Freelance Motion Signage Series

January 2026- | Several Dispensaries Across Detroit


This work has been created as an additional opportunity from my former manager at Simply Loud. He offered me the chance to design for several of his new dispensaries as they were being closed and reopened under his new management. It was then my job to create a visual language and series of motion graphics that relate to the previous visual language ,but also elevate it and reimagine it as a new and unique place to shop.

Deliverables:  


In-Store Motion Signage



Luv Cannabis Co. | 19705 W Seven Mile Rd, Detroit, MI 48219 | Previous Graphics & Interiors



About the Brands & Backgrounds: Luv Cannabis Co


As was the case for the majority of my design projects, I was given a logo and no other visual elements. But, I decided to give both of these logos a refresh, since the given assets were grainy and non-transparent, so kinda difficult to make a nice graphic out of them. Luv already had a strong visual language onto which I could base my signage, and a nice color scheme that I knew my manager liked. The House of Mary Jane already had two logos to work with, and they were high-quality enough that I didn’t feel the need to update them.

Refreshing Stoney Leaf’s Brand Identity


As for Stoney Leaf, they were looking for more of an overall brand refresh, so I decided to use the building’s unique green brick painting and architecture as a foundation for my logo and design of the motion signage.

I’m thankful for my management and marketing team for the opportunity to design for yet another new Detroit dispensary. I feel a unique sense of purpose and fullfillment knowing that my work is going to be seen by people in the community that have accepted me into it ever since I came here a few years ago. Stay tuned for more designs for this place coming very soon! -L
