HAPA

Branding for one of Hawaii’s most celebrated bands in Hawaii, HAPA. Our biggest project was a collaboration with native Hawaiian artists Solomon Enos and Barry Flanagan of HAPA to create HAPA – MAUI. Designing the look and feel for this reinvented band was based on Maui the Demi-God. This project involved a deal with PBS to produce a DVD and live album to coordinate with the release of this album (Hosted by Peter Fonda). HAPA Maui garnered several awards including a prestigious Pele design award for packaging and also a Na Hoku Hanohano award for album design. This also led to a collaboration for a Japan and Korea release of three albums with Honolulu Coffee Co, where we created all of the promo as well as the album designs.
