Louisville Advertising Agency, Blue Bus Cafe, creates artistic banners to display the building's new owners as well as encourage creative revitalization in the city's neighborhoods.
February 28, 2007 (Press Release) --
Louisville KY -- February 27, 2007 -- The inhabitants of Germantown, Smoketown, and Old Louisville have something new to look up to. A few miles south of the city skyline, in an industrial neighborhood dotted with shotgun houses, sits another tall contrast claiming a presence of service and creativity to its new neighbors. And proof of those intentions is announced with illustrative distinctness.
At 930 Mary St., animating the conventional schoolhouse brick that used to house the students of Isaac Shelby Elementary, are two 15’ x 22’ banners- an aesthetic advertisement of the building’s newest residents. “The 930” is now home to a church, community center, music venue, art gallery, art studios, and business offices. One such office holds the creative team responsible for the design of the banners.
Blue Bus Café, Ltd. Co. opened its doors in 2002 as an advertising, design, and photography studio. The agency grew from a home office to a location in Middletown before settling down in The 930 building.
This new central location provides easier access to downtown clients as well as giving the company an opportunity to contribute to the people and community around them. Sojourn Community Church, a client and owner of the building, approached Blue Bus Café to create some banners advertising their new worship space that also reflected the church’s desire to have a visual and positive impact on the city.
Upon receiving artwork from local artists and residents of the Germantown neighborhood, Blue Bus Café designed the two banners that are placed on both the east and west sides of the building.
Founder and owner, Bowin Tichenor, says, “We love Louisville and are always looking for creative ways to make it a better place to live and work. These banners reflect a vision of renewal for this community and hopefully will inspire further creativity and unity in these humble neighborhoods.”
Consistent with this ethic, the designers at Blue Bus Café are donating 10% of their time to help non-profits find a visual identity. Along with their steady client list of local businesses and organizations, current projects include web and print work for Jefferson Street Baptist Center, a men’s homeless shelter.
