TAMPA, FL (August 19, 2024) — The Environmental Graphic Design (EGD) Studio at Creative Sign Designs is pleased to announce the addition of Amy Gullickson — who has spent the last decade developing wayfinding signage systems and creating efficient and consistent processes across multiple, dynamic design teams.
In her new role, Amy will manage all internal and external EGD project timelines as well as oversee quality control for the department. Additionally, Amy will be tasked with evolving the standard operating procedures within the department to better support client needs.
“We are excited to elevate our approach and demonstrate increased responsiveness to clients’ needs through the expansion of our EGD Studio,” said Jamie Harden, President and CEO at Creative Sign Designs. “This expansion, supported by Amy’s experience and expertise, is going to enhance our clients’ creative visions – by bringing streamlined processes and technologies to the forefront, capitalizing on all opportunities to feature client originality.”
The Environmental Graphic Design Studio exists to bring each client’s vision to life in a way that enhances the visitors’ experience: leaving a positive, lasting impression. The studio was created in 2018 and has since worked on projects like Feeding Tampa Bay, USF Honors College, Hewanorra International Airport and Renata at Lakewood Ranch. Having an EGD studio in-house has allowed CSD to streamline the design process, particularly during the initial phases of a project.
Alongside the hiring of Amy, Alicia Hanson, is transitioning into a new role as EGD Studio Creative Lead. Alicia is a 25-year EGD veteran and will provide creative direction for the studio moving forward: overseeing all aspects of the design process from Concept Creation to Design Development. In addition, Alicia will be responsible for developing and maintaining the vision for the studio, ensuring all projects are aligned with client’s overall aesthetic and brand identity.
“During her time with us, Alicia has already demonstrated an unmatched ability to bring creative visions to life,” said Adam Wold, Director of Project Development at Creative Sign Designs. “We look forward to her continued growth here and are excited to see the new projects she touches in the studio.”
In her efforts, Alicia will also support Amy to ensure quality control across all EGD Studio output. Both Alicia and Amy will report to our Director of Project Development.
