<p class="head1">ABOUT US</p>
<p class="head2">What is Emerald City</p>
<p>Welcome to Emerald City Communications </p>
<p>Emerald City is a graphic design company with a twist. We specialize
in arts, advocacy, environmental, and public-sector clients, as well
as design for creative businesses large and small.</p>
<p>Our projects range from dance company flyers to civic annual reports;
from sexy bike month campaigns to political billboards. It's
an eccentric mix, but Emerald City's clients have one thing
in common: they are passionate about the work they do. We collaborate
with them to express their ideas in images and words, and to
communicate that passion to a wider world.</p>
<p>We approach every project with humour, curiosity,and care.</p>
<p class="head2">Not Yaletown</p>
<p>Our sunny studio overlooks Pigeon Park in the historic Carrall
Building, at the corner of Carrall Street and East Pender in
Vancouver.</p>
<p>Until the 1940's the massive brick edifice served as
headquarters to the BC Electric Company, and was the hub of the
city's electric trolleycar system. The trolleys entered and
exited right through the building's great gothic arches. The
Carrall Building has since been re-wired as a high-tech communications
hub, but it remains an unofficial transit museum, its hallways lined
with transit memorabilia and the graceful vaulted foyer hung with
fascinating historic photos.</p>
<p>Note: our street address is Suite 205 - 425 Carrall, but the entrance
is off East Pender Street. Sometimes visitors get
confused.</p>
<p class="head2">What we do</p>
<p>Emerald City provides identity development, graphic design and
production, art direction, illustration, copy writing, editing, and
marketing consultation.</p>
<p>Our projects have comprised complete identity packages and
multi-component campaigns, as well as portable display units, bus ads,
posters, umbrellas, temporary tattoos and coffee mugs. Emerald City
has also edited and produced several ongoing periodicals and
newsletters. We're always keen to wrap our heads around a new
challenge.</p>
<p>We thrill in collaborating with a variety of videographers,
illustrators, photographers, web designers, and talented eccentrics of
all stripes.</p>
