In 1921, a time when household appliances were just beginning to emerge, Harry Miller opened up a small shop in Chicago where he distributed appliances. He had a great relationship with Speed Queen as they were starting their operations and grew a name for himself specifically for that laundry equipment.
Fast forward to today and they're now looking back at 100 years of company history. Harry Miller appliances is still selling quality appliances at affordable prices and Coin-O-Matic, their commercial laundry division, is supplying and servicing equipment and providing relationships with customers across four states. Recently, one of their suppliers created a shift in the market and the Harry Miller family of companies wanted to ensure their namesake wouldn’t get lost in the shuffle.
Following conversations with business stakeholders, interviews with clients, and completing a competitive analysis, we came to the conclusion that establishing a stronger brand position and updating the visual identity for the Harry Miller family of brands was the best route forward to meet business objectives. With a keen eye on the past, we worked with the Harry Miller leadership team to paint a vision for the future.
A brand promise was solidified and boiled down to one simple statement. "Current laundry solutions from a company with historic values." Everything that would represent the company moving forward needed to fit this mold. It would need to have a historic essence and feel current as well.
A full visual identity solution was developed for the Harry Miller family of brands. This included Harry Miller appliances as well as Coin-O-Matic that now share a singular visual identity to better resonate across residential and commercial offerings. We leveraged historic brand colors, retro typography with modern styled layouts, and a proper mix of historic and modern photos to make everyone feel like their part of the legacy. Since a brand is much deeper than the visual identity, we're continuing to work with the company's leadership team on future brand-lead marketing and promotional efforts.
The team at Quill has done an amazing job taking our vision and turning it into a consistent and distinctive brand. The identity captures the essence of Sturgeon Spirits and brings it to life for all to enjoy.

We needed an identity to match our level of expertise & professionalism and Quill was the perfect team for the job. Most pool liner companies have the same old-school approach when it comes to branding & design, but Quill was able to breathe some fresh air on to this outdated, industry-standard style. From the clean, calming color palette, a creative new logo and unique website design, to our awesome new work vans, Quill gave us the exquisite “glow-up” we have been dreaming of for a long time.

The Quill team was excellent to work with on our branding project. We were starting from scratch with no existing identity, but also had multiple stakeholders with vested interest which could have complicated the process. Ryan and the team were able to listen to our needs, research the limited examples in the market, and create something that reflected our asset. I greatly appreciated their ability to work with our project manager to keep things moving, but also the ability to present to the greater committee for feedback and approvals.

The team at Quill Creative was invested in my visual identity design from the moment I contacted them. Taking time to understand ISW and my vision was their first concern. The remainder of the process was timely, fluid and incorporated my feedback, and each team member I met was engaged with the product/concept they were delivering to me. I'm thrilled with the final results of ISW's updated Visual Identity brand.

Over the last year I've had the pleasure of working with Quill Creative Services to refresh the brand of my family's business which is celebrating its 100th anniversary in 2021. On a scale of 100 for expectations I’d humbly give Quill a score of 200… The discovery, creative and implementation stages could not have gone smoother from my perspective as your typical/busy business owner. Quill invested the time to truly understand my company's history, personality, character, products, services and most importantly our customer base. The end product has taken our brand to a level that I frankly believe to be genius.

A brand promise was solidified and boiled down to one simple statement. "Current laundry solutions from a company with historic values." Everything that would represent the company moving forward needed to fit this mold. It would need to have a historic essence and feel current as well.
A full visual identity solution was developed for the Harry Miller family of brands. This included Harry Miller appliances as well as Coin-O-Matic that now share a singular visual identity to better resonate across residential and commercial offerings. We leveraged historic brand colors, retro typography with modern styled layouts, and a proper mix of historic and modern photos to make everyone feel like their part of the legacy. Since a brand is much deeper than the visual identity, we're continuing to work with the company's leadership team on future brand-lead marketing and promotional efforts.
Working with Quill on our annual report always leaves us with a compelling and impactful piece that helps tell our story and illustrate how we are living out our mission. We are always excited to share the finished product with our donors and partners.

In 1921, a time when household appliances were just beginning to emerge, Harry Miller opened up a small shop in Chicago where he distributed appliances. He had a great relationship with Speed Queen as they were starting their operations and grew a name for himself specifically for that laundry equipment.
Fast forward to today and they're now looking back at 100 years of company history. Harry Miller appliances is still selling quality appliances at affordable prices and Coin-O-Matic, their commercial laundry division, is supplying and servicing equipment and providing relationships with customers across four states. Recently, one of their suppliers created a shift in the market and the Harry Miller family of companies wanted to ensure their namesake wouldn’t get lost in the shuffle.

Over the last year I've had the pleasure of working with Quill Creative Studio to refresh the brand of my family's business which is celebrating its 100th anniversary in 2021. On a scale of 100 for expectations I’d humbly give Quill a score of 200… The discovery, creative and implementation stages could not have gone smoother from my perspective as your typical/busy business owner. Quill invested the time to truly understand my company's history, personality, character, products, services and most importantly our customer base. The end product has taken our brand to a level that I frankly believe to be genius.
