Don’t put off marketing
Phew, these past few weeks have been a rollercoaster! So, get this - every year, our team picks a theme that kinda sums up what we need to zero in on.
This time around, we went with “marketing.” Why?
Intersections: A Panel on Latin Art & Design
Immerse yourself in an evening celebrating the vibrant world of Latin American art and design. We're thrilled to host Dominican designers Javier Reyes and Eleazar Ruiz, both trailblazers who've founded their own design practices. They'll share their unique journeys, exploring how their Latin American roots have profoundly influenced their creative processes and shaped their remarkable careers.

A New Identity for “BIPOC Adoptees”
In 2022, Liana Soifer, a transracial adoptee born in South Korea and raised in Oregon, approached Odd Notion with a vision. Her goal was to transform her fundraiser campaign for a docuseries exploring BIPOC adoptees' lives into a media company.
A New Identity for “Better Portland”
Congratulations to our partner Better Portland on their brand relaunch! Last year, Better Portland asked for our help to rethink and relaunch their organization after several significant changes.
A New Identity for “My Daddy’s Sauce”
Back in 2021, we met Willis Anderson III, a retired chef who was selling his homemade BBQ sauce at farmers markets. Seeing the potential in his product, we encouraged Willis to apply for our Dream Night initiative, which helps minority-led brands with branding and websites.

A New Identity for “Our Next Keller” Campaign
The Keller Auditorium, a historic cultural landmark in downtown Portland, faced the possibility of either renovation or replacement. Our Next Keller campaign aimed to secure City Council approval for the renovation by demonstrating broad community support and the myriad benefits of preserving this iconic venue.
A New Identity for Interplay, a social impact consultancy.
Late last year, we teamed up with Interplay Collective, a social impact consultancy focused on creating justice-driven solutions for people, places, and our planet.
