Replace worked with Cuningham Group to create a brand for a new hotspot within the community of Hastings Minnesota.

The typography was influenced by letterforms found on some products The Hudson Manufacturing Company produced 50+ years ago. The historic building and it’s surrounding area provided the perfect content to create an illustration library to elevate the identity system.
