no shoes." Indeed, these designers needed new business cards, and with the addition of Casey Carmell to the team, we figured there was no time like the present. With the help of Harper Engraving, we were able to come up with a truly unique calling card.
We cut no corners when it came to printing techniques and cut all corners regarding the form factor. We utilized foil stamping, thermography, laminated 100# cover stocks (with some linen finish thrown in) and then die cut them into 2.25" circles. Clients love receiving them as much as we love handing them out.
Check out the process video to see how it came together:
Slagle Design is excited to be able to share this re-brand! It's not often that we get to reboot a brand that was designed by us several years ago.
Seagull Bags has already left its mark on the messenger bag industry by creating hand-crafted, one of a kind water-resistant, no-compromise bags and backpacks that have lead to a sterling reputation and a strong following.
After taking a three month sabbatical and reaching out to industry experts, Seagull has a new plan. They are offering a better-designed, scaled-back product line; more consistent build quality with high tech stitching and manufacturing techniques.
The new Seagull brand does not ignore its roots, but plans to shed its “for cyclists only” focus in favor of a more inclusive, tactical, outdoors-driven direction. Their bags are for cyclist, hikers, campers, climbers, students and commuters. The new brand demonstrates their commitment to ongoing quality and a strong sense of adventure.
The new logo is designed to be unique, simple and suited for use in very small applications.

Hey, check it out! I was interviewed by the Dispatch!
Come out to Pinchflat this May. More details here.
After exploring several options for our work space and weighing the advantages and disadvantages of each, we decided that the right move for Slagle Design was to add onto our home. In October 2013 we broke ground on our new studio space and in four short months, Slagle Design moved into a dedicated workspace, allowing 9 to 5 client access and the perfect environment for work, collaboration and creativity. Many thanks go out to the amazing designers and builders at Finishline Building for making our dream become a reality.
We are excited to be included in the new LogoLounge 9 book to be released in early 2016.
With more than 22,000 logos entered for consideration, this is a huge honor.
This year’s panel included Kendrick Kidd of Shepherd Agency, Ian Paget of Logo Geek, Matt McCracken of Doublenaut, Sebastian Padilla of Anagrama, Tracy Sabin of Sabingrafik, Christopher Simmons of MINE, Matt Stevens of Design Office of Matt Stevens, and Alina Wheeler of Designing Brand Identity.
Slagle Design, Alex Trimpe and the folks at Spacejunk Media took home a top honor for the Sliveus PriceFlex Animation. It's great to be recognized!
