It’s been a hell of a year already, hasn’t it? 2020 has changed everything and we’re exhausted, yet the pandemic still rages and we’re all just trying to hang on. In these times of stress and uncertainty it’s important not to lose hope. It’s hard to believe there will be better times when it’s not […]
Time to bury your toes. It’s spring break and ST8MNT wants everyone to know that heat and sand are back! We recently got the opportunity to create new business cards for one of our long-standing clients, Blaster Entertainment. While the company has a very simple logo, just black and white normally, we knew that we […]

This year we added four new people to the ST8MNT family and launched a killer responsive website — so it was definitely time for a new stationary look. Our business cards got a facelift with geometric patterning, clear foil stamping, and custom-designed eights! Check out the fun we had with this identity design from start […]

ST8MNT has a longstanding relationship with National Geographic Channel, and we relish the opportunity to collaborate with their in-house team to design fresh creative for such captivating subject matter. Most recently, we did the branding and graphic design for two new premiers: “SEAL Team 6” and “Doomsday Preppers.” SEAL Team 6 Nat Geo asked ST8MNT’s […]
As our design agency grows, we look for new ways to build efficiencies. Most recently, we realized we needed a way to track print jobs and the specs that went with them. At the time, we didn’t have a way to index production jobs by client or vendor, and this was a functionality that appealed […]
Inspired becomes inspiring. This cycle is a true example of perpetual motion and the greatest thing about the process of innovation. This is especially the case when a child innovates without the slightest inkling of bringing themselves, or anyone else, anything other than the simple happiness of playing a game. Caine did not intend to […]
Proposed interrobangs from Type Talks, March-April 1962, drawn by Jack Lipton of Martin K. Speckter Associates, Inc. (Image courtesy of Penny Speckter by way of Shady Characters.)
