Moving and Shaking
To keep up with future growth plans, we’re moving into a new office on Friday, October 3rd. The new space is in the same building (The Eagles Building, 6th & Idaho), but on the lower level. The new Carew Co. mothership is about three times the size, offering lots of room to spread out and…
The Best Way to Help the Most People
The creative team consisted of David Cook (SMG), Kristy Weyhrich (W Design), Dave Sloyer (Wirestone), Paul Carew (me) and our wonderful clients at United Way of Treasure Valley (It’s important to mention that the video work was donated by NXNW and the photography donated by Todd Meier). The campaign, titled “The Best Way to Help…
Making the most of “thank you”
Earlier this year, we made an in-kind donation to The Cabin (formerly known as “The Log Cabin Literary Center”). Carew Co. is an official sponsor of the Alexander McCall Smith appearance at The Egyptian as part of the annual “Readings & Conversations” series. That said, this blog post is not meant to toot our horns…

It was a behemoth project with many technology upgrades and new functionalities. It was a well-planned and organized affair on both sides of the fence — a true client/agency collaboration. We’re thrilled with the final results and very proud of the work. The success of this project was mainly due to tons of technical planning…
Why Idaho Needs AIGA
This is great news, but how can it really help the Idaho design community? What does AIGA do as an organization to help the design community? AIGA is about breaking barriers — locally, do you really know other designers from other agencies? Boise is such a (strangely) competitive market. This can be difficult for practicing…
Martini Mix Off
I enjoyed total creative freedom and was able to execute an illustrative concept — something I don’t do as often as I’d like. When I started Carew Co. in July, I called up the folks in charge of the event and volunteered to design the poster. I requested both creative freedom and the ability to…
