West Wash Park Local Flavor Guide

About the Neighborhood

This project is part of the Local Flavor Guide series produced by the Mile High Business Alliance. The West Wash Park neighborhood covers a large area of southeast Denver: Speer Blvd to I-25 and Broadway Blvd. to Downing St. West Wash Park is full of tiny pockets of businesses all nestled in by big stretches of residential area. The art direction for this guide, as always is to give a good feel of the neighborhood. You can download a pdf of the guide from MHBA’s site.

My Role in this Project

I designed the overall look for the guide series and each individual guide. The images used in each guide is a combination of photography that I shot, illustrations I drew, and some stock images. Click through the thumbnails above to see the finished guide and the photos I took for it.
