Bringing the vibrant spirit of Seattle to the eclectic streets of Venice Beach – that was the challenge ODN presented to us for Visit Seattle’s 'I Know a Place' campaign. And with two perfectly placed walls, we were ready to bring it to life.
Our first mural, an eye-catching depiction of Seattle's iconic skyline, dominates our high-traffic wallscape on Ocean Front Walk (LA-27). This prime location is a client favorite because passersby can't miss it. It's the perfect spot for beachgoers to look up and discover a skyline that's a world away from Venice Beach—a reminder of all the different experiences Seattle has to offer.
A short stroll from bustling Ocean Front Walk, tucked among Windward Avenue's art galleries and cafes, you'll discover our second mural on LA-08. This street-level creation features a playful orca, a symbol of the Pacific Northwest, swimming in a sea of Seattle icons – a guitar, majestic mountains, a bicycle, and more. The mural is wrapped in a "Come As You Are" message, reflecting the city's inclusive and welcoming spirit.
Our hand painted murals were the ideal medium for this tourism campaign. First, they echo the energy of Seattle's thriving art scene (there are 50 new murals in downtown Seattle!), and Visit Seattle is actively promoting the city's commitment to supporting local artists. Second, Visit Seattle's mission is to showcase the city's authentic charm, and what better way to do that than with authentic hand painted art?
This campaign shows we can deliver any style, from bold and graphic to intricate and detailed. We brought the same level of passion and precision to both. The result? Two murals that capture the spirit of Seattle and inspire visitors to explore a new destination. Ultimately, that's what it's all about: creating art that connects, inspires, and invites discovery.
