Objective:
Celebrate 100 years of business with a special gift that reflects the familiar elements of the Gate City Bank brand.

Idea:
Create a holiday-themed item for the end of the year that incorporates the iconic blue holiday lights from Gate City Bank.

 It all began with a conversation. Was it even possible to create something so customized from scratch while staying within budget? Working within such custom parameters and desires can often feel limiting, but we were determined to find a solution. We started with a few 2D design options and presented them to several manufacturing facilities. After some back-and-forth discussions, we confirmed that it could indeed be made on time and within budget. Once approved, we produced the darker-colored sample (see below.) After the client requested some color adjustments, statement pieces changed and a few details fine-tuned, we ended with the lighter color shown.

Result:
The 100-year anniversary cookie jar will be a cherished holiday display for lucky customers, clients and community members for years to come! And of course it holds the famous Gate City Bank Cookies too!
