About Carrboro Creative

Branding and websites for organizations that do good

From North Carolina, Carrboro Creative offers branding and web design to nonprofits, businesses and public bodies around Chapel Hill, Durham and Raleigh. Its track record is more than 150 projects across eight-plus years, and it builds websites on WordPress so that clients can run them without help.

Brand strategy and visual identity

The agency starts by working out what makes an organization different and how it should describe itself, then builds logos and full brand systems. Its aim is branding that reflects the real character of the organization rather than an image it feels it should project. Renames and brand guidelines are part of the offer.

Websites clients can maintain

Sites are professional, accessible and easy to use, and clients can update their own content. The agency designs them to serve each organization's goals, whether that means attracting inquiries or drawing volunteers and donors.

Print and marketing materials

The agency designs business cards, signage, brochures and advertising banners, either as one-off projects or as ongoing support, so that marketing matches the brand.

Recent projects

One project is a rebrand of a regional government council with a 60-year history. It gained a new name, a new identity and a messaging strategy after its members struggled to communicate a shared identity. The agency says the name was chosen to suit members both urban and rural, and that it produced brand guidelines alongside the communications plan.

Another is brand strategy, visual identity and website design for an arts hub that has supported creativity in Carrboro for decades. The agency says it refreshed the organization's look with a retro-meets-modern identity while keeping what made it special.

A third is an identity and website for a pharmaceutical manufacturer expanding across Africa, which needed to look credible to partners and regulators while staying separate from its nonprofit parent. The agency built a brand system that separates the two entities.
