Mercedes Austin, founder of Mercury Mosaics, had built her business on creativity and craftsmanship, turning her handmade tile designs into a thriving enterprise. When she envisioned a storefront that mirrored the artistry and uniqueness of her work, she turned to Brand Ink to make her dream a reality. The result was a striking storefront design that captured Mercury Mosaics’ handcrafted essence while drawing in customers and passersby, creating a cohesive brand experience from the outside in.
The collaboration began when Mercedes, inspired by Brand Ink’s reputation for bold, brand-aligned visuals, approached the team with a clear vision: to design storefront graphics that reflected the intricate, artisanal quality of her handmade tiles. With her passion for artistry and entrepreneurship, Mercedes found a kindred spirit in Brand Ink’s CEO, Nick. Their shared dedication to building something unique set the foundation for an extraordinary partnership.
Brand Ink worked closely with Mercedes to design graphics that evoked the texture and creativity of her tiles. Using photo-realistic mockups, the team ensured the final product would perfectly align with her vision. Mercedes wanted a storefront that not only embodied the essence of her brand but also stood out as a beacon of creativity in the community. The hands-on, iterative process allowed Mercedes to remain involved at every step, ensuring the final design perfectly captured her vision and brand identity. The result exceeded expectations, leaving Mercury Mosaics with a storefront as distinctive as the tiles inside.
The completed storefront not only elevated Mercury Mosaics’ aesthetic appeal but also created a stronger connection with its community. The design’s handcrafted look turned heads and drew in new customers, while the process itself reinforced the value of collaboration and expertise.
For Brand Ink, the opportunity to collaborate with a fellow creative and entrepreneur made the project uniquely rewarding. The final result was more than just a storefront—it was a true extension of the artistry and craftsmanship that define Mercury Mosaics, turning the exterior into a celebration of the brand’s essence and its dedication to beauty and creativity.
Brand Ink’s design expertise and commitment to detail helped transform Mercury Mosaics’ storefront into a reflection of its artistic identity.
